Wave Rock was fantastic, absolutely spectacular. It was so high and curled over like a really huge wave in the ocean. We all tried to climb up the wave as far as we could go with most of us sliding back down on our bottoms lol. The guys started competing who could run up and touch the highest spot they could lol. Not sure who ended up winning in the end. We then climbed up some stairs to the top of the wave, the rock was massive. We walked around seeing different things on top including large balancing boulders, a rock shaped like a lounge chair and a sandlewood tree. We then went down from the rock and followed a path to see hippo's yawn, which was a rock and cave that looked like a hippo ... read more

After leaving Augusta we traveled along Caves Road towards Margaret River. Along this road and around this region are over 200 caves hidden within the Limestone ridge, thus the name Caves Road. We stopped at Jewel Cave and did a tour. The cave once had an underground lake and the water and made the formations appear to glitter like jewels. The cave last had water in it around 9 years ago. The day was very rainy so we decided to go as far as Margaret River and stay there the night. Around Margaret River is beautiful country with wineries everywhere, green rolling hills with cows. I really liked the country but the town didn't overly impress me. The next morning we did the touristy thing and went to a cheese factory where we all tried some ... read more

This is our fourth night in Albany, we decided to stay 4 as the caravan park gave us a deal to pay for 3 and stay 4 nights, and as there is so much to see here we decided to take the deal. The first couple of days and nights in Albany were very very wet, with rain, hail and lots of wind. We figured we were actually experiencing Albany's proper winter, I am just soooo glad we didn't tent again this year!! On the first day we went to see Whale World, which is an ex whaling station that closed in 1978, having been the last one to close in Australia. While there we learned about the whaling history of the area, and saw where they brought theminto the station and how they cut them ... read more

Its been about 3 days since I have had internet or phone as we have just crossed the Nullarbor from SA to WA. We are now in Esperance. There were many interesting things to see while crossing the Nullarbor and it was definitly not anything like Nathan and I imagined. For one thing there had been rain so it was mostly green, and not desert like we thought it would be. The Nullarbor plain is massive area of limestone rock where no trees will grow. Underneath the rock are many caves and river/lakes. We were going to stop at some caves and go in but weren't able to find the road to them, we did happen to see a blow hole though, which is a hole down into the rock for the caves to breath. When ... read more

Hi again, We are tonight somewhere between Port Augusta and Port Lincoln in South Australia, its very deserty looking. We are staying at a free camping spot that is quite near the Army training area, which seems to be huge. The last 3 nights we stayed in Adelaide at a caravan park on the ocean at Semaphore (spelled something like that, oh and please forgive my spelling, I am usually in a rush and this site does not put red lines under words spelled wrong, nor does it have spell check). Adelaide was quite nice very historic with old sandstone buildings and houses, and beautiful little historic suburbs/towns in the Adelaide hills which look very Englishy. The caravan park was quite nice, there were little bunnies running around of different colours there was black ones, white ... read more
