Hey Fellas,

Well went away on boxing day for the camping trip with the ex. Headed east about 350km to a town called Hyden. Spent the night there, then headed south toward Albany, stopping in at Bluff Knoll, then headed along the coast to our camping point in Walpole. the next day, headed north to the winery region and Busselton, and then drove back to perth on the 29th.

Was a good trip. Saw a lot of amazing sights. Ex got sick during the trip. Found out later she was bitten by a tick friday night, and only saw it Tuesday night. Also, managed to drop my mobile down the drain in Walpole caravan park, but managed to save my sim card. And to top it off, my starter motor gave out at one of the wineries in Margaret River. Had to be towed 30km to Busselton where we slept in the car. $600 later for repairs. Got repaired the next morning and was back in Perth by 4pm
