Margaret River
We started planning for this trip with the idea that we'll take it easy, won't rush from 1 place to another, and that it'll be a chill and relax holiday. And almost everyday, Uncle Mel would say something about just going to 1 or 2 places, and then come back to the apartment to rest. That never happened. We were always out the entire day and since the kids seemed to enjoy themselves so much, we didn't have the heart to drag them 'home'.
River Mouth. Check out the clear blue sky!
It was low tide and the waves were already super strong! Can't imagine how it'll be like during high tide!
Hot chocolate at the Margaret River Chocolate Factory - the real thing - made with real chocolate and not chocolate powder. It was super rich and yummy! Besides the 2 marshmellows, Daddy also gave Nadine way too much chocolate (they had a huge bowl of samples for visitors to try) at the factory. As a result, Nadine did not sleep at all that afternoon, and was ultra hyperactive throughout. By evening, Mummy was super tired, and extremely annoyed at Daddy.
Lunch at the Bootleg Brewery.
The brewery owns a cattle ranch as well and their beef is excellent. The last time we were there, it was winter. We had the beef cheeks, which were soooooo tender, sweet and juicy. We were disappointed that their summer menu does not have the beef cheeks. Still, this was one of the best meals the group's had during this trip!
Nadine had her first sip of shandy, and didn't quite like it.
Cape Leeuwin Lighthouse - located at the most south westerly tip of Australia, standing at the point where the Indian and Southern Oceans meet. We could actually see that the currents for the 2 oceans were moving in opposite direction!
