Well, after nearly 22500kms, we're back home in Perth! We have been away for 4 months and had a wonderful time. On the final stretch down from Port Hedland to Perth, we passed an endless stream of trucks on the road, some with up to 4 trailers, with all sorts of loads: mining equipment, iron ore, houses, machines, vehicles, cattle etc. It certainly looks like the WA mining industry is thriving. It was raining on the last day which is great for the farmers who need follow up rains for their crops.

We really enjoyed every place we saw. Australia has so much varied scenery and it is all beautiful, just in different ways. There are still places we were unable to get to on this trip, so I hope we'll be able to go to them on another big trip some time in the near future. EF
