Inside a Tingle Tree

Hello! We have been in Albany for a while now as the Toyota broke down Friday before last! Still waiting for it to be fixed, we are all getting itchy feet to move on!

After Busselton we drove through Pemerton where the kids climbed some of the way up the Gloucester Tree. We then went on to stay at Walpole which was a beautiful area, the land of the Giants. These giants are huge red and yellow tingle trees and just amazing to walk the tree top walk. While at Walpole we also got a chance to take the tinny out on the Franklin River and saw a huge stingray which we feed with the remaining bait left over from Benn catching two south western black brim.

We spent 3 nights at Walpole then moved on to Albany. Really enjoying it here, we visited Whaleworld and the wind farm (in a hire car as the truck broke down by now), and have met many lovely people.

After we realised the truck might take a while to fix, we took the hire car up to Wave Rock near Hyden. It was amazing to see, the kids even were filmed by a TV crew filming for Travel Oz which will air Monday night 22nd November at 6pm, very cool.

We then went on to Kalgoorlie spending two nights so got to have a good look around. Saw the superpit gold mine, just massive. The streets are so wide and lots of red dirt once again. Very interesting place.

After Kalgoorlie we went through Esperance and then back to Albany. Loved Esperance, beautiful town and beaches. The kids had a great morning jumping down the sand dunes to the beach (photo). We should be heading off acrosst the Nullaboor in a few days!
