How long in WA? And where will you be stopping off?

Haven't seen the movie, I would hope both tourists and migrants
take this useful information to heart.

Aussie's are a very tolerant mob, but there are limits, after
all!

There are a lot of Yanks in Oz, and a lot of Aussie's in the USA.
.....I would tend to think that the Aussie's might have more
trouble adjusting to the U.S. culture.

It would be interesting to hear of some of their experiences, or
even Australian tourists experiences there.

Cheers,

Good to see you will be going down to Denmark.
If you travel via the Margaret River area and you wish to see something
there (worth it!) then on to Denmark via Pemberton (a few reasonable size
trees there - climb the Gloucester Tree or the Centennial Tree) and thence
to Albany (brilliant coastal scenery - I used to live there) and Esperance
on the way to the Nullarbor, then you will need more than just a couple of
days.
BTW I live close to Roleystone but can't stand Indian.

Anyway, have a good one!
