Esperance is renowned for its fabulous beaches with the purest water and whitest sand. (The sand feels like silk underfoot and squeaks when you walk).

There are some amazing National Parks in the area, notably the Le Grande National Park which is quite magnificent in its size and splendour. The area has a fairly low rain fall but is chock full of wild flowers no matter what time of the year. Being on the south coast it cops strong winds for 11 months of the year.

We visited with our son, his wife and 4 grandsons. They climbed the peaks. I got half way! My husband always makes it to the top despite his 70 decades of life!

Wendy, to double download, click 'Download' in the normal way, then left click on the enlarged image, & it will expand even further. However, it won't work if the original file was too small when posted. I usually post at 2,000 pixels long side, & my pics will always double download. If you post at say, 1,000 pixels, they won't double download. Basically, the larger the files are when posted, the larger will be the downloaded image. :-)
