Guess what?? We'd almost late for the day tour this morning...was very rushing while reaching Perth City train station, ran all the way to the travel agency coz the bus was about to depart in 1 minute, pretty exciting but was not a good idea to run in chilling weather. I was breathless by the time I jumped up to the bus, kept coughing...Well, managed to settle down after some rest.
This is my last tour in Perth and it was the longest trip I had so far. Departed at 8am from Perth City and returned around 930pm. The first spot that we went was Margaret River, it is known as one of Australia's finest wine regions and also blessed with natural beauty. We stopped half way for morning tea at Jolly Frog Cafe Garden, bought Bacon & Tomato Burger, Blueberry muffins, Chicken Egg sandwich, a cup of flat white(it's coffee with more milk).Then we headed to Xanadu Winery to taste wine, both white & red. Didn't get any this time as I don't really keen in drinking wine, haha!
After that we continued our journey to Eagles Heritage Raptor Centre, at the meantime enjoyed our lunch there. We saw different species of eagles & owls and the PIC there gave us very good & interesting explainations. Next, we headed to Mammoth Cave, one of over 300 natural underground limestone caves in the district. We then travelled south, passed by stunning Boranup Forest, a visual highlight of the region before arriving at Augusta's famous Cape Leeuwin Lighthouse. Some travellers had an afternoon tea there, frankly, the wind is extremely strong and the ocean is simply amazing...deep blue sea and beautiful waves!
Finally, we reached a cafe for a light dinner at the Busselton Jetty, it is known as the longest timber jetty in the southern hemisphere. We had beef steak and fish and chips for dinner. Very delicious & wonderful...I only managed to take 1 photo of Busselton Jetty (coz the memory card of the camera is out of storage, haha!!) Anyway, it was reaching towards the end of the tour...Reached home around 1045pm...
