Long Way Over – Star Log Day 23

Jurien Bay to Perth

A drive around Jurien Bay, fly the drone briefly, then a coffee and a drive around Cervantes before heading back to Perth. We like Jurien Bay, its clear waters, and its easy relaxed vibe. And Cervantes looks a but bigger and s fair bit older.

We decided to come to Kings Park in Perth for a walk around before going to our hotel near the airport.

The Botanical Gardens are excellent, the walks wind around different botantic areas of WA,  there are lots of varieties of native plants by region. It’s Sunday, so there are lots of people in the park, Sunday loungers, hipsters, fathers with sons (on scooters), bikers on their Triumphs and Harleys trying to look cool in jeans and leather. The view over the city is terrific.

Only a week ago, The Don crashed on to a Hop On Hop Off bus floor in the rain at Kings Park. He’s recovering now, but the scene of the crime must bring back the memory of an event that he has no memory of.

Dinner at the motel is interesting, the Sanno Maracoonda is a base for fly in fly out operators, so it feels a bit like a mine canteen (I don’t know what one looks like, so it’s in my imagination)

Tomorrow we fly home. We left Dubbo 3 weeks and one day ago, it seems longer. The trip has been terrific, great company on both legs of the trip and we’ve seen a lot of places we’ve never seen before.

Ciao from Perth
