The Richardson's Adventures

Our holiday to Western Australia was initiated from the idea of taking our boys on a extended holiday prior to starting school. We have been camping in tent's, and more recently we had a camper trailer for 3 years. While the camper trailer served us well ( over 30 camping trips ), we have upgraded to our off road caravan. The caravan makes life easier for the overnight stay, quick pack up, and it also has air conditioning. Our holidays have been booked for 2 1/2 years and we have been planning in some sort of fashion since. We have upgraded the car to give hassle free motoring, not to mention the great V8 rumble.

Ceduna SA

Ceduna Jetty

Playdough time

Leaving Streaky Bay we began our travels to Ceduna, only to be frustrated by a fellow caravaner driving at 80kph (Was that you Russell?  Or Russell's clone?)  
What should have taken about one hour, took us just short of two hours.  Provisions for the boys was only morning tea.  That blew out in the first fifteen minutes.  And as the saying goes, "Are we there yet" couldn't have come quicker for us.  
Arriving in Ceduna, we set up camp with the foreshore in front of us.  The caravan park has six foot fencing and barb wire all around.  We asked at the front desk where the best bike trails were.  They suggested if we wanted to keep our bikes we should not go for a bike ride here.  Hmm!!  
So the day was spent walking along the foreshore, down to the jetty and exploring the local park for the boys.  In the afternoon we did a board game appropriate for Jacob and then playdough.  We met our neighbours (Mark, Kim, Georga and Liam) for afternoon tea and drinks.  The boys had so much fun running around with Liam.
