Join us - Mark, Penny, Fleur and Ellie - as we plan to take some time in the slow lane and circumnavigate Australia in our Larry the Landcruiser and Carrie the Caravan. This blog will hopefully serve as a diary of our trip as well as a means of keeping our family and friends up to date with our travels. We hope you enjoy the ride with us!

Our Helicopter Trip

Fleur and Ellie's helicopter adventure. At the Purnululu National Park in Western Australia we went in a helicopter over the Bungle Bungles.

 Our Helicopter as it came in to land to pick us up.
Ellie and I sat in the back with Dad, Mum sat in the front with the pilot to take all the photos. We had to sit where the pilot said to balance the helicopter.   
 There were no doors but we had a seat belt. The pilot said that due to the way the helicopter works we would be pushed down into our seats. He also said that no one had ever fallen out. Even so it was scary at first but after a minute I was no longer scared. 
 Ellie had to sit on my seat because there was only 4 seats including the pilots seat.
 Look no hands!
 Back safetly on land after our fabulous flight.
Love Fleur xx
