Jurien Bay and Sandy Cape, WA
After spending a few days recuperating in Perth (getting away from Children during school holidays), we left suburbia and headed North to Sandy Cape Recreation Park, just outside the town of Jurien Bay. We were excited to be back in the Troopy and away from the restrictiveness of city life. Driving down the dirt road…

Rottnest Island, WA
Making our way up the WA coast, it was getting closer and closer to our trip to Rottnest Island, an adventure that we had been looking forward to for a very long time and definitely had played a part in us doing this trip in the first place! We arrived in Fremantle and spent some…

Margaret River, WA
Back on the road and we were now heading deep into the South West of WA and the Margaret River area. Renowned for its wineries, beautiful coastline and surfing. Due to the long drive from Denmark, we decided to camp in a National Park campground called Jarrahdene Campground. This started off quite peacefully, nestled amongst…

Denmark, WA
As we made our way further West along the south coast of WA, the scrub and flat bushland started to thicken and more trees started to appear as we were driving. We were both fans of this, because as much as the Australian outback is beautiful in its own way, it gets pretty boring when…

Albany, WA
After saying goodbye to the beaches of Esperance, it was time to continue heading west towards Albany. We again decided to treat ourselves and found a great deal on Airbnb (please sponsor us) to base ourselves, in order to explore the region. However, we did have a night to kill before then and decided to…

Esperance Region
After making it across the desert and scrub of the Nullarbor, you better believe it was a relief when the scenery changed to the blue water and white sandy beaches of Esperance! We had booked an Airbnb to treat ourselves after roughing it since leaving Adelaide, but for our first night we decided on a…

The Nullarbor
Well, it was finally time. Time to tackle the dreaded Nullarbor with two people who don’t generally love long non-scenic drives… Firstly, the whole planning of the drive was complicated, as we had to figure out where to camp and where to fill up diesel. The second point being the most important, as I’m not…

Eyre Peninsula
Moving on from windy Port Lincoln, we drove in search of warmer and better weather in the lovely town of Coffin Bay, a 45 minute drive up the road. We had booked a campsite in the Coffin Bay National Park called Black Springs and we were in for a challenge, as it was 15km of…

Adelaide-Port Lincoln
Once done with the Great Ocean Road, we spent a hectic week and a half back home in Adelaide. Even though it had only been around a month since we had left, we had been missing home a little and especially the doggos. I think both sets of parents had also been missing us and…

The Great Ocean Road (and Lameroo)
Back at it again with the close together posts. No chance that it will continue, but here we go. Well, we managed to survive the boat ride back and we were now into an arguably more dangerous situation of driving a troopy through Melbourne… We did however manage to catch up with Alex, one of…
