Left Margaret river in torrential rain....good day to travel....hit Perth but my tiny map didn't exactly help so had a few turns till we got on the road north.......arrived at the national park outside Yanchep....and booked into the Inn that's nestled amongst wetlands and bushland....
The wetland view room needed a repaint but that was no issue because the view of kangeroos outside at dusk was amazing....
Earlier we had walked around the wetlands and came across two koalas sleeping , cuddling a tree....photos are hard but one did lift his head fir a second , looked at us and then nuzzled the branch again!
Because I was constantly looking up at trees I only saw the snake by my feet at the last minute...it slithered past, a long reddish brown thing, enough to make me move like the speed of light...ten yards in two seconds!!....it was a venomous brown tree snake...it disappeared into a hole in the base of the tree....
I am now snake cautious....didn't think about snakes till now.....

The Inn served sumptuous filling food and I was tempted to have another lamb curry, that two lamb currys in five days!...going from the room to the inn we surprised a big daddy kangeroo, he jumped, we jumped!...then a mummy and joey froze at seeing us.....we gave them a wide birth and opportunity to hop off.....
Only at the inn one night....then off up the coast further north.....
