In Perth we had brought a book on ‘Camping Guide to WA’. It recommended a campground approx 50kms from Geraldton called Coronation Beach. We decided to give it a go for a couple of nights. It was a really well set up camp ground. We lucked in with a great spot just a short stroll from the beach.

It was nice to spend a couple of quiet nights here, just taking it easy and not embarking on any huge adventures, just some drives around the local beaches and plenty of swims. Our only mishap was a short drive down the sandy beach track where we were stopped from continuing due to flooding of the river mouth inlet, when turning around to return we managed to bog the car in the soft sand with the heavy tinnie on the roof. A little bit of digging later we were free and back on our way to camp.

Ki’s big news for the day was that her front tooth fell out and we even managed a visit from the tooth fairy right out at Coronation Beach!!

Woof
I'm overcome with bitter sweet feelings at the thought of my so called family getting bogged, alone, isolated with a surging river lapping at your wheels... I mean, you could find a place for the van, the tinnie, surfboards, laptop, fishing gear... even the DVD player. Hmmmm... A spade might be enough to dig you out of that sticky situation but it won't be waiting at home to greet you after a hard day at work. Anyway, no more time to waste, I have coffee with Bill and Denise, ahead of a sunset stroll with Matt and Amy. OK OK there I go again, Me, me, me, me, me!! Love the photos, hope you're having a ball... I'll dig a hole or two in the yard for you. Maisy
