Western Australia Day 2

We had a very hearty breakfast prepared by the host, Kerri. She even checked with us about food preference when we checked in the day before. We were first served with yogurt with some fruits, follow by the main dish of egg, beacon and sausage with fresh wild mushroom. There were toast and fruit juice and tea/coffee and honey.
The table was arranged with details and with a personal touch. Mmmm, yummy.....

Planning the day's itinerary.

Saying goodbye to this wonderful place and missing the dog so much.

 We kicked start our day with a short visit to the Greens Pool with amazing colour.

Then we went to the much acclaimed Valley of the Giants. The giants here are referring to the enormous tingle trees. While we walked on the wobbling but solidly constructed steel walkway, we were so high up it was like walking on the tree top.

The Tree Top Walk soars 40 meters into the Tingle canopy.

Incredible hollow trees.



Hello, Grandma!

After close-encounter with the ancient giant trees, we then stopped at Walpole to have some bites on the local bread which is not something we like.  We continued our journey to Augusta where we would check into Augusta Motel. Luckily we were in time for the Cape Leeuwin Lighthouse. It's situated on the south west tip of Australia continent. That's why the wind was extremely strong it made walking against it a challenge.

Blissful landscape!
We then checked into our hotel and pa "tapau" fish and chips for dinner. At night we watched our photos before we retired in our family room.
