Leaving England about 3 weeks ago I wondered what I was doing going away for such a long time ( about 5 months ) again and so far away but once in the air and on my 3 day stopover in Dubai I knew I was happy to be on the road again. Staying with Suzanne and Kristy in Dubai and with August temperatures in the 40s Dubai isn’t pleasant ...so one has to find indoor air conditioned pursuits and so i... Read Full Entry

Five go...
That series was one of my most favourite childhood reads... and I was waiting for someone to get lost, throw a tantrum, foil a robbery or steal some food :) Looking forward to more of your Australian adventures!

.....On an adventure
Well we drove through the area where there was an earthquake in WA yesterday ... does that count as part of the adventure . Fortunately didn’t feel a thing .... after my experience being caught up in theChristchurch Earthquake I can do without that sort of excitement! Hope to see you when I get to Tassie.

Happy and on the road again
We loved the Pinnacles. Very surreal. When we visited we didn't encounter many people. I think there were only two other cars in the park. It was lovely. The wildflowers sound awesome, can't wait to hear more. Farm to table ... you are living the life! Loved your starry nights.

Stars
It was very special to be out in the bush at night with such a black sky and the stars , the moon wasn’t rising till about midnight.

I visited PD 20 years ago
You're bringing back some memories. They are fond memories. I visited Pinnacles Desert in the 90-ies when I made a three month trip in Australia. That was more than 20 years ago. I'd like to go back. /Ake

What’s new
Ake , there is a new interpretive visitor centre and also a shop there now ... which I guess wasn’t there 20 years ago. And lots of car / coach parking so I think there are lots of tours from Perth.. it was the only place we saw a large group of tourists .

Memories
I would forget the details and where we have been day to day but I write a few notes each day.... then when I have written the blog it’s a great aide memoire for the future for me to read...happy that you can come along with me by reading it. Love x

Sure is different
20 years ago all that was there was me, the bloke I went there with and the car we drove in. That was all. It was us and we were all by ourselves there. /Ake
