Three Springs 21st - 27th April


 
Wow what a week ...

Working up until the day before we were due to leave made for an interesting start. With a few last minute adjustments, making the caravan beds, and putting the finishing touches to the house, cleaning and of course assisting the real-estate agent with potential renters.... it was go go go. With a visit from Dad Somers and the neighbours taking a photo to send us on our way, we hit the road at 1pm. All excited we truly had no idea what to expect. The drive was great as we enjoyed a relaxing trip up to Three Springs. For the boys the most exciting part was driving through Moora in the smoke during the burning off in the neighbouring fields.

 
The Lane family (Kent, Chris, Kyle, Cassie & Kade) have made the start to our Australia Trip better than we ever imagined. Kent is Bell's cousin and we have been meaning to catch up with Kent & Chris Lane for years on their farm. The boys have been settling well into the new sleep routine, eating whenever we get the chance and just living in the moment.

The weeks adventure including getting to know all about the farm from collecting the eggs, catching chickens (pictured -
Aiden, Cassie, Kyle, Kade & Riley), checking the water troughs, cruising around on the back of the land cruiser checking out the farm, exploring the old and new machinery and toasting marshmallow over the fire. We included a day trip to Dongra and some fishing. Chris & Chris really got into the cooking as we had a different cuisine from a different country every night. Including a local catch from Kent if you know what I mean! baaaaaaa ........
Enjoy our weeks adventure below. (You may need to pause the video at the beginning, let it load, then play it.)

Three Springs is located 313km north of Perth and 173km south east of Geraldton.
