They have a pretty good life and I have my parents to thank for that they moved here from pommie land when I was 9. Bit different to Manchester

Looks like a fun adventure. I love the turquoise color of the water. I'm probably answering my own question, but is it because of the white sand? I'm really looking forward to exploring WA a lot more over the coming years.

Nice one hilly, thanks for posting those photos

Great to see the kids enjoying the surf and camping, my three girls have got into surfing this year and my eldest is at the same stage of riding reforms on a foamy, she stays out for hours and its great to see the grin on their faces.

Luved the picture of the dog he/she looks to be the same as our weimaraner always wants to be part of the family.

looking fwd to exploring down that way with my family over the comming years.

cheers

Yes the white sand and really clean water. Contrasts well with the red rock outcrops.

Loved it Hilly, reminds me of our family adventures. WA is such an awesome place so much variety, from Esperance to Ningaloo. Can't wait for our Ningaloo trip in june.

Got a 100% record I go to the fish shop. Tenticles in Esperance is excellent.

Seriously cannot think of anything more boring. Yes I have caught Spanish Maccas at Gnaraloo etc but I have not the patience.

Love to eat it though.

And happy to drink beer while someone else fishes.

Got any more pics of your deluxe fly on the turbo tent? I've got a 300 as well and have considered buying the deluxe fly. Any good?

Delux fly is a very good addition to the turbo 300 easy to put up and a good shade area
