Leave Coolgardie


We leave Coolgardie and make our way back to Norseman on the way we are looking for a spot we saw on our way thru  a couple of vans parked in we found it and stayed the night it is about 5K's from 311 { camps 6 W. A } heading towards Kalgoorlie on the right was a gravel pit nice and solid could be noisy close to rail way couple trains came past but dd not bother us . The next day we head back too Noresman Named after a horse that dug up a nugget of gold.  Fueled up had showers at the truck stop head towards Esperance.We found a top spot large area lots of gravel { 35 camps 6 W.A } we had coffee and the weather was closing in again so made our minds up to push on . Grass patch community run small van park 20 a night for power pay at the tavern free washing machine free gas B.B.Q. walk to the Tavern they have the yabbie classic in may each year great spot we stayed the night.The trip to Esperance  was a good drive we found a small van park that took dogs and stayed  a week Esperance and surrounds really blew us away it has that laid back feel it reminded me of The Entrance , Long Jetty were I grew up in another time .But in the 1970's part of the American space program  feel around Esperance, Skylab and you can see lots of the parts in the fantastic museum in the main street . The coast around Esperance is some of the best we have seen Cape La Grand national park { photo's } is a must see the coastal tourist drive just fantastic and you can get up close to a wind farm as well  the bay is a port, export wheat large ships come from all over the world there was even a cruse ship in the bay on our way out  you can even see a local see loin at the jetty Sami the seal  the bay is also called bay of islands  really is a magic place no wounder you can not get any were near the place around Christmas the beaches etc
