Western Australia Trip Day 1

After months of planning and researching, we finally flew to WA on 28 Oct 2011 @ 11.50pm.

When we reached Perth Int. Airport at 5.25am, it was freezing cold but the sky was already bright. We passed thru the check point without any hassle, in fact they were so friendly. Straight away we went to collect our pre-booked car at Redspot Budget Car Rental after we had a quick breakfast.  It was an Hyundai Elantra and it's comfortable enough for 4 of us.

We also rented a GPS, AKA Tom Tom to help with the navigation.

With tom's help, pa drove towards Albany Highway easily.

Beautiful farm along the way.

 We stopped at Kojonup for some bakery and milk. It was very small but clean and neat.

 

 After about 400 kms of this:-

    We were at Albany at last. Mi and I were very excited. The weather was cold and windy.

 

We then adjourned to our first itinerary, the Torndirrup National Park where we found the Natural Bridge and the Gap. Were greeted with massive rock formation by the sea.

The Natural Bridge. Look how small the peaple appeared on the bridge.

   

The Gap which is a narrow gap which plunges 25 meters into the sea. Really impressive.

 Next we drove to Denmark where our first night accommodation located. Before we check in, we visited Pentland Alpaca Farm.

These are Alpacas. They are very calm and gentle and very fluffy to the touch. They are from South America and breed for the fibre. I really had a nice time with them.

I had the chance to cuddle the calf and feeding them. It was really fun.

Then we proceed to Sensational Heights Bed and Breakfast.

It's a very beautiful B&B with great lawns and views.

We had a family room.

5 star wash room.

The owner's handsome dog. So friendly and cute. It was fun running with him under clear blue sky and on green grass. I missed hugging him.

The town of Denmark.
