All the pre planning.

After many hours planning, phoning and pawing over maps, tomorrow we head of north. Exmouth our destination, then back to Perth via a mixture of roads.
We will be towing our Avan adventure plus van behind our D240 Defender.
There will be seven vehicles of different makes in our convoy.

The trip.
Our trip to Exmouth proved to be fairly organised with few issues.
My vehicle has long range tanks fitted so fuel stops reduced considerably. Perth to Carnarvon, then back to Carnarvon. Fuel in Carnarvon $1.989
The swim with whale sharks was amazing, we enjoyed the company of four sharks. One just swam around and around our group giving plenty of viewings.
Our return was marred by rain the further south we travelled. As we went inland to look for wild flowers, Murchison and south did not disappoint. We enjoyed a carpet of flowers, many different colours and shades, almost to Mullewa.
As weather conditions were not improving, we headed directly for home after visiting the Morawa Police museum.
