Something to contemplate

Don't dream of where you see yourself in 10 or 20 years, start your journey today so you'll have a story to tell when you get there.....

on the road to esperance

Our first night camping at ballingup one of our fav towns while on the bibblumun colm again being chief cook and bottle washer!

Second night we spent at albany but due to the inclement weather we stayed in a hostel, here is greens pool not far from william bay campsite on the bib track

Amazing you could not have planned it if you tried we bumped into douglas in esperance, he is traveling around aust on his bike and from carnarvon we were just out for a bike ride around the coastal strip, the lycra set is alive and well ha ha. At this present time douglas has camped next to us but we have not seen him, perhaps he fell asleep early hopefully we will catch up with him in the morning.


View from the jetty it was threatening rain but only light sprinkles

The view of the beaches on the bike ride and yes these are hills you have to ride up ahhhh its been 2 months since I have been on a bike ride

We saw dolphins frolicking in the sea and it is so pristine the ocean here

Yes I rode here and survived, think that walking is easier now

What a fine specimen of a man and cycle up hills heck he makes it look easy and what a view as well

Had to go out to lucky bay as well in the national park, it has been voted the whitest beach

Views from the beach, pristine water

If you look real hard you can see the remnants of a rainbow near that archipelago at lucky bay

I f no one hears from me I will be suffering from hypothermia.....the water was cold but apparently according to colm it was warm once your in...k?  Also the water is so transparent I had a look and thought ohh nearly stepped on a crab on the way out fortunately he wandered away

He's getting sustagen okay to put some more meat on those bones......

Last view of the archipelago we were enjoying a hot coffee at this time, reward after the swim....tomorrow off on the nullabor
