Day 102 Monday 25th July



We left Albany at about 8.30 today. We drove through lots of Australian bluegum forest then we drove through fields of wheat and canola. It was amazing . The fields went for miles and miles. Every so often there were huge silos. We arrived in Esperance this afternoon.
After we had afternoon tea we went for a walk along the bay and then onto the jetty. The bay was beautiful with over 100 islands off the coast.
As we walked along the jetty we saw a sea lion frolicking in the water. There were lots of fishermen on the jetty and the sea lion was waiting for some fish scraps to be thrown over to him. He was gorgeous.
It is quite warm here, being 17 degrees at 7.30 at night. It got up to 22 degrees today.
Distance travelled today 478 km
