Can "Y"ou Believe It´s Friday Again?

Esperance, 1999 - I had parked our car, we went into the museum. When we came back we couldn´t believe our eyes - a green Holden Commodore - exactly like the one we had, parked right beside us! No rip in driver´s seat, so not "ours", sadly...

Our car from 1995 was large - from my point of view at least, a station wagon.
The one we had 1999 was, compared to that kinda huge (oh, how I loved that car!).

But on the way to Tom Price I had to find out…actually it´s pretty small after all - have you seen “him”? He´s right behind that “truck”.

No, but really. It´s impressive to stand so close to such a machine, to imagine to drive this thing, a Road Train must be nothing when you think about it, no?

Impressed, we moved on to Millstream-Chichester-Nationalpark.

Somewhere on the way when we decided to go there, I bought a blouse a size bigger than actually needed, and with long arms.
Despite the heat I put it on and people looked at me as if I was crazy.
And they were right, too!

When we visited in 1995 there were heaps and heaps of grasshoppers. Huuuuge grasshoppers. At first Ingo went on the small trail, he flushed them and they jumped at me.
That day I was wearing an old Bundeswehr(Army)-Shirt, which was a bit too large so they jumped on my skin!!! Ewwwww! I felt their little claws grasping me, ewwww!
So, we changed position, I went first-same outcome, they jumped at me and landed on my skin.

This time I was prepared.
But there´d been a fire and maybe it just wasn´t the time for them, who knows, I saw no single grasshopper. But was afraid to take off that bloused- you never know, right?

It was another great visit none the less.The paperbark trees, the flying foxes – and don´t forget the little museum and all the infos you get on the way. There was a tennis-court long ago, the lake where the son went for a swim…

Guess from there we went direction Port Headland. We had to stop, a train was coming –and we couldn´t believe how long it was. I mean, really! Ingo even had lots of time to get his camera and take a video…

It´s just like this sign says:
