What a wild final night in Perth. Didn’t get much sleep last night as the weather howled and shook the van to pieces. We had packed most of the outside of the van yesterday in preparation for leaving today, and I am certainly glad I took the Annex walls down while they were dry. We … Continue reading »

The Serpintine Dam is a reservoir supplying drinking water to Perth, and there is a nice little cafe there over looking the Dam. The water was very low, not even … Continue reading »
