Saturday 13/02/21 Finding Misty (Miss Tee)

 

Rob decided to investigate the Bremer Bay, golf course this morning and I decided to accompany him for the walk. Arriving at the course we met a lovely couple who had just finished playing 9 holes. They chatted to us and explained that they were also on holidays, coming from Jurien Bay.  I then realized that they were the same couple who camped opposite us in the caravan park. They offered Rob the use of one of their buggies which he took up as the course was very hilly. On the first tee he found Mr Tee’s sister, Misty who will now feature in photos. (Funny follow-up story to this, was that Barry (one of our new Jurien Bay friends) had apparently hit such a great drive on the first tee that he left his tee on the t-block which Rob then claimed when he went to play the first hole.) Golf was fun and challenging in some places. After lunch we decided to check out the Museum at the Wellstead Homestead. We walked around many old farm buildings, full of lots of old stuff, including cars, tractors, bikes, farm machinery etc. We visited the famous café here for coffee and cake. Delicious. From here we drove down to Bremer Bay and decided to drive all the way around the bay on the beach, a distance of 7km. At the end of the bay there were a few other 4w drive vehicles but most of the people there were in a much younger age group compared to us. (Rob didn’t seem to mind.) We returned back to the park and spent a lovely couple of hours having drinks with and chatting to the lovely couple we had met out at the golf course.

3 Tees

Tuesday 09/02/21 Goodbye Denmark, Goodbye Mr Tee

Image
  We didn’t have to rush off this morning as we were only travelling back to Albany. Rob decided to take a photo of Mr. Tee on the caravan at Denmark before we left and unfortunately, left him on the van. Mr Tee didn’t survive the trip to Albany so we now have Mr Tee junior. He will star in the photos tomorrow. We decided to stay at a lovely caravan park right at Emu Beach, adjacent to Emu Point. We can walk straight through to the beach on the large Frenchman Bay from the park and then it’s a short walk to the point and around to the very sheltered Oyster Bay which is very popular too. After settling in, I went for a short kayak on Oyster Bay and close to the entrance to the bay, around Emu Point. Although it was calm in the bay, the wind was up and it made kayaking a little difficult but it was still interesting. Rob was working on the TV in the van so when I got back I went for a lovely walk from the caravan park around the point and to Oyster Bay. On the way I found some public...

Thursday 11/02/21 Big, Beautiful Bremer Bay

  We left Albany heading to our next stop, Bremer Bay. The main highway was still closed for roadworks in the same area as when we were driving over and so once again we were sent on quite a long detour. Bremer Bay is only 188 kms from Albany so it didn’t take us that long. The caravan park at Bremer Bay is located adjacent to the Wellstead Estuary. It is a delightful little holiday town, surrounded by beautiful beaches and bays. It appears to be a very popular holiday spot for people from Perth and there are many holiday homes in the town as well as permanent caravans in the huge park.   We have been given a magnificent site. It is grassed and so big. Apparently it is for a bus or 30 foot van! We’ve booked in for 3 nights. After setting up we tried to go and find a spot up stream in the Bremer River. I was hoping to kayak down the river into the Estuary. We had to drive along a very rough 4xW drive track and in the end we said it just wasn’t worth it as it was going to take u...

Thursday 18/02/21 A Big day of Driving

Image
 Today we (really Rob) drove from Esperance to Madura, a small Roadhouse, motel, bar restaurant, caravan park in the middle of nowhere. It was pretty windy when we left and it wasn’t a helpful wind as it was a cross-wind and so it slow going to Norseman. Turning onto the Eyre Highway we then had a tail-wind until lunch-time. We stopped at Balladonia for lunch and fuel and the wind changed once again, so we now had a cross-wind but all things considered we did pretty well covering approximately 750km today. It was evident that even out on the Eyre Highway, there had been quite a lot of rain over the past 24 hours. We arrived at Madura around 4.30pm and settled in, having a drink in the bar. 1 tee and 1 almost impossible to find tee
