We woke up at 5am the next day so we could get an early start on the driving. We had all forgotten the time difference between Darwin and Western Australia so we would have an hour and a half less less to complete the journey. So today we planned to drive around 1000km! We did manage to get to see some interesting places though, such as ngumpan cliff, I'm pretty sure it was called this, and also passed through some small towns such as Fitzroy crossing, where gra...

Broome was high on the places I wanted to go to on the West Coast, unfortunately though I would not see it on this trip because of the amount of km we still had to do to get to Darwin. Day four consisted of 950km of driving. First we would drive through Wittanoom, this had Daniel and Alice at their hypochondriac best, as the town carried an asbestos warning. The town was evacuated, there is no electric or gas there because of all the asbestos but still four craz...

In my last blog I hoped for a more exciting day and boy did I get it. The next day we went too Karijini national park.

It wasn't my greatest idea either to walk in my $4 k-mart classic pumps. They were already pretty worn so the soles were thin and I felt every stone on the pebbly / rocky path g...

Unfortunately not much to report about day two of our road trip, we just drove a lot. Maybe around 800km to a camp site just outside of Newman. The highlight of the day going to Woolworths and buying some cheap bread. But at least it wasn't as bad as my last road trip adventure. Daniel and Alice were very chatty, quizzing me about my travels, telling me about theirs. They had been travelling around Australia before this trip on bicycles, and I don't mean just sho...

So I was meant to get up at 5.45am to get the 6.35am bus to meet the German couple I would be travelling with the next six days. Instead I woke up at 8.30am. The night before had certainl took its toll on me. Moments later Daniel (One half of the German couple) called me to see where I was, I quickly made up some excuse and said I had been delayed at the hostel and said I would get a taxi there in the next few minutes. He said he would give me a call back with ma...
