Today we stopped and set up camp at
a free camp at night a friend of ours named Scott came over with his friend and
we had cake and tea.Mon – Today Scott showed us a few caravan parks and we set up in one. After that Scott showed us around town and had lunch at a pub. We also went Scott’s friend’s place and had tea and cake. We also did a bit of shopping then went back to the caravan park.

Wed – Sun - We met up with Jake and Erin again wich is definetly the last time we played with dogs named Buzz, Gerry and Ollie. Ollie was the funest. We also went out and walked the 2 mile jetty it killed but I saw heaps of bullrays. I also got a cold.

We had a full day after packing up camp in Perth venturing south into Rockingham (20kms of Freemantle) and Mandurah (74kms from Perth) As it was Sunday we were unable to book into any caravan parks as they close from 12 noon. We had a lovely lunch overlooking the esplanade at Rockingham. Very busy but pretty place for families; they have a great foreshores area with plenty of facilities including a nice protected beach area. Further onwards we travelled through Mandurah which is a large industrial fast growing city then to a free camp Big Buffalo Rest area approx 25kms north of Bunbury. Our mate Scotty(of 20 years) rocked up and we had a few beers in the van and decided to meet up the next day.

The kids
were happy to see each other again despite the fact we told them Perth would be
the last time. The kids were happy to
ride around the 3 acres where we were staying and play with the 3 dogs who just
loved chasing balls.
