14/12/19 Beach break

    Here we are again after an attempted repair on the van , we are back moving again . While we've been grounded , we've been checking out Mandurah and the estuary , getting out on the bikes and enjoying the plentiful bike tracks around the waterways .

 This is looking across the estuary to the canal homes 

 I did manage a couple of games of golf , Lyn even came around with me at Secret Harbour , taking a few photos on the way - yep sank the putt as well !!

  While the van was out of action we spent time with Emma , assisting her where we could . After the van was back in our hands again , we headed off to Bunbury for a couple of weeks , catching up with Mick & Sue - friends we met on the way to Cape York in 2017 . We were also thinking one night we hadn't seen John & Julie , who we met in Karratha and again in Exmouth . Funnily enough next day we were in Kmart at Eaton Fair and who should be bump into , yep John & Julie . We organised to meet them for a coffee - we had tea - the next day and then for some afternoon drinks .
 Here's some shots from Bunbury - The Rose Hotel

  This is from The Cut at Turkey Point looking back into Koombana Bay .

 This is also Koombana Bay from the Rotary Lookout above town .

 Also from the Rotary Lookout is the lighthouse .

  After Bunbury we went all of 60 odd kilometres to Busselton - well about 14klms the western side of town , but stopped on the way and got this one of the iconic Busselton Jetty .

There are some beautiful places around Dunsborough which is 9klm from us , this is Meelup Beach .

 This is Castle Rock .

 One of our favourites is Shelley Cove at Bunker Bay - it never disappoints .

 As you can see the cliffs are limestone , and are well eroded - there are warning signs - for those that read them - to stay away from the cliffs in case of falling rocks .

  Further around on the western side of the Cape Naturaliste NP is Sugarloaf Rock - quite impressive - it's actually much larger than it looks in the photo .

  This is looking toward Cape Naturaliste to the right of Sugarloaf Rock .

  That's it for the moment , more to come as we spend more time in this beautiful area . Here's a map link : - https://drive.google.com/open?id=1gLwgms4-6xAx0-QKIosaDxERY477seiO&usp=sharing
