Quest on James Perth

... approaching Perth about 20 kms out we still felt like we were in the country.  The GPS led us beautifully to the Discovery Caravan Park at Forrestfield near the airport and we had a good site right at the back next to another Crossroads Cruiser.  On the other side was thi s enormous bus called a Denning.  It was huge!  Steve got talking to Conrad who owned it and it had everything in it.  I can only remember 16 batteries (we have 2).  When the guys ...

... to Danay.........he was to return at 10:30AM the next day and take us to the station.

We headed for the pool.........nice and private......and very refreshing.

Just on sunset we reappeared .......... walked thru the gardens of the Sofitel Centara Grand.......the first hotel built in Hua Hin back in the 1920's......very oppulent and for those familiar with........... in the Raffles Hotel Singapore style.

... an eerie 3D experience – whilst the elegant turtles calmly paddled past, the sight of a full set of shark teeth heading straight towards your head was slightly unnerving. Such was the pull of this setting, we remained ensconsced, completing several “laps” and taking far too many video clips.

Leaving the aquarium, the Dome cafe again provided the chance for wi-fi access, before leaving to catch the bus back to the Warwick ...

... have been!
Laura and Kelse also took me to Burswood Casino, which we nearly didn't get into coz Kelse was wearing cammos due to a massive leg brace round her knee coz it was dislocated. They asked if she had any shorts she could wear. Why is it okay to wear shorts but now cammos!?
But yeh, we batted out eyelashes and got in. I was too scared to battle it out on the tables so promptly put $20 into machines which I didn't understand. French & Saunders were playing right ...

... at Nerren Nerren where we did lots of reading but couldn't really get out of the van. Then we had a day at Kalbarri before spending that night at Port Gregory, a small fishing village down the coast from Kalbarri. We figured that would be easier than trying to get accommodation in Kalbarri during school holidays. That was a nice sunny day which we haven't had too many of since we left home. There has been a lot of rain and we saw a lot of water lying on the road as we travelled ...

... things including scarey looking spiders! In the same national park we walked down to Natures window - a rock formation that frames the amazing view over the gorges - great photo opportunities! The roads in the national park were really bumpy, so much so that some of the beers I had bought the night before shook up and blew their tops so we had a bit of a beer Tsunami at the back of the bus! Whoops!! Once back on solid tarmac it was a bit smoother and we continued ...

... goes and bring you some photos to see. There's a little animal called a Quokka there which is only found in a few other places to my knowledge, Rottnest being the most popular. Looks like a smaller, fatter version of a wallaby so I'm excited to check that out. Also, I know people will probably think I'm a tool for posting this if you've already heard about it but it made...like my life... ok? So I'm telling the world! Well I've been watching a lot of the ...

Non posso credere che sono qui da ormai due mesi. Doveva essere qualche giorno, sono diventate settimane. Cercare di raccontare tutto quello che e' successo e' pura utopia; quello che posso offrire e' qualche puntata, una sorta di "il meglio di", tanto per rendere l'idea dei giorni passati in questa casa. E proprio dalla casa direi che e' il caso di cominciare, ovvero da LA "PIKEY HOUSE" ED I SUOI INQUILINI Perche' pikey? Beh, non credo esista termine piu' appropriato per questa casa ...

... states. As per the dog parks, plenty of bags are available for you to clean up after your dog. Perth Gordon's dog, Jake, loves to run on the beach and is a very strong swimmer. He's quite comfortable at swimming out 30 metres to say hello to me beyond the breakers. He'll swim out to you several times and return to shore quite refreshed. WA drivers are also worth a mention here folks. Their habit of not indicating their intentions is a ...

... nous déplacer et nous logeons au camping, où nous avons ressorti la bonne vieille tente. Après trois jours intenses de recherches, nous sommes complètement découragés car les seuls véhicules que nous trouvons sont soit trop petits, soit trop chers, et bien souvent revendus par des concessionnaires réputés comme étant de vrais arnaqueurs qui rachettent ces véhicules pour une bouchée de pain aux backpackers, en enlèvent toutes les pièces encore à peu près bonnes et les ...
