I'll be in WA... but...

Post by El_Freddo » Tue Feb 12, 2013 9:14 pm

Well, plans are afoot for a big trip to WA but it involves my school, Ruby Scoo's not coming and I highly doubt I'll have time to catch up with anyone unless you happen to be camped in the same park/free camp ground and recognise me (doubtful except for those I met in '07).

Anyway what I can tell you is we're headed up from Perth to Exmouth to spend some time on the Ningaloo Reef :twisted: Should be a tough gig all going well!

I'm also after some info on a road between Lancelin and Cervantes (the NP below the town) - I've heard a rumour that it's now a sealed road, I'm doubtful but apparently that's one of the reasons we got these road maps cheap. If anyone can set the record straight that would be awesome.

And I can't believe I'll be in this totally awesome area at I've seen soooo much video footage of without Ruby Scoo or a subaru crew to cruise with!

Still, can't complain - it's going to be an awesome trip even if I'm wrecked after it!

WayneO if I'm out your way I'll try my best to stop in your shop and say g'day ;)

Cheers

Sounds great Bennie, so the big question is.. WHEN??

I'm sure we could swing be and say hello :cool:

BTW.. Tom is correct, the Indian Ocean Drive is a totally sealled road all the way north, coming out on the Brand Hwy just south of Greenough. Also, if you're heading to Coral Bay/Exmouth, then you'll probably miss Kalbarri, unless you turn off the Hwy and stay there for the day. It's a great place to show the kids.. the loop and z-bend

Sweet. This is going to be a great trip, even if it's all black top/un-sealed roads in 2wd vehicles with a bunch of interesting kids.

Will do mate, we could be buying bait from you for all I know - I'm down on the plan to those finer details.

We've got two nights near there, I dare say I'll be able to catch up with WayneO at some stage while we're there - I'm hoping to anyway. We'll be on our return to Perth at this stage.

Really looking forward to it! But I've got a lot of work to do before then - two weeks of school work to have laid out ready to go; I'm going to aim for three so I've got it easy on the first week after the trip ;) We'll see how I go on that one...

Cheers
