November Hols #1 - North to Coalseam


Our first holiday in November! We drove north with some friends to Coalseam Conservation Park to stay at the beautiful wildflower filled campsite. However it looked like they had much less rain in the last few weeks compared to Perth and the flowers we over and replaced by hoards of dreadful flies! We still walked along the dried up river bed looking for fossils, coal and interesting rocks.




Sick of the flies we retreated to the coast at Cliff Head where the kids had fun on the beach.



The children entertained us around the campsite with their ukuleles.



After a few days of chilling out we travelled back home to Perth taking in the Pinnacles on the way.

Wildflowers Western Australia


Today we went to Kings Park, the World's largest inner city park, to see the wildflower displays. Our favourites were the sculptural kangaroo paws, the state of Western Australia's floral emblem.





There were also carpets of pink, white and yellow everlastings and other wildflowers.








Many of the trees were also in blossom and the Banksias were flowering.







The children enjoyed climbing the trees and walking the nature trail.




We saw the old boabab tree and some great views across Perth.
