Port Gregory

Ok, so this bit’s going to be a bit of an update since it’s been awhile (ok, a long time!) between blogs. There’s more to come after this one as well, so put your glasses on Norma, you’re in for a read!

 

From Carnarvon, we headed south again (and yes, it’s getting colder and colder as we do…) to the quaint little town of Port Gregory, where we are currently residing in lot 81! We got here yesterday, got set up, then headed down to the jetty for some more fishing. Yay. Fishing. J Matt and Craig outdid themselves, and pulled in a couple of decent sized Taylor that we’ve had for lunch today.

 

Today we’ve been exploring along the beach with Craig and Dale before saying goodbye to them after we all had a feed of fish (except for poor Craig who’s allergic to fish!). They’ve headed a bit further on down the coast, and are basically heading home from there. It’s been great travelling with them (if nothing else, it gives you someone else to talk to! J), we’ve had so much fun and seen some awesome sights. It was kinda sad to see them go, but I guess some people do have to work… J

 

So, Matt, Jack and I are on our own again but not for too long since we’ll be back with the lovely Jen and Phill this weekend in Cape Burney. We’ve already had another adventure this afternoon, anyway! We headed inland towards Northampton to check out the ruins of Lynton.

Hi, We haven’t written for a while sorry! This is actually my first go at a blog too. Following on from where D got up to last time. We went to the Hutt River Province and had a tour around with Prince Leonard. The PHR (Principality of Hutt River) is well worth a look if you are up this way http://www.principality-hutt-river.com/.

 

After we left Port Gregory we headed down to Phill and Jen’s at Cape Burney. We watched the grand final here and I got us extremely bogged on the beach which meant that we missed the start of the game.

 

And that’s the end of Matt’s blog writing excitement…

 

We ended up staying with Phill and Jen until the Monday after the grand final (that’s the afl grand final for those of you in states that show the REAL football). We headed back to Rockingham pretty slowly (you’ll see why in the photos), and pulled up in Glen’s driveway on 29th Oct.
