Can we (the viewers) get some more international stories - particularly Australia stories? The aboriginal stories here are good. One thing that freaks me out and stops me from bushwalking alone is the story about featherfoots... they are tall spirit beings that eat humans.... just a suggestion and I look forward to watching the next episode! Much love from Belinda
I grew up in a place called Albany in Western Australia, I have since moved to the city but would like to get back out to the country. I like the colder weather and beaches are a must! I love Victoria, I love footy and I absolutely adore Melbourne but I want to live rural. Are there any places that are similair to Albany, Western Australia in terms of geographical beauty and population? Like I want McDonalds, but I never want it to be busy...
EDIT: Thanks for the suggestions everyone, all signs point to Portland I think!
This is a case I've been thinking about doing a write-up of for a while now as I have somewhat of a personal connection to the case. Sorry if my writing isn't up to scratch, and the case does not have as many clues as many others on this sub so please forgive me if it is a little sparse.
One of the major reasons for this write-up is that it's been 2 decades since Peta was last seen and the case has recently been re-opened as a potential homicide case.
On June 22nd,1997, Peta Simone Weber (25) went with her husband, Richard Weber, on an early morning fishing trip at The Gap. The Gap is a popular tourist location in Albany, Western Australia. It is one of the many locations that make up the Torndirrup National Park. The triangle cut in the coastline provides a stunning show of powerful waves crashing against monster, dolerite cliff faces. The incredible natural rock formations draw in many people every year and has recently undergone some renovations to make it a lot easier and safer for tourists to experience the full beauty of these sights.
One of the major upgrades included a viewing platform that overlooked the massive cliffs that make up the gap. The cliffs can reach heights up to about 40m (131ft) above sea level, and the swell below can slam waves into these cliffs with such force that the spray reaches the viewing platform.
Whilst on their fishing trip, Peta was said to have needed to use the bathroom so she decided to go to the public toilet block at approximately 0645. And that was the last time she was seen. The case has been unsolved for 20 years.
Some people have suggested that it was odd she would go to the toilet block in the pitch black, as it wasn't sunrise yet. Sunrise was said to be at 0716 that morning. Nautical twilight was said to be at 0616, thus showing that there would be sufficient light for a person to not need any artificial lighting whilst walking around outside. That is assuming it's a relatively cloudless sky. However, in late June, Albany is usually well settled into winter and often get pretty heavy rainfall. It was likely the conditions on that morning were less than desirable and/or were cloudy thus making it be rather dark out at 0645.
