Road Trip Day 3&4

It is so much easier to catch up every other day than to try and remember every evening... We are currently in Busselton. Let me catch you up.
Yesterday we spent most of the day driving and got into Cervantes (the most westward you can go in Australia!)  Around 4:30 so we headed to the shops and grabbed some sausages, corn on the cob and some green beans to throw on the grille for a good old fashioned Aussie sausage sizzle. By the time we got our tent up (we have it down to 10 minutes flat!) Cooked dinner and done the dishes it was getting dusk and quite chilly. We threw on our hoodies And I insisted on a walk on the beach since I knew our time was limited the next morning. I am so glad we did! The sunset line was dotted with dozens of lobster boats and the kids ran along the packed sand in the pink and orange light chasing each other. By the time we got back and put the kids to bed they were passed out cold.
 This morning we woke up and packed up in record time as rain threatened us and we didn't want the tent and awning to get soaked before folding it up for the day. Then we headed out to the Pinnacles... Pretty much the thing Cervantes is known for, they are giant limestone pillars that have come and formed up and out of the ground! They had a drive around trail so we opted for that and so glad we did. The sky was slightly overcast still from the morning showers and made the lighting perfect for pictures and exploring a bit.







We drove through Perth in mostly rain this afternoon and got in to Busselton to the RAC campsite around 330. Once again I am floored by these sites! We have an Ensuit again at our site (thank you hallelujah)  and this campground has a free mini golf course, a pillow bounce, 2 large playgrounds, a cricket pitch, rugby field, footy goals, BMX course and so much more. There is a family of ducks that visit us frequently now too... That may or may not have to do with the bread we have been feeding them...oops!
