Perth to Yanchep

Day 5 – July 24, 2014 – Perth to Yanchep - distance travelled:  123 kms - 21^oC high; 9^oC low.  Time to leave our Perth cabin.  Packed all our stuff into our Troopy, and amazingly enough everything fit inside so no need to put anything on the roof.  Ran some errands picking up a few things needed for camping (proper table for six, little side table (borrowed one last time we were in Australia; very handy), griddle for on top of stove), dropped off the table given to us by the rental place and got a few little things fixed on the vehicle and then spent a few hours exploring the pedestrian malls of downtown Perth.  After that headed north, and, as it was getting dark and camping at the Yanchep “resort” (the only caravan park in town) was $10 per person we figured we might as well have one more night of luxury in a chalet for a little more.  As it turned out, the chalet was rather old, not very luxurious, cob webs and spiders everywhere (kids not happy), came with a small inefficient heater; well, you get the picture.  However, when we came out of the grocery store after a grocery run it was absolutely pouring so we were happy to have a solid roof.
