Derby WA. 23.8.12

Telecommunications at last so we could talk to family! 

We have been here four nights in this neat little town and the blokes (and girls sometimes) have been crabbing off the wharf. Last night we feasted on the bounty of sweet mud crabs. Delicious!

The tidal variation is up to 11 metres which is enormous, so you imagine how far down the crab traps had to be lowered... not to mention how many escaped before we could get them up!!!

We are constantly amazed by the variety of camping solutions that are on the road...from one person swags to mega buses hauling separate cars and/or boats. We also note that the busiest place in a c'van park is the laundry. There are lots of young o/s people and quite a few families with very young children. People are very relaxed and friendly and ready to swap information on where they have been, road conditions and other useful ideas.
