Our first night of our leopard hunt!

Fremantle to Toapin Weir.

We were not expecting to find a leopard here, as it is not the right environment, but we were thrilled to spot 2 kangaroos, 1 shy fox, and three inquisitive bunnies!

Even though we left home in Fremantle much later than planned, we eagerly decided to hit the road anyway!

Our first stop is Toapin Weir where we camped right next to the weir's wall and eagerly anticipating our exploration tomorrow.

We have one month to travel to Queensland, hunt and bag a Leopard and return to Fremantle.

This is our first leg of our Voyage of Discovery as we uncover some of Australia's hidden gems on our road trip that we have called our Leopard Hunt in search of our new home at sea.

Our Leopard Hunt began as we packed up the swag, the BBQ, some clothes, and our adventurous dogs, Tillie & Chase, and set off to Queensland in search of a Leopard 48.

We were awestruck by breathtaking cliffs, pristine beaches, rugged tracks, and massive rocks, all teeming with diverse wildlife. Discover hidden coves, charming towns, and cozy campsites along the way.

No visit to Australia is truly complete without driving into the spirit of the outback!

The beginning of our voyage of a lifetime hinges on the outcome of our thrilling Leopard Hunt!
