We enjoyed our breakfast in the camp kitchen at the Porongurup Caravan Park before heading off again . The weather was looking OK for the moment, so we took our chances and headed off to walk the track to Castle Rock. The track was delightful. Just enough climb to know that we were alive withoutContinue reading “28/8/21 – Castle Rock, and finally we arrive at Tozer’s Bush Camp”

27/8/21 – Heading for the Stirling Ranges
This was pretty much a rainy and cold day from start to finish. We decided to just have our rain jackets ready and see how we went. When I started planning for this big trip the Stirling Ranges was a place that I already had in my head as somewhere I really wanted to getContinue reading “27/8/21 – Heading for the Stirling Ranges”
26/8/21 – Farm, friends and relatives
We enjoyed a wonderful hot shower and cooked breakfast(Thankyou Meri!!) before heading out with Codge to have a look at his place. Codge and Meri were babysitting puppies for one of their sons while he was away so, after a look at the town to get the feel of the place (and to confirm forContinue reading “26/8/21 – Farm, friends and relatives”
25/8/21 Rellies and Friends with a sprinkle of art.
After leaving Perth, we headed out to the South along the very efficient freeway with the train line in the centre. We stopped for lunch at the Miami Bakehouse at Myalup where , along with a very delicious pie each (with fancy name on them to avoid confusion) we found lots of painted kangaroos inContinue reading “25/8/21 Rellies and Friends with a sprinkle of art.”
21/8/21 – 25/8/21 Perth friends and family
I’m rolling these few days into one blog post as there wasn’t much touring done – it was mostly just being with special people that we care about and don’t see often enough. We enjoyed our hot showers at Dandaragan in their amazing ablutions block and heated croissants on the public bbq in pioneer parkContinue reading “21/8/21 – 25/8/21 Perth friends and family”
30/7/21-Weano Gorge and Hancock Gorge
As we drove the very corrugated road across to our next day of Karijini adventure we admired the beautiful purple Mulla Mullas so beautifully arranged on the road verges and the striking white trunks of snappy gums against the red of the rock and pale green of the spinifex. Hancock gorge was our first targetContinue reading “30/7/21-Weano Gorge and Hancock Gorge”
16/7/21 Mount Hart to Windjana Gorge
We had a quiet start despite a very early wake up ( compliments of the small noisy children camping next to us). Al and Zita had already gone when we went past the resort on our way out. We passed them quite a long way along the GRR just as we were thinking about morningContinue reading “16/7/21 Mount Hart to Windjana Gorge”
2/7/21 Ellenbrae to Drysdale River.
Today we started our day with a walk across to the Ringers campground from our Jackeroos camp, so that we could have a look at the swimming hole there. The others went for a swim there but we decided not to. We did have a good look at the lovely shaded area for meals andContinue reading “2/7/21 Ellenbrae to Drysdale River.”
26/6/21 Rum, views, bowerbirds and a fond farewell
The days start early in the caravan park the sun is getting up,and so are the travellers, who have places to be. The couple beside us wanted to be at El Questro (100 km away) so of course they had to be up making a lot of noise by 5:45. Hence we were also wideContinue reading “26/6/21 Rum, views, bowerbirds and a fond farewell”
25/6/21 Out of the Bungles
Before we left there were just a couple more things we needed to do, so after the pack up we walked off from our campground on the little loop walk that Ev had recommended. We were really glad that we did. It was surprising how much could be seen and learnt from the signs inContinue reading “25/6/21 Out of the Bungles”
