Esperance – Norseman – Balladonia
Another beautiful day in the south of our state today as we departed Esperance. We started the day with the traditional coffee, juice and jetty walk before loading up the car and hitting the road. A short distance out of town and we reached our first stop, the Esperance Bird & Animal Park. We had…

Esperance & Foreshore
Today we spent the day exploring the town of Esperance a little more and generally enjoying the weather and scenery. Guess where we started the day …. That’s right, Sir Juice and Coffee Cat with a walk along the Tanker Jetty. After that we went for a long walk along the foreshore, admiring the scenery…

Esperance & Cape Le Grand
Esperance turned on the most stunning weather for us today 🙂 We started off with the now obligatory walk across to Coffee Cat and Sir Juice for morning refreshments which we enjoyed whilst watching the ocean do its thing.

And we’re off!!!
This morning we packed our last few items, loaded the car, made sure the house was neat and tidy ready for the house-sitter and finally hit the road around 10:30am. It was a very strange feeling to leave our house knowing we wouldn’t be back for 90 days!! Shadow was very relieved to find out…

Packing Time
This past week has seen packing, unpacking, umm-ing, arr-ing, culling and then repacking. The camping chairs have had much discussion and the final verdict is that we are still young enough to get our butts up from the ground. So we have packed two different picnic rugs, one really big wet weather one and one…
