The Pinnacles & Cervantes
The Pinnacles & Cervantes Slight detour north before we do the south west corner as we all wanted to visit the Pinnacles. It was very impressive as it goes for kilometres all these limestone pillars set in a desert and some are over 3m tall. Stopped in at the Lobster Shack for lunch great food […]
Perth, Fremantle & Rottnest Island
Perth, Fremantle & Rottnest Island Quokka Simon ran the Perth marathon 5 hours 30 mins not a great time but it was very difficult to get the training in up north as it was so hot. Good effort Mr H. Met up with friends from Brisbane Ann and Simon who did the bridge climb up […]
Mullewa, Pindar, Mingenew, Coalseam Conservation Park
WARNING – Flower Lovers ONLY Mullewa & Pindar My favourite few days, we went on the flower trails. We are a few weeks late and the flowers are starting to go to seed but it far exceeded my expectations. There were literally seas of flowers. Finally got to see wreath flowers. They pop up on […]
Geraldton
Geraldton Simon loved it here as there were more big ships and trains. It is lovely town with lots of great beaches along the front but it was so windy. Got another sandblasting yet again. Visited the Big Marble which was not so big! On the way out we stopped off at Hutt Lagoon which […]
Kalbarri
Kalbarri Went to see the famous Natures Window not quite the same having your picture taken with fly nets but they were everywhere, trying to get in your mouth and eyes, so they stayed on. Visited the Skywalk very nicely done it blends in with the rock. Beautiful national park. Previous Next
Denham & Monkey Mia

Steep Point
Steep Point This is the most western point of Australia and the last point of the compass for us to complete. It was 125 kms of 4 wheel driving so we left the caravan in a layby. Simon set off running the first 15kms at 7am before it got too hot. He had to wear […]
Point Billie
Point Billie near Ningaloo This is a National Park camp right on the reef. We came in via Exmouth and down through Cape Range National Park. It was all going well until we got to Yardie Creek where we got bogged in some seriously soft sand. Took us 1.5 hours to dig ourselves out and […]
Port Hedland
Port Hedland & Karatha Warning – Excessive number of train photos Simon is ecstatic we are in train heaven. First up we had to go and check out the times of the ships coming into port. These ships are so big they are called Cape class as they are too big to fit down the […]
