We were informed today that the Caravan Park will be in Lockdown from 5pm tomorrow (Friday) afternoon. Susan and I have to make a declaration stating the Caravan Park is our interim accomodation because our primary residence is not available. We have been told the police will be checking in on us, even though the park will be closed. We’re expecting an exodus of people tomorrow as they are also closing the amenities blocks, only those with toilets and showers in their vans are permitted to stay. So all the people in tents and camper trailers will have to leave, its starting to get real now. We have been fairly lucky so far, other than no hand sanitisers, we really haven’t wanted for anything. We expect we will only be allowed to leave the park in the vehicle for shopping (single person only) or medical reasons. Although we are hopeful we will be allowed to walk along the beach opposite the park but that could also be a no-no.
So it looks like we will be in Esperance for the duration of this pandemic, unless we decide to come home but we believe that is fraught with danger in case all travel is stopped and we’re stuck on the Nullarbor somewhere.
We started Be Brave on Tour 6 weeks ago, not knowing how ironic that name has now become. So we’ll follow mum’s mantra and we hope all of you will too! Keep healthy and safe everyone!

Certainly uncertain times we are living in at the moment. A tough decision for you both to make as to whether you return home.
Esperance looks a beautiful spot to stay. Please stay safe – it’s amazing how some people don’t know what social distancing means a walk right up to you.

Hi Sue, we feel pretty safe here but we hope its not for months. Your right about the distancing but it might take sometime for it to happen but seeing people queuing right next to one another is a bit much. Stay safe yourselves.

So sorry that your dream of travelling around Australia took place at such an awful time in history. This is like waiting for the enemy to arrive for all of us! Please take care as we try to take care of ourselves over East! Be Brave Indeed!
