Daybreak is more civilized at around 6:45am now so we rise early, pack up and head for Norseman. We haven’t had proper showers for 2 days now (just warm sponge baths) so we are really looking forward to staying in a caravan park tonight.
We stop in Norseman and fill up with petrol and find a local coffee shop for breakfast. Bacon and eggs and although not the Choux Box (Best Coffee Shop at Kingscliff in northern NSW) coffee it will do for now. The girl behind the counter, despite having only about 4 teeth in her head, was very pleasant, friendly and helpful. Breakfast was very old fashioned and huge so I ate ½ and wrapped the rest up to take back to Lucy who was patiently waiting in the car by the park across the road.
It takes us about 4 hours to Esperance, on the south western end of Western Australia.
We get a phone call from Jan and Alan to say they are already in Esperance and they are staying in a caravan park which is not pet friendly. We have already booked into Bathers Caravan Park, north of the town and with Easter coming up we can only stay there until (Good) Friday morning. Jan and Alan will leave on Thursday.
We have a problem with our battery so on the way we stop at a battery specialist. They tell us it will take a couple of hours to fix so we patiently wait. It will take longer than expected so they ask us if we can come back tomorrow and pick up the battery which we agree to.
We are desperate for showers so as soon as we get to the caravan park and find our site we head off to the showers. It is heaven. I also do a couple of loads of washing while Nick fine tunes the setting up of our camp.
Jan and Alan have ridden their bikes around to see us and give us a report on the places here to see.
