| We finally found a great spot to put the boat in at Mandurah. Our first day on the water we rescued a couple of blokes who had battery problems!! |
 |
| Not long after we landed a few nice bream..... |
 |
| ....with Tac's being the better fish! |
 |
| I followed up with a nice size whiting and...... |
 |
| ......with a few of these blue swimmer crabs we had ourselves a very tasty dinner!! |
 |
| Travelling down the coast we stopped in to see "The Pinnacles". |
 |
| We saw some funny sights on Australia Day travelling down the Swan River. |
 |
| They even had a "Mr Whippy" boat selling ice creams. |
 |
| Looking across from South Perth at the city view. |
 |
| Have a look at the size of the bream we caught in the Swan River!! |
 |
| It looks like snags for dinner again! |
 |
| We spent a memorable day in Fremantle browsing through the markets and the eclectic array of shops. |
 |
| A bit of fun in Geraldton..... |
 |
| .......with some of the street art. |
 |
| We really enjoyed our stay wandering..... |
 |
| ........the streets and taking in the sights. |
 |
| Tac is standing under the dome at the HMAS Sydney memorial. Each bird represents a man who lost his life defending our country. |
 |
| Lake Indoon was a peaceful spot to camp on our way South. |
 |
| We had heard about the "Pink Lake" in the small seaside town of Port Gregory but.... |
 |
| ....it's not until you see it that you can believe how pink it actually is. |
 |
| We spent a peaceful couple of days travelling down the WA coast dropping in on small seaside towns like Port Gregory and Horrocks. |
 |
| This is Coronation Beach with literally 50 or so windsurfers and kite surfers enjoying the windy weather. |
 |
| The marina at Geraldton on another sunny day! |
 |
| We spent our last day at Monkey Mia onboard a 60ft racing catamaran to...... |
 |
| ......see the amazing dugongs in their natural habitat. It was one of the best experiences we've had to view these peaceful creatures. We were even lucky enough to get up close to a mother and its calf. A very rare sighting! |
 |
| Here I am at our next stop in Kalbarri. This is the famous "nature's window" in the national park. |
 |
| The scenery along the coast here is...... |
 |
| ......spectacular as is the extremely strong winds!! |
 |
| This was our dinner tonight - a plateful of blue swimmer crabs that we caught today off the jetty. Wow are these guys tasty. It's the nicest seafood I've ever eaten! |
 |
| We spent an amazing day at Monkey Mia....... |
 |
| ....where we stood in the water with the beautiful dolphins. |
 |
| Such beautiful gentle creatures that bought a tear to my eye as we watched them swim around us. |
 |
| This special girl has recently been attacked by a shark and has many teeth marks on her body. |
 |
| The first bathroom that we totally stripped and renovated removing shower walls that had fallen apart. |
 |
| This is the second bathroom which got stripped and the plumbing moved. |
 |
| A revamped bathroom with new tiles, shower hob and new screen. |
 This shower we fitted with a square screen and hob along with new wall tiling. |
