NEWS LETTER

 

AUGUST 2019

 

Western Australia Now and Then

 

Sunset

Welcome to the only newsletter (so far) for 2019

 

Tamala Station

The Big One


Finally after 8 months of planning and hard work we got away on the much anticipated 'bucket list' trip to Tamala Station at Shark Bay.

All the details of the trip can be found in our trip blogs section or you can see the videos we made while we were there on our YouTube channel.

Cohunu Koala Park

A Quiet Year


The Tamala trip cost so much to organise and took so long to prepare for, that we have done little else so far in 2019, which accounts for the lack of newsletters until now.

One attraction we did manage to get out and see was the Cohunu Koala Park at Byford.

We made a video about the park but at the time of writing this newsletter, it hasn't yet been posted to our YouTube channel. Both the video and a page about the park will be available here in coming weeks.

We noted some rather harsh reviews about Cohunu on the Internet but we enjoyed our visit and didn't think the criticism was warranted.

Perhaps there has been a lot of work done since the online reviews were written.

West Australian Folklore

W.A. Folklore


We have been collecting Western Australian folklore for a long time now and we are trying to raise the profile of the topic in order to find more stories.

The stories we have collected are available on one of our Facebook pages or you can purchase a PDF copy to keep on your computer or smart device.

A new Folklore page has now been added to our main website and we are working on a video series for our YouTube channel and this will become an ongoing project.

If you know any great folklore stories about Western Australia, why not send us the details so we can share it with everyone? Just click the EMAIL US button at the top of any of our website's main pages.
