Rock. Paper. Horse! Rock smashes Horse, Horse eats Paper, Paper wraps Rock! [Kalbarri]

 

Oh, the views. The beautiiful views.

Kalbarri was a mixture of beauty and rubbish. What I mean is, the place we stayed, a horse ranch, was NOT the highlight. No sir! What was, however, was the, you guessed it, the GORGES. The Kalbarri Skywalk was short, but pretty. It had a little kiosk where we bought some pies, and the large viewing platforms had, well, views!

Nature's Window on the other hand, was a big walk. At the beginning, there's this iconic photo which everyone takes at this rock, but that's where most people turn back, like Mum - she decided to pass on the walk and was happy with her photos. Dad and I kept on going on the hike.

The hike was about 10 k's, and had lots of variety. One moment you're spider-ing on rocks over a river, the next you're casually walking in the bush. I really loved it and it made up for the 5 k's that I didn't do the day before.

We also watched the Grand Final here, or half of it anyway. We went to a pub to watch it, but left at halftime 'cause Dad thought the game was bad.

Don below are some photos, so chick-chick... check 'em out!

Staggering Steeds - Booky By Coopy

Hey Everyone! This isn't a travel blog, instead it's a story I've been writing while traveling! I still don't understand why Mum wanted me to put it up my blog but whatever... Hope you enjoy! S taggering S teeds Chapter 1 Jason Jason’s peaceful silence was suddenly shattered by an enormous boom of thunder, shaking the modern home like a rag doll. Forked arrows sliced the once still night sky. Reactions had to be immediate! Spooked by fear, his corralled brumbies would surely bolt. Jason must act swiftly. Donning his coat, whip in hand, he headed out into the vicious storm. Hand on hat, he ran to his “Stable” if you could even call it that; it had a little room on the side built of rusted metal, which consisted of a shovel, a small bucket, and nothing more. But he didn’t use the door, he rushed past the shed to examine whether his wild mounts were to even be seen. When he came to a halt, he found that two of his brumbies were in his presence. “Phew-” he exclaimed, “Two ...

The FERRIS Wheel We WERE In FELL OVER! (NoT ClIcKbAiT!!! 😮😨🤯) [Cairns]

Image
  Okay... maybe it was clickbait. Scsitneits exlapin taht you're albe to raed sfutf lkie tihs, eevn tguohh the spilleng is ruibbsh. Why am I brigning tihs up? I dnnuo. Cairns was great. Not as great as my hairdresser made it out to be, but still, great. Then again, we didn't do the things she told us to do. We weren't staying in the city of Cairns, but we were close. We did a lot of bike riding, going to water's edge-ing, and trying the Mcdonalds custard raspberry pie thingo. ANYBOG, the park we staying at was right next to a nice creek, we walked and rode down there a lot, so that was cool. What was cooler though was the things we did in Cairns City. On one day we went out to lunch a seafood place on the water's edge. On another day, we took a walk along the boardwalk. There's this place called the Lagoon, which is a massive public pool with sand for a floor. Basically, it's an artificial mini ocean where the crocs don't shine. It had a really good atmo...

How to melt an infant. (Definitely legal!!!) [Innot Hot Springs]

Image
  Toasty. What would happen if you dropped an uncooked steak into a burning hot spring... would it cook? Maybe turn into a stir fry? What about scare everyone out of the hot spring because they thought that lil' Jimmy had an accident? Well, unfortunately we're not gonna find out. That might be a good thing actually, the steak would taste like rock water.. . Anybog, when we were at Innot Hot Springs, we found out that hotspring + closetoourcaravan = verygood . The caravan park we were staying at was home to a hot spring, which was then divided into six pools. Each pool is a different temperature, so you could spend an hour comparing them. Except the hottest 2 were adults only so no kids burn their toenails off. Bog. When we arrived, we very quickly set up and then headed over to the pools. After that we headed off for a walk, saw a sign that literally said,  "PVRAITE PROEPTRY" ... and found the "Knowledge Tree"... which was very knowledgeable. You can tell b...

Hervey Bay! Check it out! [Hervey Bay & K'gari]

Image
Stuff Day. Yo. Cooper here. Did you know that Hervey Bay is cool? In case you didn't allow me to teach you; Hervey Bay is cool. Now that you know, let's talk about it. One of the main attractions of Hervey Bay is K'gari, previously known as Fraser Island. It recently had an official name change, and K'gari is pronounced like "Curry" but with a G instead of a C. The K is silent.  We headed over to K'gari by first getting picked up from a caravan park via bus, then taken over to the island by ferry, and then hopping into a 4-wheel-drive bus. We had to do a lot of sitting. The bus ride was very bumpy, and very long, but after a while we arrived at one of the towns. Our driver then took us down the beach, where we could take a look at the Maheno Shipwreck. Before that, however, us three took a fifteen minute plane ride over the island. It was pretty sick, but they didn't go over the ocean like they said they would. Bog. After the shipwreck, we were taken t...

Oof. This is awesome. [Esperance]

Image
  RAC really outdid themselves this time. Okay, so I know the last two blogs have been a bit, er, short and boring, but to tell the truth, I really didn't have much to say for those locations! Esperance, however, is a different story. We stayed at an RAC park, which always have a reputation for being really nice. This park did NOT ignore that reputation. The camp kitchens were so lovely, we actually used  them! Can you believe that? Us - use the camp kitchen! Incredible! Oh, and the pool is warm for once. I'm actually writing this in the camp kitchen. Esperance has some fantastic beaches, on our first day, which should really be a travelling day but we came a day early, we drove around a loop which showed off all the beachs. Blue Haven, Salmon Beach, Twilight Beach, this beach, that beach, oh mah gawd there's a lot. All of them, however, were magnificent! Rocks, cliffs, SAND, they have it all! We had Subway for once in long time here, and I had forgotten HOW GOOD those Subw...

Never did I think a shopping centre would be so cool… [Treasure Island]

Image
  I like me some treasure. That treasure be gold. The Gold Coast. After leaving our friends (very tragic) we went to Treasure Island, near Surfers Paradise. And oh boy, this caravan park was the most kid-friendly park I have ever seen. - One pool, with a slide. - Another pool, with a water fall. - A third pool because why not.. - A splash park. - Basketball court. - Outdoor cinema. - Jumping PILLOW. - Mini golf. - Go karts. - In-park restaurant. - Staff run activities. - Multiple playgrounds. I could go on. Anyway, apart from the caravan park, the actual location was honestly a bit “meh”. It was nice, don’t get me wrong, but this was the first place that felt like a city. Or, Surfers Paradise did, anyway. Treasure Island was alright . While we were here, we met up with a cousin of mine, Nick. We had lunch with him, and then walked down the beach, as there was currently an art festival thingo, so there was a bunch of artworks to look at, though some were better than others. Some pie...

The Air is full of Midgies! [Airlie Beach]

Image
  Try our new special, Sunshine with a side of Awe! Airlie Beach. Very slay, as they say.  Airlie Beach had a really awesome feel in the town. There was a market every Saturday, heaps of amazing restaurants, and grass clearing next to the water. In our time, we explored the market, when on bike rides, went on some sunset cruises of debatable quality, and MORE. （⊙ｏ⊙） - One sunset cruise was nice… but just nice. After the sunset, all that was left to do was sit and wait to dock again while listening to cringe music. I don't even know what you would even call the music. Bog. - Dad & I were planning to go JetSki-ing at some point but the company said the  the water was too choppy,  so they suggested we didn’t go. Second bog. I was looking forward to that. Anyway, m y favourite part of Airlie Beach was just the atmosphere. The waterfront cafes, the bars, everything was just so alive. Even the caravan park, with bird feeding every day and food trucks every nigh...

Rain... THE MOVIE!!! [Ellis Beach]

Image
A certain someone will understand that title. You witness a master at work. A master at doing something incredible. Something most don't have the time to do. Something most do not have the dedication to perform. That something... is writing a useless intro about masters at work. Anyway, let's talk about Ellis Beach. It is great. The caravan park is on the beach, literally. You can walk off a site and you'll be on the sand. Our site was pretty damn good, and we could always hear the waves. But, it's all very fun and games until you realise it was raining the WHOLE TIME.  It's such a nice spot, but the weather just decided to take a massive bog on it. Bruh. On the first day, we went to the nearby Palm Cove for a walk with Jazzy. Palm Cove is noice. Very noice. It wasn't raining there, because why not, WEATHERMAN?  So we hung out for a little while. On another day, we went again without Jaz and had lunch at an Italian joint. We had some pizza, theorised about Ken...

More contact has been made! [Friends' Place & Victor Harbour]

Image
  And so, our time with Taylor and Shannon has ended... but the trip must go on! Yeesh, those titles are so dramatic. I will admit though, I am very sad that they're gone. It was good having some more people around. Anyway, after Hahndorf, where Taylor and Shannon drove away and left us, we headed to Charleston, which wasn't very far away, only about a 20 minute drive. Fun fact; one of our old friends lives here, so we stayed at their farm. Whew, their farm... Had more than a few vehicles. I estimate... 2 million utes, 5 thousand buggies, 3 hundred tractors, and... I'm kidding. But still, there was a lot of  motor-mayhem happening here. Besides the odd amount of vehicles, we had a good time, excluding Mum, who had terrible hayfever. Next stop, Victor Harbour! Since Coffin Bay, this is the first location where it was just us again. We stayed here for 3 days, and while Mum and Dad were chillin', I was working on a School Captain speech for when I get back to school, as I...

The most creative name in history!.. ToWnSvIlLe.✨ [Townsville]

Image
First person to name this font in the comments gets a virtual cookie. Now, I'm not trying to poke fun at anyone who lives in Townsville, but seriously, what is up with the name? I know it's was named after someone's last name being Towns, but in my opinion, Townsville sounds like the the most generic place in existence. If I heard "Townsville" and didn't know what it was, I'd think it was the absolute DEFAULT setting for a town. Except, that is not the case. Far from it. Townsville is great, my friends. So, let's talk about the place itself. Townsville was super cool, it remined me a lot of Palm Cove, back at Ellis Beach, but I think that was just because of the road being next to the water. When we first arrived, we checked out the sculpture walk along the beach. Some were quite impressive and interesting. Other's were... let's just say one of them was imported from America, and it can go back there too. While we were in Townsville, we met up ...
