Here is Mike in beautiful Kings Park.
The hunt was on to find a home for the next six months. This came in a shape of a campervan!! We managed to purchase a lovely 1998 Toyota Hiace Hitop, complete with fridge, microwave and cooker. Cowhead you would love it, this info is all for you baby!! I know we have promised you a post just on the van but you will have to wait for our next blog to see our new home, bet you can’t wait. This is a taster you BONEHEAD!
However since we have got the van I am sorry to say Mike’s disorder has returned. It was a sad day but I knew it something was wrong when he got that look in his eye and reached for the dustpan and brush!! The dyson has been replaced and CLEAN, CLEAN, CLEAN is his new motto. His new OCD friend is the dustpan & brush and baby wipes! Seriously if we go to the beach and any sand gets in the van, it sends him into a frenzy. Check this out. ( Jen notice any family trait?)
We headed north and our first stop for Mike and I was to visit the eerie Pinnacles. Shelia I thought of you, it was a long drive but we got there in the end and it was well worth it.
Here I am next to a Pinnacle that Mike says it is not as quite as big as his!!! Ha Ha (Aimee can you find Peter?)
After an overnight rest it was then a long drive to the coastal town of Kalbarri. Honestly the roads over here go ON and ON and ON and ON! If you’re wondering yes I have been driving too. You can drive for hours without seeing another vehicle but as you can see the scenery says it all.
Every morning you can watch the Pelicans come for feeding.
Here is Kalbarri National Park and its gorges.
This is called Nature’s Window.

Don't know what you're talking about Danielle, I just don't clean anymore!! My dyson tells a different story.... Just got back from Whitsand Bay Hotel and the weather was extreme! High winds High seas, nothing changes. Perth looks wonderful, just like you said, you are certainly seeing some lovely sights, you both look so chilled and healthy. Stock up on the wine Dan, it might be some miles before you find the next off licence. Passed all your bits to Ian for him to bring over, saw your dad today Dan too.
Take care like I said through those quiet parts!
Will phone you on your mobile very soon, don't wake us up at 2 a.m. again, Dad never slept through worrying!
Love you lots

Hi Guys. You look like you are having a fab time - Leon is soooo jealous that you both are browner than him!!
Sorry if you have replied to our last e-mail and we have ignored you - it's just that we cannot get access at mo. You know what tech whizzes we are tho - i'm sure we'll be back on soon (next year!!). Leon swears I broke it as I was last on it - but that means it was working when I left it, so I'm sure he's done something!! Can't get excited about your camper van - you know what I'm like for camping etc - but I'm glad to hear that Mike is staying true to his domesticated roots!!
Anyway guys, the places look amazing - can't believe the difference in the weather from here!!??, and even the pelicans look cute - although I would have a heart attack if they came anywhere near me!!
Carry on having a fantastic time, miss you loads, love Leon, Sharon, Ella and Andreas xxx
Hi Guys, what amazing photos!!

The camper van looks great and so do your tans, we will all need to get spray tans for the next nine months to keep up with you!! Take Care and keep in touch love Nick, Lisa and Isabella xxx
Sorry Dan, but just a quick question for MIke. Mike do you think it is fair that when we go on Ross's stag do that Mr King and Mark Penprase, i mean cow head, sorry, should be aloud to use the same fancy dress they used on the new year when everyone else has to buy new. This to me is unfair and should be punished. I would like you to chose a drink for the both of them as punishment. We will have a few for you mate.XXX
