Wildlife Extravaganza in Western Australia ( 7/14 )DAY 8 ~ Sunday
Having had enough of ‘civilization’ we headed up to Cape Range, where it was more wild and there were campsites that were au naturel! On the road to Exmouth we discovered that we had a sizeable chip in our windscreen and that the crack was spreading. So we thought we ought [...]
DAY 6 ~ Friday
It was time to move on again. Sadly we missed the first ’round’ of dolphins but didn’t want to leave until we’d said ‘goodbye’. They eventually came about 10.30 and we said our farewells before we hit the road.
On the way back to the highway we stopped to see a [...]

Wildlife Extravaganza in Western Australia ( 4/4 )DAY 4 ~ Wednesday
Got organised early so that we could get on the road, as well as to stop and see the pelicans being fed. We arrived early and there were three enormous pelicans waiting on the beach. They waddled towards us thinking

We had to return [...]
DAY 14 ~ Saturday
Well, we decided that we would just have to take it easy and relax today. Ian fulfilled his dream and we had a four-wheel drive along Cable Beach. It took us about half an hour to figure out to get the damn thing into 4 wheel drive mode!
After a few [...]
DAY 13 ~ Friday
It was another cold and windy night, bbbrrrrr! We had a refreshing walk on the beach before we headed off for the last leg of our journey to Broome! This was by far the dullest of all the drives. The only highlight was when we passed some pools by the roadside [...]
