Busselton and Perth


Busselton was the next stop on our trip to catch up with Jen's family.  It was a great spot to base ourselves for a few days to explore the Margret River region.  This part of the blog is light on for pics due to the fact we were far to busy visiting wineries, cheese factories, coffee roasters and chocolatiers.

The "Busso" jetty is the longest wooden jetty in the southern hemisphere.


There are over 100 caves in the South West of WA.  


Lake cave is one of the several caves we visited.



On our way up to Perth we swung into Lake Clifton to see the Thrombolites.  These prehistoric living rocks are believed to be more than 3500 million years old.  


We got to see our first Indian Ocean sunset at Cottesloe Beach, while having fish and chips with the Peet's.

Great spot for dinner.


The Perth cityscape lit up at night.


We caught up with the rellies at Kings Park for lunch on a Sunday afternoon which happened to coincide with the end of Ramadan.  It must be a great place for a picnic because the park was packed.  The kids enjoyed having so many other children to play with on the playground.

The kids loved spending time with their great Aunt and Uncle.


More to come.....
