Exmouth to Busselton




















In the last three weeks we have driven from Exmouth to Busselton. What a change of scenery! We have gone from red dust desert to green grass and trees again, love it! We just loved Exmouth and Coral Bay, went snorkeling and enjoyed the beach. Benn went diving again, this time with Grey Nurse sharks etc. After Coral Bay we then drove to Canarvon, a one nighter, then on to Monkey Mia. Had a wonderful time with the Dolphins, Jacinta even got to feed one. We meet a lovely family at Monkey Mia, they have been on the road for 2 years! After Monkey Mia we then moved down to Geraldton. Absolutely loved Geradton, fantastic playground and beaches. Definitely would like to come back to visit sometime.

After Geraldton we made it to the long awaited Perth/Fremantle!! Took us a while to get used to the 'city' again, we arrived in peak hour traffic it was our lastest arrival yet at 6 pm! Not good to get set up then dinner on at that time! During our time at Fremantle we visited museums, parks, beaches, walked the Fremantle coffee strip, Markets, and Scitech (similar to Questacon in Canberra). We even went to the Perth Royal Show. We had a wonderful time.

We arrived in Busselton on Wednesday, fantastic caravan park! As is school holidays heaps of kids here, so it has been great social boost for us all. Kids are loving having friends again, we had 8 kids visit us in the caravan yesterday..... sausage rolls for all. We went to Margaret River today, absolutely beautiful. Managed to visit a winery picked up a couple of bottles of wine, also a chocolate company, bought some delicious chocolate! Also visited Mammoth Cave, similar to Jenolan Caves in the Blue Mts (but smaller) just fantastic!
