Margaret River trip

Big Day Out Wine Tour!
We went to three wineries, one brewery, one spirits factory, chocolate factory and cheese factory.


Lakes Cave
 Megan and Andrew joined us at the Lakes cave. First you had to walk down a huge flight of stairs into the gully where the cave was. The cave used to be where we were but it collapsed, leaving a big crater. At the bottom is the entrance to the cave which has a lake and stalactites so big they hang from the roof, just touching the water.



Amazin!
We went to this maze park. It had a big hedge maze which we raced through. This is a stepping stone puzzle. The boys are trying to work out how to get from the start to the middle following the pattern white, red, black.There was also a turning left maze, bowls and quoits!

  Gloucester tree, Pemberton
Yes, we conquered this 60 meter high beast, revealing to all my fearlessness, strength and courage! Not! One tiny baby step at a time I inched myself up. It is sooo high! The view from the top was amazing and it felt like such an achievement to get to the top. When I finally got down it was so good to lie on the ground, and my legs and arms were like jelly!

Rottnest Island

I took Brent to Rottnest Island for his birthday. We took our own bikes and rode the whole way around the island. Unfortunately half way round the seat fell off one of the bikes! It was a long ride to the finish...

Esperance


Welcome to Esperance! Esperance is the most beautiful town in the world. I have done a fair amount of travelling in my time, and I can honestly say that Esperance has some of the most beautiful, clear, blue, uncrowded beaches in the world, and I'm not just saying that because its my home town!
