Since our last post we have been to one of Western Australia's wine regions - the Margaret River. We got there in a hire car -an interesting experience as neither of us have driven an automatic before. What with the automatic gears and the cruise control, it was as if the car was driving itself! The 4 hour journey took us nearer 7 as we stopped off at so many places on the drive down; Bunbury, Bussleton and Cape Neutraliste. After getting to cow-town we spent the next day on a Mountain Biking winery tour (a great way to get around - we went with Becs from dirty detours). It's a great way to get from winery to winery. We even had a group of Kangeroos race past us as they headed away from some burn-off. The largest was a good 8ft tall! That evening we watched the Sunset over thete bay at Gracetown. On our way back to Perth we stopped of in Freemantle - more old and interesting buildings than Perth and great markets (E Shed is worth a visit too). On returning to Perth we met up with Clare's cousin Alison for a Thai dinner - good to catch up with the Oz contingent of the Stones.
