Exmouth (Western Austrailia)

Arrived at 3am after a fairly short bus ride, although a traumatic one, we hit loads of roo's on the way!! Was knackerd so checked into a backpackers for the night, a dorm aswell first time!!! We was failry lucky we was just in there with another couple! We checked out in the morning and made our way to the campsite. Campsite was really nice had a pool, tv lounge nicely packed kitchen so we was ok!
We got a bike out had a cycle round the town, made our way down to the beach, which was amazing we was just stood looking out over the oceon and in the distance we could see a whale splashing around, it was a humpback whale and it was just brilliant stood there watching it, did take a pic but its just its fin splashing on the water! We cycled along some cycle paths and all over was signs with pics of roo's and emu's saying watch out for wildlife, and also seen one saying beware of Dingo's..apparently they attack the wheels of the bike, luckily we didnt see anything!!
In the evening we just made a meal then made our way down to the tavern, had a few drinks there then back to the campsite!!
Next moring JJ (paul's new nickname for Jason) and Harry had arrived so we just had a walk to town and then spent rest of afternoon round pool and late afternoon went for a game of mini golf..then stopped off on way home at bottle shop for bottle of gin and bottle of tonic, that was us for night!
We decided to go on a sunset scooter safari next evening, was really good we went to bundegi beach, boys did some snorkelling, Paul went really far out to the coral and saw a turtle and he was following a little fish around and then he saw a shark (reef shark) just sat on the bottom looking at him, dont think he has ever swam so fast in his life ha ha!!! We also visited muldurra ship wreck, went to turtle sancturay and then made our way to the lighthouse where we sat eating cheese and crackers with bottle of beer and watched the sun go down!! Jax had slight accident on scooter, she only ended up with bruises and grazes ha ha!! After the safari we went to the tavern had far too many jugs then made our way to the potshot bar and drank a bit more there!
Next morning the boys had been roped in to doing some work for the couple who worked at the mini golf for only 1 hr or so, out of it though we got free bike hire for the day, so we was off. JJ had bought a fishing rod so we went down the marina and did a bit of fishing, it was so funny think i spent most of day laughing! Bit of a disaster at first JJ broke the handle off his reel, so him and Paul went to replace it, only to come back with new rod...after a while they managed to get a mackrel!!! That eveing was happy hr at the tavern, needless to say we was there, spent a fair bit of time at the tavern then made our way to the potshot...! Very merry we went back to the campsite where JJ cooked his fish and Harry cooked up a pasta meal for us, and we all tucked in with a glass of gin!
Next morning feeling worse for wear and deciding to lay of the booze for a while we went back down to the marina for a bit more fishing...Paul got a sailing boat out and went out for a couple of hrs..! JJ did us proud and caught a whiting???? (big enough for us to have a little sample each)! Evening was spent in the tv room!
Our last day in Exmouth we decided to hire a car out, we went to Cape Range National park, we visited Yardie Creek, Sandy bay..the beach here was lovely we had a bit of picnic then JJ got his rod out and we went for a swim! Oh yeh saw a turtle to! We also went up Mandu Mandu Gorge, Turquoise Bay, then Lakeside before we ventured home! Bit of a long night infront us, we had the Greyhound to catch at 0030, so sat in picnic bay and waited for couple of hrs there was this german bloke there with his guitar so he played us some music and sang a little!!
