Merry Christmas from the Griffo's...

Fortunately Santa was visiting Perth on the day we took in the sights.


 This photo was taken some time ago, when we were at Cape Range National Park.

 At Port Julien we managed to park next to Bonnie Doon. Ah! the serenity. Sonia cooked up some fish and chips....it was the way she did it. Cloe an Kai found some shells, they'll be going straight to the pool-room.

 The foliage changed once again down the coast.
 The Bell Tower in Perth. You might spot it again in a couple of the following photos.

 Yes, we all climbed Jacob's Ladder. We had the "Eye of the Tiger" theme song going on in our minds. Nice "guns" guys.
 Had to include this photo. Yes, it is the inside of a Gentleman's toilet in Perth. Above the urinal is a television to watch the Cricket and on the right was a one way window so you can see what is happening at the bar.

 Cloe and Kai taking in the sights at Mandurah....good car colour choice kids.
 Falcon's even ruling the water ways.
 In the background is the Fremantle Maritime Museum. A highlight inside was the full size Australia 2 replica.
 More boats than cars in Fremantle, hence they have to park their boats three stories high.

 Fun in Mandurah.
A home for Ollie, Kai's Camel from Cable Beach.

Carnarvon...

A few memories from Carnarvon.

 A drive out to the Blow-holes. The new light-house in the distance.




A Banana anyone?
 Reminds us of our Tomato plants back home! Before the water restrictions.

 "The-Dish".

 Sunset at the caravan park, well spotted Caroline.
 Guess who noticed this sign first?
 The train which took us for a 1 mile ride on the Carnarvon jetty. The original steam train was used to transport wool to the ships.

 Cool Garfish dad

 The most famous "Mad-eight" recorded to shear no less than 240 sheep a day....each!


Once upon a time this light-house lived on top of this tower. Crazy winds here.

You may wish to change your computer "back-grounds" to one of these photos...





From Broome to Exmouth

Along the coast from Coral Bay to Exmouth





 Where did the road go?


 Three of these provide Coral Bay with their power supply
 Prawns are worth catching at Exmouth...
