We are really enjoying having a break in Perth after all the long drives. We've decided to stay here and properly chill out for two weeks before embarking on a journey across land to Wave Rock and then onto Esperance on the south coast. From here we will be working our way slowly around the coast back to Perth. I am really looking forward to showing the Jay the dramatic beauty of the south west of Australia. We got up late today and apart from a drive out to the ...

The rain had stopped by the morning and it was a gorgeous day. After brekky we caught the bus and train combo into the city. We had a bit of a mooch around the city centre and then we caught another train to Fremantle. We had a look around the market hall and then we walked to the Little Creatures Brew Pub on the harbour front with the intention of having a beer and some lunch. When I had visited Little Creatures back in October it was lovely and chilled and I ha...

It was another chill out day today. Apart from a trip to Woolies at the Karrinyup Centre to get some food we didn't do much. It was quite cold with an overcast sky and by the evening rain had set in.

"Everything in your life is a reflection of a choice you have made. If ...

I am very proud of Jay as through my encouragement she now really enjoys going on long walks and hiking. She walks up steep hills now without gaspin...

We got up late today and decided to have a day at home. Apart from going for a shower and to the loo we didn't leave the camper van all day. We just slobbed out and played with our new toys. We took our new GPS, Les, out of his box and had a friendly chat with him about the dangers of drinking too much pop. We hope to goodness that he doesn't go the same way as Bruce and Mick. We are going to leave Les alone for a while to settle in before giving him his first mi...
