Another sleepless night due to the wind, and we were packed and off. Originally to Bunbury but I booked a ship-wreck dive on the former HMAS Swan and its in Dunsborough so to Dunsborough! On the drive to Dunsborough we stopped at the Valley of the Giants, sounds impressive doesn't it?Basically, a bunch of huuuuuge trees with a walkway suspended in the treetops which was pretty cool. We found a campsite not far from the dive shop and once set up decided to pop in...

The drive to Albany involved no detours apart from more toilet stops than usual due to a burger from a burger van. I should have learnt my lesson by now. The evening involved a quick provisions stop and we tried to settle in for the night the wind, however, had other ideas (not my flatulence for once).

The eagles were a sight to behold but...

We started our mammoth journey to Western Australia today. I won't bore you (much) with any details but lets just say Australia is full of nothing for a very long way!! The Nullarbor translated treeless plain is exactly that,although there were occasional glimpses of the ocean as cliffs fell away to our left (if they were on right we'd be going the wrong way) it was mostly desert (no Kate not what you have after your main meal). There were a few photo opportuniti...
