We Left Ceduna in South Australia then arrived late and camped at the back of a road house some where near the middle then keep driving the next day. Two very long days in a small Hyundai excel.

After a lot of quick over night stop it was good to finally make it to Esperance, which was the prefect place to hang out and relax for a coupe of days.

Australia is a big place Western Australia is no exception. Wave Rock though impressive was a really long out and back drive and once you had seen it and took a photo there was not much else out there.

There was a couple of old tall fire look out trees around Pemberton you could climb. I think this one was the Gloucester Tree, A 58m high karri tree. It was a bit nerve racking but we made it too the top, Luckily I don’t remember having to pass anyone going in the other direction.

Wave rock looks awesome! I can imagine the fun you had on this trip. Thanks for sharing!!

Nothing special on the under ground mining tour, just examples of how they used to mine in the olden days.
