Week 511 - Quindanning, Western Australia

Our blog comes to you from the last week of 2018.
We have now completed a little more than 10 years on the road, but it seems like yesterday that we left Bushy's place at Chandler to start our travels.  Everyday is an adventure with a bonus of our lovely Shitzu, Rusti.

We have now completed our visit to Perth and caught up with some wonderful people including Red Light, our old friends Ivan and Del from Kelmscott, fellow travellers Rob and Maxine, Will and Leigh, Steve and Louise, Phil and Connie to name a few.
A couple of vintage hot rods - 
We were lucky enough to do a tour 
around the south of Perth in these
 vintage vehicles.
See no evil, hear no evil, do no evil, think no evil - 
A sad day in our world of travelling.  
We will not see these folks on the road again.  
We have enjoyed their company immensely 
and await an invitation to the "house warming" 
at their penthouse on the 14th floor overlooking 
Fremantle and Perth.
Horror, Wanger and Red Light
Spaghetti Highways - the highways and biways
 of Perth are a pot of spaghetti.  
Miss one turn off and you are stuffed!!

Since our last visit to Perth, the roads, the roundabouts and freeways have changed quite a bit. Perth is growing up!! Some of our haunts of 2011-12, were were unrecognisable. Things have changed and we were not so comfortable in our surroundings.

Vintage 1928 - and it ran like clockwork.
St Bonaface Church, Quindanning - 
this church was built one year after I was born.


Our initial departure took us back to Boddington. The place was packed and we were 
uncomfortable, so after a couple of hours we decided to push on to one of our favourite 
pubs, Quindanning Hotel.

A couple of pints of Little Creatures Rogers and I managed to clear my head and plan 
our migration from Western Australia to the East.

We wish you a Happy New Year from our motorhome (On On Home). Jo, Horror and Rusti.
