3rd February to 10th February We left Bremer Bay full of exciting memories and headed off to make some more. As usual we took our time and had an overnight stop in Fitzgerald. Interestingly, we had stayed at Fitzgerald six months earlier and Peter had done a thorough campground cleanup. Six months later there …
30th January – 3rd February Oh Boy! Where do I start? Normally I would show a map, talk about our camp and the area, then get into our activities. Not today. Today I get straight to the exciting stuff. Orcas. But you know what I’m like, I do tend to prattle on a bit …

Mostly for those …
