Friday 6 September 2013


Below is a brief log that we keep as we are going along. We are sat in a roadhouse on the outskirts of Geraldton at the moment 9pm Friday having steak and chips. Just had a great shower down near the port thanks to a little local knowledge provided by Brian. Yes Brian we did eventually find the showers after we stumbled on the Caltex station after talking to you. Thanks mate.
We should make Karatha tomorrow afternoon. Wont be long out of my sleeping bag tonight. Might just drive up the road for a bit a find a quite spot for the night.
See ya Dave & Ken
