Western Australia- One hell of a big place!

This PHOTO BLOG is from our time in Western Australia. All up we spent 10 months travelling down the west coast. We loved it, but we did get a bit fed up with the wind, especially being in a camper trailer. One of our highlights was our trip out to Steep Point which is the western most point of Australia’s mainland. We didn’t even touch the inland regions of this great state but we have promised ourselves that we will go back to do some more exploring!

Photos are in random order!
