Regretfully it came time to move on, Perth is a lovely place and we had had a great time.
The plan was - after consultation with other travellers and locals, to travell to Esperance and see it now before the Christmas/Hollidays rush.
Through more and more paddocks of grains we went, touching on Lakes Grace and King and grabbing photos and gradually the paddocks started to contain more cattle and sheep.
In Kulin we found a caravan site, but were put off by how run down it was, we proceeded further down the road and found the new you beaut version, drive thru sites, gravel, new facilities, spent a comfortable night.
As we drove from the town next morning a feature was the 20klm Tinman Highway a series of inventive
'sculptures' made from pieces of farm machinery and hay, placed in the paddocks by the road by obviously
competitive farmers, trying to outdo each other, to the viewers benefit.
Overnighting in Ravensthorpe a quaint park surrounded by bush, it had a sandal/thong tree, toilet bowl planters and various 'artefacts', placed quirkily, murals on the amenities block, lots of pot plants. We noticed once again that a proportion of the occupants were working nearby, a phenomenon we are becoming used to.
Experiencing more and more cattle and sheep interspersing the grain paddocks as we pushed on next day.
We chose a beachfront park in Esperance which was very windy and bordering on cold, but that ensured the washing dried quick smart.
