Saturday 27 July: We Did It

-

The laundry, that is. Get up early, find an empty washing machine, find some line space. Anyhow, we are now back to our most pristine.

But we didn’t let the laundry rule our day and had some walks, drawing for Gayle, and cryptic crosswords for Jeffrey.

Where in the world is our caravan?

The glass bottom boat has a very shallow draft. Passengers embark from the beach and it can sail over the coral in very shallow water.

Saturday 7 September: The Last Post

The sun is sliding down and tonight is the last one of our holiday. As always, the Wimmera River at Dimboola has been delightful. It’s been a wonderful 12 weeks on the road. Our initial objectives to travel to Perth to see family and Broome to meet our London friends were achieved without too much fuss, though the bust part was always in the background, with a small caravan, hybrid car, a dog that doesn’t like the heat and two older people not sure if we were still capable of such adventures.

The Anangu people of Western desert language groups (Pitjantjatjara / Yankunytjatjara) are the traditional owners of the coastal lands, undulating plains and the deserts regions surrounding the Nullarbor. Wirangu occupied the land east of the Head of Bight and the Mirning clans occupied the coast west to Eucla. Kokatha, Antakarinja and Ngalea occupied lands to the north and north-east. These groups are linked through cultural affiliations and traditional practices which they still embrace. Today is a day to let the pictures do the talking. We visited The Head of Bight Visitors Centre to look for whales, and we were so pleased with what we saw. These are Southern Right Whales. They travel from Antartica each year and remain in residence at the Head of Bight between June and October, mating and having their calves. Spot the first calf of the season with her Mum near the end of the shots. Southern Right Whales are 'baleen' whales which have horny plates of baleen hanging down from...
