Rockingham (Penguin Island)
We started very very early to Rockingham. Bought the ticket to Penguin Island. While waiting for the ferry, Ah Wei saw a dog. He smile and suddenly he ran and hugged the dog. The dog and his owner got a shock.
We only managed to see ten (plus one more in the wild) penguins in "Penguin Island". But there are lots of birds, so if you like birds, Penguin Island might be for you.
Mandurah
Vincent told me that its a rich man place and while in town, we have to see where the rich lives. BTW, we have lunch at Cicerello's... the fish & chip was only okay to us.
Busselton
Busselton is famous for its 2km longest timber jetty in the Southern Hemisphere. But we were quite disappointed as they are closed for repaired unit mid or late 2010.
The jetty
Margaret River
After wine tours in Burgundy, Napa & Sonama Valleys, even the ice wine tour in Niagara regions. Alas, we are not even interested. Thus, after failing to locate the milk candy factory in Cowaraup, we just passed by Margaret River to Augusta.
Augusta
This is where the Indian and Southern Oceans meet. The best place to view is at Cape Leeuwin. The lighthouse is already closed when we reached the place.
We continued on to Pemberton. Its closed to 7:30pm when we reached Pemberton. The air was chilling and the surrounding peaceful with all the tall Karri trees. I really like it here. There were lots of nice place to stay with forest or river views, most of them with a fire place which I really like personally, but with "Itchy hand" Ah Wei around, I will think twice. I do not want him to hurt himself, either do I want him to burnt down the whole house. We settled with Best Western in town.
