This is all you see for miles around. Unfortunately we didn't see any kangas to liven it up a bit...
After two weeks of travelling around Oz together, I left Susan to do her own thing in Perth for a while (her blog to follow...) and I went up to Exmouth (1200km from Perth) for April's wedding.

It was fantastic! Exmouth is deep in outback country, with red red soil everywhere and not much else. Straight away we went on a sunset whale watching trip, which was just amazing. I saw loads of humpback whales, but no spectactular breeches (or at least none for the camera). It was a great way to catch up with April, Andrew and friends, as well as meet some of the other guests.

The next day was cold and wet, apparently it rains just twice a year in Exmouth. I blame it on all the Brits invited bringing the weather with us! Anyway, luckily the rain cleared for the wedding, leaving some awe inspiring storm clouds and rainbows, a perfect backdrop for the wedding. There were even turtles on the beach and whales breeching in the background whilst the service went on, how unique is that!

The whole day was just fantastic, April looked stunning in her dress, beautiful. I really enjoyed the
