Stuck in the sand

Well today was certainly a stressful one! Woke up and left for Broome first thing and arrived at 8am. First stop was to the Visitor Centre to ask them for some advice on the free campsites just north of the town. It said on our map, that 4WDs were recommended to drive along the road to get...

Lots of driving

We left camp at 6:30am this morning, the flies were out once again and the only thing we could do was leave as quick as possible for Port Hedland. But, Port Hedland was a bit boring with very little to do, so we soon moved on and drove for Miles to get a little closer to Broome so we could...

Karijini National Park

Woke up early to see that the Dales Gorge is now open, so that was our first stop in the Karijini National Park. It was really beautiful and took a long walk down to Fortescue Falls and went for a refreshing cool off in the water below. Then after we dried off took a 3km...

A lot of driving

First thing we set off for Tom Price and Karijini National Park. A lot of driving but it was worth it. We decided to go straight inside the park and spend the night there and found a huge camping ground for $7pp per night. It was a lovely sight, although busy. We considered going...

5ft Black tipped reef shark

Woke up bright and early at 6:15am to get away as early as possible to try and secure a place to sleep in the Cape Range National Park, but unfortunately as we lent 2 hard-core travellers our tent for the night as they only had a sheet of tarpaulin to sleep under we had to wait for them to wake...

Crowded Coral Bay

We decided to make our way up to Coral Bay today to do some snorkelling, so after a lot of driving we made it to find it full of people as it is the school holidays and there was nowhere to stay for less than $38 which put us off, and with no free campsites around we thought we had better...

Rainy day, broken convertor & broken shower

Woke up again early leaving the North of Geraldton headed straight to Horrocks, but nothing was particularly interesting there so we headed to Port Gregory to see The Pink Lake, which was pretty amazing. But unfortunately it was raining and the sky was pretty black and if it was blue the...

The amazing Pinnacles

Woke up at 6am this morning and left straight away headed for ‘The Pinnacles’. We had read that the best times to see them are either at dawn or dusk so we decided to bite the bullet and get up first thing, 1) So we could make the most of the day and 2) So the Ranger doesn’t find us parking...

Bye Gill! xx

We left Fremantle once again but this time heading North. It was sad to say goodbye to Gill and Jo as we have no idea when we will next see them again! We’ll miss you! Unsurprisingly we left a lot later than planned and did some more ‘essential’ shopping for the van along the way. ...

Trees which you can live inside!

This morning we headed to see some ting ting trees which are famous for having large holes in the bottom near Nornalup. People even used to live in the bottoms of them, supposedly. We chickened out of going up the tree top walkway, but after speaking to a couple of others about it,...
