Might be a good time now to mention TIME ZONES. What a fiasco!! Watches back 30 minutes at Broken Hill, back another 60 minutes just before Cook, and finally, back 90 minutes just before Perth. It was like being in Antarctica in summer - no bloody sunset!!!! Of course, I wasn't confused!!! Much better now - only three hours behind NSW, and two behind QLD - easy peazy!
Day 3 (Mon) saw us in Cook in the morning, and Kalgoorlie in the evening - at least, I think it was evening; it was dark, and my photos didn't turn out well!

This is all I have time for now. The pub is calling. This is our last night in Albany, leave early tomorrow morning for Fremantle, about 5 hours away.
Would like to be up early enough to get a photo of the sunrise - yes, the sun rises over the water here! The trouble is, it's about 5am, not my favourite time of day!!!
Al's going fishing with Peter tomorrow until Sunday, so I'm all alone in Fremantle for the weekend.
Meeting Luke on Saturday; will give the Gossages a ring as well.
Leave on our coach tour next Friday (21st).
Talk to you all soon.
Love to everyone.
Maur & Al

Love the photos and it looks like the weather is being kind to you. Look after our Luke and don't let him lead you astray at the nightspots in Freo!!! We'll wait for more commentary and photos. Enjoy the peace and quiet without Al annoying you!! Hope he catches plenty of fish!! Love Vernon and Pam
