Monkey Mia!

Flipper!

An intruder!


We made some friends at last!

Dave looking cool as ever!


As we drove up from Kalgoorlie we met up with Nic's very sunburnt parents in Geraldton, and we went though to see the pub we worked at on the way, showing Dave the true desolation of our home for 2 and a half months! Nic's Dad was on fine form, telling us stories of how he gave the Cops a run for their money on the journey up there, and he kept harassing a Chinese guest of his hotel yelling out 'G'Day Bruce!'. Nic goes red and we all crack up. After a night there we said goodbye to the parents and the three of us carried on up towards a place called Shark Bay, which has a resort called Monkey Mia, no monkeys (or sharks that I know of) were involved, but Dolphins a plenty! We went along to the resort and they feed the dolphins a few times every morning and about 4 turned up on cue to come and say hi! We went on a boat to see lots of wildlife, which was good except we only saw about 5 dolphins and 1 turtle and were forced to wear these horrific 'polarised' sunglasses complete with a headband for increased security/embarassment levels. It did nothing to improve the look of the the 2 spams in the group. We also did a sunset cruise which was pretty awesome because we got to see dolphins jumping out of the water in front of us! Oh and we had a few beers on the boat, brill!
