Two Rocks!!! 27th November 2010
We went to Two Rocks and Yanchep for a visit, it was lovely there we ended up parking our vans at the Marina and stayed for the day and then went to the Two Rocks Lookout to stay the night.
Guilderton!! 27th November 2010
We stopped at Guilderton to have a look but no spots to put the cray pot, unless you had a boat so we continued on our way, it was a beautiful spot but not dog friendly at all.
Sandy Cape National Park!! 25th November 2010
We decided to head down south with Dick and Jude to see if we could find some more spots to drop the cray pot, we stopped at Sandy Cape Recreation Park, it was a beautiful spot in a lovely bay, Dave and Ebony went for a swim to see if they could see any crays but they got bitten by sea lice so they got out quicky. We decided it was time to have the 3 crayfish we caught for dinner, we all got half a cray each and they were delicious!!!

Crayfish at Seven Mile Beach!!!! 19th November 2010
We had the best time at Seven Mile Beach near Dongara in WA, Dick and Jude found out about this free camp site and let us know, so off we went, its only meant to be a 72 hour camp but we stayed for a week, Mary and Selwin Body were on holidays so we asked them to come and join us aswell and we had a great time, beautiful roast dinners, lots of fishing and we tried some diving for crayfish and there was heaps, Ebony had a ball trying to catch them but we could not catch one, so Dick and Dave decided to buy a craypot and get a licence, they dragged it out to sea and......day one, no crays.......day two, 2 crays but they got away.......day three, one cray...... and day four, 14 crays only 2 that were size, so a total of 3 crays, we could have just brought some crays from the shop cheaper but the entertainment was priceless. Dick and Dave got to spend a day out on one of the crayboats to see how it was done, they had a great day and we all had a fantastic week, all Dave talks about is going back up north to Seven Mile Beach.

Kalbarri!!! 12th November 2010
We finally got to meet up with our friends from Tom Price Dick and Jude in Kalbarri, Dick and Dave were all set to try to dive for some crayfish but it wasnt quite season so we tried a bit of fishing instead not a lot of luck there either but we had a great time, we also met up with the Telford family again so the kids had a great time at the beach, Kalbarri is a beautiful place, there is a lot to see and do, but lots of flies and wind.
