Typical ... I've been told that this is my end of the caravan ... 

And this is Kev's ...

We are managing very well in our new accommodation, much better than a tent and well worth the stressful first towing ... The nights have been really snuggly with the heater going full blast, (Kev says its not our electricity bill ha ha) and I have my coffee machine. So we've been really surprised that this is so comfortable and everything is so well planned  ... Not like the old days in a 2 man tent?

(I was a bit worried about the ladiesroom  though (tee hee) ...)

Lazy Day at Cervantes 04.07.12 Wednesday.
Woke up this morning and everyone who was camped around us had hitched up and gone home, so we had the campsite to ourselves. Yaaaay, but I do wonder if it was Kev's snoring that sent them all away!!? So we have kept a low profile today and spent a lazy day exploring Cervantes local popular spots. We all visited the famous Lobstershack for lunch, where the girls had tried to disguise themselves as lobsters so they could join us.

Kev tried ANOTHER spot of fishing, at the beach at the back of our caravan park in Cervantes tonight because it is supposed to be a famous fishing town???...  So well, he wanted me to post this pic of him and say this is the fish he caught! ...  ho hum,  (here is the fish that he would have liked to catch! but he had found it already filleted ...

Zoonie and I have now given up and gone for a long walk, we'll be starving tonight again, so it's the fish and chip shop for tea? ...

Last day at Jurien Bay. Thursday 5.7.12

We won't be beaten by the fish drought, we headed off to Jurien Bay today, which is about 266 kms North of Perth, but only 20kms from Cervantes. (Jurien Bay was named in 1801 by French naval explorer Nicholas Baudin in honor of Charles Jurien who was from he French Navy). Bit of trivia, as we go ...  

First off, Kev headed off to the local jetty with his rods and bait ... At last ... is that something on the end of his rod, the girls and I ran up the jetty to take a look ... oh nooo, drat, he has only caught a huge piece of seaweed ... but that's the biggest catch he's had this week ...

Maybe I might have more luck? ...

Nah ... I'm not dedicated enough, got fed up after 5 minutes. Maybe we better leave it to the locals this time. Perhaps if we practice more often we may get a catch one day ... oh well, back to the caravan for coffee and cake ...

It's been a nice warm 22 today, but the rains will be back tomorrow, so we will be heading back home to the comforts of our suburban house, (unfortunately).

Now we do actually feel like experienced campers and have picked up a lot of tips from the caravan community and met a lot of nice people on the way. So, "all in all" for a first trial run, we have had a brilliant time and look forward to our next big trip up North, when we head up to Exmouth, Ningaloo Reef, Coral Bay, Broome and the "sunshine" with all of our family in August/September ...

 

How does it get any better than this? ... Can' wait to find out ... Be back soon xxx

Bye for now ...
