Daily diary

Weekend away - Sunday

Next morning we were all up and about by 7.30am. We breakfasted at the resort and stuffed enough to last us all day.

We set off for Augusta, another long, deserted road surrounded by trees ! After 3/4 hour driving we passed a cyclist in the opposite direction - how far was he cycling !!!! We popped a cd on and all sang along until we started to see houses.

Augusta was lovely, I like national parks but coasts are definitely where I feel most at home. August is the most south western point of Aus and two oceans meet (the Southern and Indian) and it was very, very windy. We saw the lighthouse and water wheel and spent a while taking pics and staring in awe.

Then on to Margaret River and another lolly shop and a market. We didn't stop too long as Paul and I had visited before and we have every intention of going back for longer as soon as we can. Next stop Cowarumup (I love it there), the girls (and Paul!) loved the Candy Cow (lolly shop) and Moon Haven (fairy and organic lotions and potions).

The only other stops were the cheese factory, chocolate factory and jam factory and then home.

Another 8 hours travelling and a total of 1,200 kms (and an horrendous cost of over $200) but we had a fabulous weekend and we can't wait to go back.
