The agricultural show at Kununurra was a hit, it reminded us of the Ballymoney show but with some subtle difference, the Cowboy races for example.It felt a little odd being a tourist in a community fair, checking out the local schools art displays and seeing how big they can grow their water melons and pumpkins! After the show we hit the local pub for a bit of local talent, some country music. But we didn't feel far from home since the bar staff were Irish, and...

We hadn't got far from Broome when we started to smell a burning smell. The gas was off so we weren't on fire, but we both had puzzled looks on our faces. The next thing the speedo had a bit of an epileptic fit for a few seconds and then the needle rested on 0kmphr. This was odd since I was still doing 100. Oh no, Audrey was sick. This meant we had an unplanned stop in Derby for the night and in the morning we got her checked out. Diagnosis: the electric plug ...

From Exmouth we drove 690Km east to a mining town called Tom Price. Named after the mining director who believed that there was a rich supply of Iron Ore in the area. He was right, and it's still coming. We did a mining tour which was pretty cool. Most of the tour group were "Grey Nomads". I hope no one takes offence to this term! They actually call themselves this. Retired folk, traveling around Australia in campervans, Winnebago's and refurbished bu...

So, where are we? We're currently in Exmouth and we've had a whale of a time…..sorry. We spent the entire day in Ningaloo Marine Park. We swam and dived along beside a little group of chilled green turtles to start. Then the skipper spotted manta rays. These fish are massive and glide through the water. Next on the aquatic safari were hump back whales, breaching and splashing. Amazing. We could actually hear these guys under the water, incredible. Dolphins ...

We're currently in "Audrey", our campervan, making her feel like home and getting used to her faults. Initially when we picked her up the rattling was intense, but now, on Day 4 we just turn the music up and enjoy. We're in a campsite in Kalbarri, the sun has just set and we're hoping the squad of neighbouring Galas will keep it down while we sleep. Our first day in WA (Western Australia) was spent wondering around the main street in Perth and along ...
