hi, The long two day journey back to Perth brought us to the end of the 3,500KM round trip, stopping only for the odd toilet stop and of course sand surfing at the Giant Sand Dunes. Sand surfing was wicked (just like snowboarding but in the sand!) The dunes were really steep and we dont think this comes out properly on our photos. We were chosen by Jim (guide)to be the guinea pigs and we screamed all the way to the bottom. It was class! Spent the rest of the jo...

Hello, Today was another highlight. WE SWAM WITH SHARKS!!!! The Navy Pier dive in Ningaloo Reef is meant to be one of the top dives in the world, we thought it was fantastic. There were so many different types of fish that it would be impossible to list them all. All of the other divers seemed to be very experienced unlike us.

After this we stopped at Eagle Bluff where we tried to spot sharks, turtles and stingrays. The views from here were amazing. Our jour...

hello there Today was the day we met Prince Leonard but unfortunately Princess Shirley was otherwise engaged. They have their own small Province and we had our passports stamped with their own visa. A very eccentric man, he made us laugh. We then went to Kalbarri National Park to visit its magnificent gorges and tried our hand at whale spotting. It was about 50 degrees in the sun and we were almost melting. We then headed to the inland gorges, the L...
