Happy caching!




Monday 14th July 2008-
Today we did a multi-(geo)cache. This took us on a tour of the wartime coastal defence emplacements in the Princess Royal Harbour. Whilst walking around we were accompanied by plenty of large lizards and a couple of bandicoots for company! After stretching our legs we did coffee & cake at 'Bay Merchants' just around the corner from our duplex & chatted with a Scottish bloke and his wife!

Middleton Beach


Sunday 13th July 2008-
Had a lazy morning then ventured out to the nearby Middleton Beach for a walk. The beach was covered in an array of different shells which had been washed up after a violent storm in the area two days earlier. Drew & Elise soon had pockets bulging with shells they wanted to take home but they were spoilt for choice!

Albany, here we come!

Saturday 12th July 2008-
Today we are off on our annual jaunt to Albany for our fix of 'proper' winter weather!
For those of you who may not know, Albany is 4 1/2 hours south of Perth & experiences colder conditions to Perth due to its location near to the Southern Ocean.
