With more than 100 campgrounds in National Parks, Western Australia (WA) offers plenty in the way of bush and remote camping experiences. Where we are at the Milligan Island Camping Node, north of Green Head is one of the best we’ve been to, and within a few hundred metres of the warm waters of the…
The outback desert regions have a way of reminding us of our in/significance in the role of intriguing land formations. The sheer size and solitude are eerie and today a soft breeze shushed through these bizarre rock formations adding to the sense of isolation. Handing us the route map, the park would like walkers to…
It rained heavily overnight, which we were expecting, and eased in the morning as we started our pack up from Nannup, Western Australia (WA) campsite to the next stop at Pemberton, 90 km south. This has been a great spot, set amidst a large forest and abundant birdlife. There was a lot to keep us…
13th February we left home heading to Adelaide (South Australia) and then west. Today marks 100 days on the road and 8, 000 kms. We’d like to say we’ve been travelling most of that time but COVID-19 had us bunkered down in Busselton, Western Australia, for seven weeks. We held our breath, used hand sanitizer…
We’re starting to see a slackening of restrictions and pondering next moves. There’s an excitement around the campground. People huddle around great maps of Australia considering the next stop in information exchanges about must-sees and dos. State borders that closed at the start of the pandemic, remain so, as are regional borders here in Western…
I’ll fess up … this post has little to do with the letter “X” – apart from the fact it marks this time as one of the year’s Sweet Spots. No, it’s not good that people are dying and others are quite unwell with COVID-19 symptoms. But there is much to commend this time. How…
Western Australia (WA) is the largest state in Australia covering an area of some 2, 500,000 sq km and 2, 400 km from north to south. The population is most concentrated in the state’s capital city of Perth. When state borders closed in the first week of April we became temporary residents of WA until…
Stirling’s affluence is evident the moment you turn off the freeway and slow down to a suburban pace. The homes, boutique shops, street sculptures and town planning all point to an old part of the Adelaide Hills that has been moneyed since the first house was built. The town was founded in 1854. Its rapid…
It’s Sunday and it’s catch up day. Yesterday passed in a haze of inertia with little to commend it except the family block of dark chocolate kit kat we demolished. I know. It was a down day. But today’s post is planned for the letter P not C for chocolate or K for Kit Kat…
Oceans is one of a series of posts during April as I participate in the annual A-Z Blogging Challenge. The poem was written by Pat A Fleming and used with thanks and gratitude. You can find other poems by her here. The photographs are my own. Seagulls soar above her surf,The sun reflects and gleams,While…
