Day 37 Thurs 16 Jun 16, Esperance to Albany 478km, showers, 9 to 15 deg. Up early and after a quick brekky we were on the road again, Hwy 1, heading West. First stop was Ravensthorpe, 170km, for a cuppa. As there were showers and drizzle nearly all the way to Albany we didn't stop again till we reached the van park at 1:35pm. Despite the fact that we were on Hwy 1 the road wasn't too flash at all. Narrower than every other WA road we'd been on and quite a rough s...

Day 36 Wed 15 Jun 16, Esperance, cloudy with occasional drizzle, 10 to 17 deg. A nice rain-free walk started our day. It was particularly pleasant along the esplanade with the sun just coming up. The neatest and best looking esplanade we've seen for some time. The piles of seagrass on the beach were an indication of some recent rough weather. After brekky we took a drive out to Cape Le Grand, allegedly it has the whitest beaches in Oz. We doubt it, while we're no...

Day 35 Tues 14 Jun 16, Esperance, showers, 10 to 14deg, not a very nice day. Woke to an overcast sky with a forecast of a high chance of showers, so we had to adjust our day to suit the weather. At least the farmers will be happy with the rain, we are currently in the huge wheat and sheep belt of southern WA. We just managed to squeeze in a walk and some shopping before the rain and cooler weather arrived. Wendy decided to do a day's work due to the weather. Greg...

Day 34 Mon 13 Jun 16, Caiguna to Esperance 575km, cloudy with showers during the morning with blue sky and sunshine from 2pm, 10 (forecast 5) to 20 deg. Last leg of the Nullarbor of what is effectively 1,500 km of straight driving without a lot of variation. That said it was a great experience and we did enjoy just being out there in the wide open spaces. It does make you appreciate the little things as you go along, a "hill", an eagle on a dead roo, a tree, the ...
