After spending just over a week in Perth with family or friends, we set off again yesterday for the South West region. The rain has been pretty persistant and aside from a couple of clear days hung around most of our time in Perth! We did get a lovely day to visit Rottnest Island however, over on the ferry and a day on the hop on hop off bus, and also a few sunny hours in Kings Park for lunch and a walk through the gardens, so lucky on that front.
We are now staying in Busselton for 6 nights in accommodation rather than camping to see out some of the remaining winter.
Aside from the obvious food and wine opportunities in the nearby Margaret River region, their are many scenic spots to expore with the cameras. Today we went down to the famous Busselton Jetty and walked down to the end, the underwater observatory unfortunately not open for business during the winter months but the impending rain clouds made for some nice moody skies.
