16th-26th May 2017 Our flight from Perth was at 11.40pm with Jet Star. It was a 4 and a half hour flight but there is a 2 hour time difference (ahead) on the east so we got in at just after 6am local time. As it was a short flight and a night flight we didn't get much sleep that night, just a couple of hours. Jetstar is a budget airline too like Jet2, so we had no TVs or anything to watch and were pretty cramped. We saw a lovely sunrise on the flight on the way ...

17th April - 15th May 2017 The last few weeks in Perth went very quick! Some days felt pretty long for me as I was just at home while Nath was working. It got a little lonely sometimes! I went for walks around the river and city. On one of the days I saw a pod of dolphins playing in the Swan River which was lovely! We had a lovely night out down at Lucky Shag and then we got on the ferry over the Swan to south Perth to go to Mister Walker in South Perth. There w...

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...
