How's the weather been so far, I hear you ask? Well, we've had sunshine every day with temperatures around 19 to 21c. There was torrential rain in Perth on our second night and a brief shower this evening. So for the rainiest month of the year, we've been quite lucky. However, the days are short, with sunrise around 7am and sunset at 6pm. It gets quite chilly in the evenings and some nights have been uncomfortably cold, so we splashed out on some blankets to supplement our thin duvets. It will get warmer as we move further north (that just doesn't sound right!).
Meanwhile, back in Carnarvon, we set up camp for the night and had dinner in the communal kitchen. This is a great feature of Australian camping culture. Every campsite provides gas barbecues, stoves and a seating area. A good way to mingle with the neighbours and more convenient than cooking in the camper van, which can get a bit cramped.
