Margaret River and Augusta

After Albany we headed to Margaret River and Augusta.

This is such a beautiful place. It is so green compared to a lot of the other areas we have  travelled through so far.

We visited Hamelin Bay, Augusta and Cape Leeuwin, and its wonderful lighthouse, today. Beautiful places but it did rain quite heavily which made it a little difficult for us to do what we had planned. We wanted to do part of the Cape to Cape walk but it was too wet and blowy to do that.

We took Whimsy touring again as it allows us to stop and start as we please with food on board when required.

We pulled into Boranup Café for fresh scones - its off the beaten track - but was recommended to us by a local. Great scones and lovely spot in amongst the trees. Then we went to Augusta and the Cape Leeuwen Lighthouse. Jayne and I took the Lighthouse tour. Jane wished she hadn't. Poor baby remembered a little too late that she hates heights! However she did make it up and down .... just.

Heading toward Perth tomorrow with a free-camp stop tomorrow night and then two nights in Perth itself.
