Up today and drive to Esperance (not much to do in Ravensthorpe!)

After we arrived at a nice park on the waterfont we drove around the senic tourist loop of the town and the coast. Lovely views out over the ocean. We also managed a swim at Twilight Beach (apparently the best beach in Australia by public vote). It was a lovely sheltered beach, with pure white sand, so rather nice. Also there was an old rusty van selling icecream and softserve. We thought this will be either really dodgy or really good and old fashioned and luckily was great. I thought it was the best soft serve I have had in years!

Also visited their wind farm which they raved about how much energy they were saving. Bit disappointing though when we read the fine print and all the wind farms that had supplied only 30% of their power, the rest coming from diesel generators in town! I guess anything is a start!
