After the desert drive we reached the port town of Esperance. We spent a night in the campground getting laundry done, etc. The next night we went to Cape Le Grand national park, so far the only Australian national park we've been to that doesn't require 4 wheel drive (which we don't have). The beaches here are like a dream. The sand was white as snow, the water a turquoise blue. We went for a snorkel around those rocks you see us standing on. Then played on the beach. When we were leaving the beach Kyra spotted a kangaroo. It hopped through the piles of dried sea grass and then chewed on something for a long time. It didn't seem to mind our presence. Back at the camp area other kangaroos were hanging around the camp kitchen waiting for handouts. Some had joeys with them. When some kids got too close to a mom and joey, the mom took off like a shot and her joey matched her hop for hop, never missing a beat.
