a long road.

today we drove from kalbarri to carnarvon – 440 km with just a few roadhouses in between. not even a small village, no houses or farms either. just road. a last look at the mouth of the murchison from the zuytdorp memorial. the boat ramp is inside the river and it is pretty clear that…

clouds.

the weather forecast for the last few days was alarming. heavy rains and damaging winds across most of the western australian coast, from kalbarri all the way to the south. perth was going to get a good drenching which was ok because they had a dry autumn so far. probably because of that the people…

let there be light.

when we got the disco ready for our trip there was one addition we decided to give a miss: driving lights or spotties as us aussies like call them. there were a few reasons: we really didn’t want to be on the road after dark. no matter what lights you have, the roo that you…

by sea and by air.

shark bay is a great place, if you haven’t had a chance to get there have a look at some photos here and here (nat’s report about her very special time in shark bay). we did have a little time to kill because of the latest in a series of land rover spare parts that…

shark bay.

despite it’s name sharks are not the main attraction here. there are, however, so many other things to see in shark bay it’s hard to know where to start. so let’s back right up. we left horrocks – which as a special nod to nat, harry potter’s greatest fan, we called horcrux – and briefly…

on the road again.

thank god. we love perth but our visit there was a bit longer than we were prepared for due to a bit of an issue with the car. the gearbox has now been re-manufactured, i.e. the parts that were not designed as well as they could/should have been have been replaced with improved items and…
