Having travelled a third of the way northwards along Australia's mighty west coast, the southwest beckoned , but before that I had a grand weekend catching up with my second cousin Jon and his wife Penny and with friends of Lesley, Con and Liz.

Hi Cqro, Well you saw different bits of this side than me. It sounds as if you really enjoyed it! I did Wave rock, but for me it was so far from anything else of interest and i didn't see the variations that you have. I did miss the swimming with dolphins, although I was aware of the experience, but just couldn't fit it in. I went to Broom, north of Perth, which I really enjoyed. Whilst there you could look at the map and see where it is. That's where,I don't know if you remember, I saw the 'stairway to the moon' at full moon, and so mesmerised was i that i had to be there all three nights it took place! One of my most memorable experiences in Oz. But you have had others - and it sounds great!!! I am really looking forward to catching up with all your news, and the blog is a great idea. It really brings it all to life!! You are definitely in the right place. The weather here has been absolutely awful!!! You name it and we've had it!! And I see you have met loads of lovely people - one of the best things about travelling alone for my money! Sooooo jealous! xxx
