Back from Perth and WA's Coral Coast

We returned last night after a 2-week trip.

It was a tremendous trip not only we spent time with Joo, Connie & Jamus but Raeyen had miraculously recovered from his bout of diarrhea and nausea. Then hubby was feverish and had diarrhea for 2 days when we arrived at Kalbarri. Poor Raeyen had fever every night while we were at Coral Coast and back to Perth. Luckily the rest of us were well. Nonetheless, the weather was fantastic - sunny and windy, only little rain near the end of our trip. We have seen, eaten alot and had fun a great deal altogether.

We arrived in Perth in the early morning of Friday 28 Sep and started the roadtrip on the rented Toyata Tarago (Estima) the next day. Here's our itinerary:
