Western Adventure - Day 1

The first day of the trip started early. Up by 4.00 am to get ready for a 5.00am shuttle to Sydney Domestic Terminal to catch our 8.00am flight. All went well and I was surprised to see the airport was not choked with folk trying to fly out for the school holidays.

We took off a little late but had a smooth uneventful flight in which I caught up with some in flight movies. Really liked one called "Source Code" which I had not seen before,

After arriving & picking up our car a little red Hyundai Coupe we arrived at our hotel to be told we would need to wait 2 hours for our room. Not what you want when you got up early & find you have gained 2 hours flying across the country. Anyway we had some lunch, found an IGA for groceries & are back in our room for an early night. Tomorrow the journey starts as we head East (not West which sounds unusual ) to Wave Rock for our next stop on the road trip.

Did you know that in WA shops actually close on Sunday. We could not find a chemist that was open, we did however, find at least a dozen pubs that were. No surprises there. Worse news in WA digital TV equals 5 channels - how rude!
