Shark Bay 15th-17th April 2017 The drive from Kalbarri to Monkey Mia was about 4 hours and we set off around sunrise. We entered into the Shark Bay world heritage area around 2 hours from Monkey Mia. Shark Bay heritage is 2.2 million hectares and incorporates marine and land. It's one of the few areas in the world that meet all four of the natural criteria to be listed as a world heritage area. The first stop in the area was Stromatolites and Hamelin Pool. The...

Kalbarri national park 14th-15th April 2017 We set off at the crack of dawn on the Friday, which was Good Friday so Nath had the Friday and Monday off work for Easter. The drive to Kalbarri took around 6 hours from Perth without stops. The drive up was the same as most in WA, one straight road all the way with nothing much around you apart from roadkill and outback. I'm sure going to miss this crazy place though! We had a few toilet/coffee stops on the way and ...

20th July 2016 - 13th April 2017 When we arrived in Perth we stayed at Goodearth hotel on Adelaide terrace in the city. We got 20% off online and paid $590 for 5 nights. We had been contacting people and looking for a place to rent on our way over but when we arrived a new one came up on gumtree. We agreed it was out of our budget of $300/week but we went to see it anyway on the day we arrived. We also had other bookings in for the next two days. The apartment w...

18th-20th July Day 1- Adelaide to Ceduna 777.5km The first day of the road trip was to Ceduna along A1 then onto Eyre Highway (A1). We stopped Port Augusta on the way, which was very pretty by the water- very clear water! It was a nice day and got quite stuffy in the car. The drive consisted of very long straight roads, a lot of greenery on open plains, some red sandy parts, and we drove past the Flinders Ranges. The road seemed to just on and on forever in th...

Horsham Melbourne to Horsham 288km 14th-15th July We stayed in Horsham for a night on our way to Melbourne to break up the driving a little. It was a 3 and a half hour drive so it would mean less time to Adelaide the day after, but we didn't want to go any further today as we hadn't had any sleep the night before with our 2am flight. We stayed at Wimmera Lakes Caravan Resort for $79 a night. We had our own 2 bed cabin with full kitchen/living and bathroom. It...
