Hi all, yes we are still in Esperance and will be here for sometime yet. Everyone in the park was eagerly awaiting the WA Premier’s announcement re the relaxation of travel restrictions, only to be bitterly disappointed when he stated our region was excluded from any travel outside the region, at least until the 18th of June.

We intend to apply for an exemption but we can’t submit it until next Monday, the 18th of May. If it gets approved we will move on to Albany and the southern regions of Perth by the end of next week. If it gets knocked back then we will stay until the 18th of June when the next stage of restrictions come into play. If once again, our region is excluded, we have decided to make our way back east and forget about the rest of WA until its safe to come back. This would be very disappointing as WA was the main focus of our trip around Australia. Both Susan and I were very keen to see the WA coast north of Perth but that may have to be at a later time.

We decided to have a little get-together and drown our sorrows last night, so it was around the campfire with our “Bundy’s”, “Wine” and “Beer” bitching about the decision. I have a feeling there will be more campfire nights ahead of us!

Stay safe and healthy everyone!
