Wow! This is the view from our picnic lunch site on the way to Margaret River. I can't remember if we were outside Bunbury or Bustleton but it was all gorgeous. One of the best things about Australia is their parks. They have done a great job of not overdeveloping beach areas. Of course, with only 22 million people in a country the size of the U.S., it's a bit easier to keep natural areas pristine.
Sherri fixed us homemade chicken salad sandwiches and guacamole. Does it get any better than this? Yes - we also had Anzac biscuits (oatmeal coconut cookies) and brownies.
This is an emu in the distance. There was one running right beside the car on my side on one of our little detours but I wasn't fast enough to catch a shot of it up close. Darn!
Paul and Sherri bought a new Holden Jackeroo, an Australian brand SUV, so they can go 4-wheeling safely so we went off-road occasionally. No more Britz rentals! It has a device on it called a Roo-Shoo that's supposed emit a high-pitched sound to keep kangaroos away. They're common road kill here.
Paul is standing next to the 10-foot dam as we call it. We were looking for a 10-kilometer dam but took the wrong route. We had a lovely hike anyway so it was all good.
Here is the sign by the car park entrance with an arrow saying Walk to the Dam. We're just too busy gawking at the scenery to be bothered with such petty details.
A sweet photo of Sherri and Paul - they are just way too cute together!
