Esperence

When we arrived at Esperence it looked cool. We saw a sealion called Sammy at the curved wharf. He lives in Esperence Bay. The next day we went on a tourist drive. Then we visited a park that had inflatable water slides. It was cool. The next day we went to Cape Le Grand National Park. We climbed the rocks at Cape Le Grand Beach, played, swam and ate at Lucky Bay and played I spy at Rossier Bay. We had a great time at Esperence. Right now I am in Hopetoun.
Bye for now.

Kalgoorlie-Boulder

Hi. Today we were out and about in Kalgoorlie (and Boulder). First we went to the WA museum of Kalgoorlie-Boulder. It was cool! We learned about the Super Pit and how they organised gold when they found it. Then we went to Mt Charlotte Lookout. Amazing!!! Then we had Lunch in McDonalds (very suprising). Then we saw an explosion in the Super pit. It was awesome (Mum says she wants to work there). Then we went to the little Boulder Sweet Shop. They had loolies and sweets from past and present. Wow! Then we went grocery shopping. Tommorrow we think we might go to Esperence.

Nullarbor Plains!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hi everybody! I actually got internet reception!! So I am posting another post. Today I woke up at 7:00 because I promised Micheal I would meet him there at that time. Soon we left. We had morning tea and lunch on the side of the road. Then we went to the Head of Bight (The Head of the Great Australian Bight). The view was brillant. Jared and I thought it was an Ekaterina Base. We thought it for 2 reasons.
1: There was some kind of Dragon shape on the cliff (The Dragon is the symbol of the Ekaterina) and
2: There was lots of space under the cliffs and rocks.
We are staying at Nullarbor Roadhouse in the Caravan Section tonight. Tomorrow night we are doing our first free camping night.

We went from Elliston to Ceduna yesterday. We had morning tea at Port Kenny, Streaky Bay for a toilet stop, and Smoky Bay for lunch. We had a bit of a paddle at Smoky Bay. Then we arrived at Ceduna. We couldn't find our caravan park!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! But soon we found it. The next day we made 2 friends. Their names are Micheal and Petria. They are very nice. I taught them The 39 clues. Even their Mum is intrested!! Micheal is a Tomas and Petria is Ekaterina. I won't be updating my blog for a while because as we cross the Nullabor, we won't get very good internet reception. Bye for now.

Port Neill to Elliston

Hi, everybody. Sorryu I took so long to write. The computer didn't let me publish my post! We went to Orroroo in South Australia. We had a meeting in the morning and decided that we would go to a place called Port Gibbon. We drove and had morning tea in Port Augusta. We had lunch in Whyalla. When we arrived I realised that we were free camping at Pt Gibbon. When arrived at the free camping spot, it was packed! So we decided we would travel another 50-60 kms and to a place called Port Neill. We stayed the night there. In the morning we set off. We had morning tea at Port Lincoln. I got another 39 clues card pack there. We had lunch at Coffin Bay. We arrived at where we are staying, Elliston. We booked in to our caravan park. Mum, Nan, Jared and I went to see a HUMOUGUS wharf. It took what felt like an hour to get to the end and back. See ya all later.

Broken Hill and South Australia!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

We were in Broken Hill two nights. We stayed at Broken Hill City Caravan Park. It had a great pool and playground. On our full day there we went to a place called Silverton. It was a historical town. Only 10-100 people still live there since it was built 1881. We went to two art gallerys. That afternoon Mum, Dad and I went to an art gallery with paintinmgs painted buy Howard William Steer. He had such amazing (and humourous) paintings. The next morning when we left, we went to see him again, but this time we brang Jared with us. I bought a print of a painting called The Bush Opera House. About 50 kilometres later we were at the border of NSW and South Australia. Today we stay at a place called Orroroo in SA. Tomorrow we have no idea where we are going. Bye.

Dubbo and Cobar were Great

We had a great time at Dubbo. But the caravan park...I wasn't so keen on it. We had a stew for dinner. In the morning Jared and I jumped on the "Jumping Pillow". At about 10:00 we set off for Cobar. We stopped at Trangie for morning tea. We kept going and went up with two of our grandparents for lunch in Nyngan. Then, on the way to Cobar, we saw about 10 kangaroos cross the road! Then we saw some emus on the side of the road! We saw the Australian coat of arms!
Ha Ha Ha! When we arrived at Cobar, I recognised that our caravan park was at the other side of Cobar. When we got there we saw our Nan waving at us. We checked in and got our caravan set up. We made a friend named James. He was 3-4 years old. We had Chilli Con Carne and Rice for dinner. Jared and I then went to the showers and had a shower. When we got back we watched Spongebob. When it was over I read Deltora Quest and went to sleep.
