Western Australia

2 others to add to the crew at Kroombit:
Athena Jinxy was a ledgend. Beth and I spent all our time with her when she got here. She bought a car and we painted it together. We log roll down hills together when im hungover.
Honey Bear  (Don't really know him by his real name he was just always honey Bear...umm its ...Barry) Pretyy much a big teddy bear. His mom came out to visit for a week Momma Bear.

So here is the grand adventures of Beth and I on the west coast.
It all started at Kroombit whe Beth and I were talking about it. We were debating doing it for a while and finally manned up and bough the tickets. We flew out of Rockhampton on Dec 3rd. Athena drove us to the airport while was nice cosidering its a 2 hour drive from Kroombit. So the 2 of us hoped o the plane not knowing what was ahead of us, other then the fact that we were renting a campervan for 20ish days. So we flew into Perth and got there at night on the Dec 3rd. Stayed there and had heaps of fun on the second night. Met this girl named Becky and had a blast. We went for dinner (we were going to have cereal but Beth accidently put it on the free food shelf and of course someone jacked it right away, but this lead us to our grand adventures that night) We went to a little bar where there was a live band playing older country dancing music and there were all these old couples just giving'er. Amazing t watch, they had so much energy and personality. After we headed to another little bar where there was a live band and the guy kept asking us for requests. He was halarious and really reminded me of Adam Macdougall. Comedian in the making. We danced a bit there and then back to the hostil for some more dancing and pool contest. We visied Rottness Island, which is breath taking, but we got attacked by heaps of flys, which for some reason just want to go in your eyes, mouth, noe, and ears. If they took these flys awy it would be heaven on earth We sarted up the coast on the 5th. Stopping at the pinnacles (large rock formations coming out of the ground surrounded by sand) Google it. It crazy cool. We were there at sun set aswell. Camped that night at a Caravan park, like most the other nights to come. Just felt safer, cosidering it was just the 2 of us in the middle of nowhere usually. Just driving up the coast was breathtaking. We stopped at Shark Bay and had a night out with the locals, which were a bit special, we did Kareoke. Beth and i did "gives you hell" and "our song" and i did a duo with the singer that was playing his guitar earlier tht night "Grease combo of songs". Drove to Monkey Mia for the dolphin feeding and from there we went to coral bay and met 4 Kiwi lads on the beach, had a couple drinks them and all became best friends and hung out for the next night, day and night together. They were good fun and entertaining. We snorkeled the Ningaloo Reef during the day, which was crazy breathtaking. Saw fish, coral, and an eel. Really really friken amazing.We then headed to Exmouth and at night saw turtles laying eggs on the beach. They were huge and there were loads of them. Then we went to Karijini National Park. It was stuning the cliffs and the waterfall we went to. But it was like 40 degrees and so many flys we couldnt go out of the van, but couldnt stay in cause the heat. I ended up sleeping on the roof of the van cause i was so hot. It was the worst sleep ever, but we made it through the night. We then drove to Broome, I perfect sized city. Did some surfing! It had beena while but by the end of the day I was picking it up again. Had some geat rides!! Tryed to see the sun set but missed it, hung out in the pool during the days and the beach, and did some driving round the city. Have to end the blog for now, finish updating later.
