After a stressful start to our journey, too much stuff, too many people asking what and where, We finally arrived @ our first free camp, 20 minutes before dark! Was all good, beans and toast for dinner, did'nt to want overwhelm everyone on the first night with my culinary skills!
Had a good night, was in bed at 8.00 due to no electricity!
Next morning we had breaky and off to wave rock by twenty past seven! Not bad eh! Was lovely going through the country side at that time in the morning.
Wave rock was stunning! So glad we made the effort, we all did the surfing pose as you do! The kids loved and Leah proceded to tell anyone who would listen that it was "just stunning".
We then headed to our next free camp just outside Ravensthorpe, met a lovely couple and the kids got filthy in the fine talcum powder like RED dust! They painted a picture of wave rock and got even dirtier! Happy all the same! Another early night!
We arrived in Esperance with the idea to go to another free camp, but the thought of a hot shower and some power was just to much ! We have a perfect site looking at ocean with a park out front, have hardly saw the kids since we arrived!
Looking forward to a little glass of wine!, watch some telly and get into bed smelling lovely!
