20^th December 2016 (Tuesday) – Hope Island to Perth

In total we had driven 2424 km (1515 miles) since leaving Melbourne and 2975km (1734 miles), including the Northern Territory trip between Darwin and Jabiru and around Kakadu National Park.    

The following morning we finished our packing and headed to Brisbane Airport to catch a plane to Perth.

The flight was fine, although noisy.  I tried out the Qantas app that allows one to watch a film via wifi on one’s own tablet.  The picture was of a better quality than normal but the sound was diabolical. Definitely need noise cancelling head phones for Christmas/birthday if anyone is reading this blog!

Once we had landed we collected our luggage and picked up a hire car. Phil arrived and guided us back to their new pad in North Coogee, just south of Fremantle. In the evening we went for a stroll along the beach up towards Fremantle Harbour, had a drink and then headed back.
