Road trip.. World Earth Day, walking among the giants.

 

Today's post is a little out of context as it's the last stop before we made tracks for home but as it is World Earth Day today what better way to celebrate than with trees, trees, glorious trees. This was actually the highlight of the trip for me, walking amongst the towering karri trees that surround Pemberton, 327km south of Perth is intoxicating. There are five National Parks within a 20 minute drive so you can imagine how wonderfully oxygenated the air is. Pemberton is a tourist attraction for many reasons, see HERE, but for me it's all about those magnificent trees. Back to Margaret River tomorrow :) Happy Earth Day, take care and stay safe..

  10. Gentle Giants. Earth Day should be every day, Grace... I think "Corinna" helps a lot here. My T works from home since a year, no more useless driving (you can do IT from home, right? That´s what I wanted 16 years and Corinna made it do... for him).
    Road trips certainly need a car 😁🧡 Not useless at all!
