15/04/2019 We left Margaret River with no real agenda, we thought we would pop in and have a look at the sea side sites as they come along, see what happens, and decide where to sleep when the day nears the end. Well as it turned out this was a perfect plan and executed just […]

13/04/2019 We arrived into Margaret river in the afternoon, had a short walk around town, bought some supplies, went out to Surfers Beach to watch the sunset, after sunset we parked up in a sneaky little spot in the industrial area for a great nights sleep. The next morning we decided to head back to […]

12/04/2019 As we do quite often we stayed out-of-town the night before at a free camp, woke up reasonably early and parked close to the ocean (and toilet) to have breaky. This morning we find ourselves at little cove beach with lot of local retired people, mainly in their 70’s towards 80’s out for their […]

11/04/2019 We did a bit more driving today than what we have been doing over the last few days (approx 150kms) but considering that we both have some aching muscles from yesterday, and the drizzling rain, we were both happy with that. We did still get out and do a bit of exploring in the […]

10/04/2019 When we were at Mooloolaba for Xmas last year the lady (we forgot her name) camped beside us shared how she continued to regret that she never climbed the Bicentennial Tree. It didn’t mean much at the time but today here we are standing in front of the Bicentennial Tree. This tree is one […]

09/04/2019 We decided to do the short 30km detour from the Main road and check out Windy Harbour. There really isn’t much here except for a heap of Coastal Cabins, a caravan park, spectacular coast views and apparently the fishing is sensational. Mmmm, perhaps it has everything for certain people! If only we fished. We […]

08/04/2019 We stopped at Crystal Springs for lunch, it is a lovely wooded area with grass, fire pits and no fire restrictions. After a long relaxing lunch we decided to stay for the night. We had a great fire with Peter & Caroline.

07/04/2019 We just couldn’t believe the size of these Tingle Trees, just enormous, they can grow up to 75 meters high. We didn’t do the skywalk as it costs $21 p/p and from what we had been told is not that much different to doing the walk around the grounds. The whole place is really […]

07/04/2019 As we continue west, we stopped at Denmark to do some research and have some brunch, on our walk around we got a really good feeling of the town, we chatted with a few locals and it seems like a nice quite laid back and casual sort of place. However today is Sunday, so […]

04/04/2019 The weather had been pretty crappy all day, windy, drizzly rain with the occasional decent downpour. Sue from the info centre had encouraged us to take the 30 minute drive out of town to visit this ‘Little Beach’. Just as we got closer the weather cleared, the sun came out and allowed us to […]
