I'm back! Well actually, I was back late Tuesday night. Wanna see some photos from my trip? I want to post photos because otherwise this will end up as a long boring post like some others. ANd photos are more interesting.
**NOTE: I did NOT take all of these photos myself. Mum took some, Dad took some and my brothers and sisters probably took some.**
So we set out driving on a Thursday. I wanted to leave at 5 in the morning, except we still had to pack and Mum likes to come home to a tidy house.
On the way, we drove past a wind farm.
*Taken by Dad* |
We stopped at a town on the way and stayed there on Thursday and Friday night. On Friday morning, we had breakfast at a cafe with some friends. I had some average pancakes with delicious blueberries and yummy sauce.
Later that day, we went rock walking at a place where ther was lots of rocks.
This is my favourite photo from the whole trip. I like the colours. Don't you think it looks a bit like a layer cake that has collapsed? |
*Both taken by Dad*
The next day (Saturday) we left that beautiful town and drove. And drove. And drove. Until 6 at night when we arrived at our final destination.
Driving *not sure who took this* |
We did lots of fishing at the back of the reef, and almost as much snorkeling. I saw 2 stingrays {which I'm absolutely terrified of}. Don't you hate it when you're snorkel ling in a big group, and someone kicks you in the face? We caught a MASSIVE mackerel while trolling in our boat. And then a shark swam up behind it and stardted chasing it then bit half off. Evil Shark. It still fed all of us + some friends though.
Some other photos.
Termite Mounds while driving. Mum took that photo. The face isn't edited in... *Mum's photo* |
An emu just next to where we were staying. *A sibling's photo*. |
The lighthouse just behind where we were staying. *My Photo* |

Whales. We saw them almost every day. I think that photo is zoomed. *Not sure who took this* |
5 Things that I Did/Saw That I Have Never Seen/Done Before
- Passed the Tropic of Capricorn
- Saw termite mounds in person
- Snorkelled the Ningaloo Reef
- Seen a shark/stingray/manta ray that's not in captivity.
- Gone the furtherest north I've ever been.
My siblings had a rest day on Wednesday, but I - Being the nerd I am - went to school. I was nervous, as if I was starting a new school.
What do you think of the photos? Let me know.
P.S. I'm keeping my name as Frangipani the Fish (Thanks Braceface for your input :D) and do you like how I re-did the blog? Not design or anything.
