Australian South-West Coast and Goldfields

Australian South-West Coast and Goldfields

When hearing Australia you most probably picture a Kangaroo hopping through the hot outback under a blue sky. Hold that thought for a moment. Forget about sunshine, as for the first few days we had rain and cold wind instead. A tropical storm crashed into a South Western cold front and Francien and I scrambled for warm rain coats. We arrived in the middle of it: rain and below 15 C temperatures!!!  The coldest summer in recorded history. Throw in flooded roads and you can get the picture. 
But the story does not end here.
