After a long, boring 7hr drive from Exmouth we finally arrived at Karratha but had we known what was in store we would have booked a room!!! After trying every backpackers, motel, hotel, campsite there was in the town we resided to the fact that we would probably be sleeping in the car again. Then we stumbled across a campsite we hadnt tried but again, yes you've guessed it, they had no vacancies either but they did however 'know someone that knows someone' that ...

We arrived in Exmouth at about 2:30pm on 27.07.08 after what was and exciting driving up (thats not sarcasim for a change) on the way up the peninsula, it was Rachs turn to drive when our tyre decided to completely blow out, the noice was horrific and Rach screamed (again) 'What is that SOPHIE!!"

As per my previous entry we thought we would be travelling from Monkey Mia to Coral bay which is about 200km south of Exmouth. We woke up bright and early ready to leave Monkey Mia, we left at about 9am hoping to arrive in Coral Bay before 5pm (you dont drive the West Coast after this time as Kangaroos have a death wish and just hop out in front of you!)

The following morning we woke up bright and early at 7am to go down for the first Dolphin feed of the d...

20/07/08 The Drive to Kalbarri National Park from Cervantes is yet again a boring one. It was750km of long, straight boring roads. The only exciting thing to happen in the journey was when a Road Train Went past and knocked our window trim off with the force of the wind!!! I pulled over and Rach had to lift it up as it had trapped me in, So I just fixed it back on with some Gaffa Tape which seems to have done the trick for the time being. On the way up to Kalbar...
