Time at James Price Point (JPP)
Time at James Price Point (JPP) My good mate Watto and I decided to spend a day visiting this spectacular destination on the Dampier peninsula.

BROOME
I have had a lovely flight to Broome soaring above the clouds (check pic). There is an area south of Broome where the dunes in the landscape below look like a milky color sea. The dunes below look like the swells on the sea. I tried to take pictures, but they did not come … Continue reading
The 5 Best Beaches in Australia
The 5 Best Beaches in Australia. That’s a big ask! First we need to define what constitutes a beach that can be considered for this list. I am not talking about the longest or widest or most sandy etc, etc. By the way, the longest beach probably is the Coorong from Kingston to the Murray … Continue reading
Baffle Creek
Baffle Creek We left Woodgate early-ish in the morning to go up north some 150km to a remote little place by the name of Baffle creek.

The main street of Bundaberg is beautifully renovate with heaps of … Continue reading

6/11 As we started packing up in Robe we saw one of our neighbors move their caravan from one site to another. Instead of packing the annex of the caravan they just undid the pegs, picked up the tent and towed it to the new sites. How novel! I have heard of walking the dog, … Continue reading
Beautiful Robe
3/11 We loaded up all loose items once again and took off for a little place called Tailem Bend only 110km away. Once there, on the spur of the moment, we decided to push on to Robe. This is another 235km further south. The road south was interesting as it travels along the Coorong which … Continue reading
Some more McLaren notes
This morning we decided to revisit Willunga which is only a few kilometers away. The Saturday market was in full swing when we arrived, but very crowded. After looking around we decided to have a coffee and croissant at the Café Terre, a coffee shop styled on the old world French look and feel. This … Continue reading
Exploring the Fleurieu Peninsula

Along the way we drove through Willunga, a charming old style town with lots of cafes and a market. We did return the next day to sample … Continue reading
