Up early and left Jurien Bay around 8.30am fuel up at 170.9c/ litre, drove through the town is seems to be good to stay for a few days if you like fishing. The drive is about 260 k’s into a headwind. Took about 4 hrs to get to the northern side of Perth were we stopped to find a place to stay, we decided to stay at Bankia caravan park (fpa) for 4 nights.

The park has about 85% permanents and there is no or minimal grass sites concrete everywhere, cost $38 per night which being close to the city you would expect to pay ,though was not expecting to pay a $ 1 a night extra for the extra dog we had . Was going to ask for 10% discount on the $ 4………Optus signal is very good so Marg will be on the net talking to the grand kids. Today is very cold and raining on and off.
