Peaceful Bay {Lawn Squatting}

After all this time you would think we would have some idea on when public holidays are in WA?  Apparently NOT! We planned to leave Windy on Friday and had it not been for a wonderful woman there asking me, we would have forgotten it was a public holiday and been stuck no doubt as we planned to do some free camping after leaving.

Thankfully after a quick, cheeky SMS to a friend we landed a lovely spot on the front lawn of his holiday house in Peaceful Bay.  It was peaceful when we arrived just after lunch but by 8pm all of the surrounding houses {alright most} had people and there where cars everywhere.  The caravan park was PACKED.

It worked well for us, we had power, a shady spot and got to do some real exploring that we missed out on doing in November {because we spent so much time eating, talking & drinking}.

We went down the the river mouth a few times, took a drive though Denmark looking at a few different spots and much to J's pleasure we even did some 4WDing in Peaceful Bay {although it didn't go so well to start when we discovered our wonderful tyre gauge was lying about our pressure, cue embarrassed husband when he got stuck and caused a traffic jam}.

Everyone cleared out on the Monday so we got to spend a day in a truly peaceful Peaceful Bay before we packed up and headed to our next spot, a real free camp.
