Dave & Trish John - Guess which park we are in at Esperance? When the first train blew it's horn in the middle of the night we both jumped and almost filled our pants :) Not only that but they are sinking the railway line so during the day there are beeping reversing trucks and to top it all off it is wheat harvesting time so plenty of trucks engine braking down to the corner. We are m,ore protected from the winds in this park and stil enjoying ourselves despite the above comments. Will work on the rude photos - thought about streaking in Streaky bay but never got around to it. Good to hear from you and hope all is well.
re: Riding Through a Furnace: The Nullarbor.
John B Good to see you are still in there with your sense of humour in tact after all those mediocre van parks....we found Karumba overrun with smug Victorians but locved Venus Bay even in winter. Our daughter raved about Esperence when she lived in Kalgoolie for 4 years (their local beach) - unfortunately we booked into a Caravan Park adjacent to a railway shunting yard - not good....very windy...now don;t forget that Valley of the Giants around Pemberton A Good read which has fleshed out the essence of many a spot....not enough rude photos in exotic locales!!

re: A New Tent!
Georgina I'm glad you checked out the Arid Gardens - they're quite pretty in my opinion. And the peas are still flowering lol! You were unlucky with the museums - they must prefer the touristy times of the year as we saw a few in January... See you soon - mind out for roos on the great sandy paddock between us and them! x Georgina

re: What better place for "The Intrepids" to celebrate their 4th Wedding Anniversary
Julie Hitchens Hi Trish and Dave, I have been laughing so much while I catch up on several months of your blog. With all the gem stones and rocks you are buying, I hope you are sending them home by post as the trailer much be in need of new shock avsorbers. I was shocked to see little Orelena in hospital. I hope she is much better and home with mummy and daddy. Keep up the good work with your blog. Love to you both. Julie
