Dunn Rocks



It was the end of the summer.

The big mission was camp around the fire for 3 nights and 4 days.
It was collecting woods, fishing our dinner, drinking blocks of beers, contemplating the sunset from sand dunes, swimming in the ocean first thing in the morning, and being there.
The only thing that i ve got left is this tremendous feeling of freedom. in my heart and in my mind.
I remember looking at the flames dancing in the bonfire and wondering how it would be like if that was the life i led. it would be a totally different story. because in that world there was nothing else but what i had. and nobody else but those who were part of it.

Esperance

Yesterday afternoon while looking for a place to stay around Esperance, i run into a guy that i had met couple of weeks before at the roadhouse. The 3 of them were passing by the desert and spent one nite in Baladonia and we had a great laugh while i was working at the bar.
So i ended up meeting them in the afternoon for a drink. That then became 2. Then 4. Then couple of games at pool. Then more cans back at the camp site where they were staying and finally went to sleep in their car for the nite.
We all woke up with sore heads but we made it to the closest beach to check out waves..no surfing was involved but we kept staring at the waves..then we moved to the lookout..looking at the beaches around Esperance for another while..(wonderful) and we spent the rest of the afternoon fishing at the pier where I got my first fish!!!!!!!

it was a pure lazy day. but it was fun.
and i moved to the camp site too. i used my tent for the first time since my interail in italy back in 2003 and my arse will be freezing tonite..but its all good!!

nullarbor desert

Back to civilization!!
Not that i couldnt wait for that, but its damn weird!!!
I left the desert behind me this morning, a gas truck was heading south to Esperance and i got in the lift right to town.
The last week has been pretty fun, 4 new people arrived to work there, (3 were irish and my heart sunk) i ve spent most nites working at the bar where all the road workers and truckers ended up and i shared with them few "stubbies", few sigarettes and plenty of dirty jokes..(i could only get the beginning, but i could never really get the end, so i only faked the big laugh..)..i even borrowed one of the guy s car one day and went up and down the high way with the other girls for hours, just pissing ourselves laughing.
It s all over now, back on travelling!
Im in Esperance right now.
Ill be heading towards the coast in the next couple of days..
