Sorry 
for the delay in posting these past few days. We have arrived in Perth at Karen's brothers house. We are imposing on the family for the next 5 weeks, and will be using this as a base from which to explore Western Australia.
We haven't posted for the past few days as we have just been relaxing, catching up on all the gossip and generally enjoying not having our home moving beneath us as we drive from spot to spot.
All told - we completed 5644 km of driving which equates to 3500 miles for those not familiar with metrics. We did it in a little over 3 weeks (not counting the 5 days we were broken down) and if you included the miles flown - we have travelled the length and breath of Australia and gone over 10,000 km. There were many highlights, more than we could mention.
From our experiences, it has made us decide to do it again - only this time, we shall take longer to do it, be better prepared in our planning of the trip so that we hit the right areas for the seasons that we are travelling, and perhaps travel less so that we can spend more time stationary and getting to know the areas better. All in all, for those who are adventurous - we can well recommend
it.
So for the next week or so, we shall hang around Secret Harbour and enjoy the relaxation and play with the dogs. Next week we are off on a small adventure - going to see the South West of Australia - visiting Albany, Denmark, Esperance and Kalgoorlie. We shall keep you posted once we have started that journey.
