Hi all We are now back at Exmouth after 6 nights at Cape Range National Park. We got up early and were at the Ranger Station for the National Park 40kms away from Exmouth around the peninsula before 7am, but still we were No 18 in the queue for a campsite!! We waited until 8am, when it opened (9 more had turned up by then), and were very lucky to be offered the last spot in the overflow campsite for the first night. We could then transfer to a better spot the next day. We got a lovely spot at Osprey Bay, a stone's throw away rom a lovely beach, with tame kangaroos. The camp hosts had a Happy hour BYO each evening 5pm - 6.30pm, so most of the campers came. We walked the beaches ... read more

The further north we are going the more we are warned to make sure we have enough water with us at all times. Its the little things that we take for granted such as being able to turn on a tap and have the water there...how many times have I just left the water running as I brush my teeth? None of that now as we have to make sure that we save water as we push on. We can sometimes fill up the vans reservoir at some rest stops, usually with non drinking water though so also carry with us a few large containers of water, just in case. We continue along the coast up north towards Exmouth and pass some absolutely stunning beaches that are all part of the Ningaloo marine park. The beaches ... read more

Been here for just under 1 week and not much to report oh besides "THEY HAVE THE BEST BURGERS AROUND!!!!!" There is a caravan parked behind the pub and they do the best burgers, kebabs and chips that i have had in ages. They were that good we went back the next night and had round 2. Pretty small town i was expecting bigger, but i have been told that they get packed out during school holidays which are like in 1-2 weeks. Went and had a look at the canyons here with Ash and Cristie the other day when it was blowing its ass off, great choice of day!!! Pretty impressive when looking down, even worked calling out a "koo-wee" We had Dale, Tahn and Kaylee meet up with us here for the weekend which ... read more

Having been getting up at 7 for the last few days we treated ourselves to a lie-in today. We then headed for “Cape Range” national park and to “Oyster Stacks” which we had heard so much about from our neighbour. Himself and his wife have been coming to the park we were at for the past 20 years and they just live there for four months of the year chasing the sun. Loads of people there were doing the same thing, it was kind of mental, but we were meeting some really nice people. So anyway we got to the beach and who was there but the two Joes! So we had a little catch up with them and then got in the water, the reef was about 5 metres from our towels, it was unreal ... read more
