Today's itinenary
- Albany
Being the typical rush rush Singaporeans, we decided to squeeze Albany into one day and proceed back to Perthcity near dusk.
It was to be a very packed day today.
Emupoint
We drove to Emupoint after we checked out of our accomodation. Lots of pelicans and seagulls here, but you 3, as usual, were more interested in the playground. :P
Drove up the Mt Clarence Scenic Drive, stopped by the Dog Rock (Rock that really resembles a dog head with a painted collar around its neck) and then to the Maritime Museum. We didn't go into the Museum. There was this life size ship model anchored right in front of the Museum.
Sunday Fisherman Market
Managed to catch the weekly Sunday Fisherman Market. Papa and San Shu feasted on the fresh oysters here. (yes, oysters at 10am in the morning.....)
You 3 had your fair share of delicious yogurt, yummy pancakes, freshly picked strawberries and hot chocolate. There was also an adult choir performance here today.
Albany Wind Farm
Impressive gigantic windmills here.
The Gap and Natural Bridge
Two natural scenic points, side by side to each other.
At The Gap, there was a big drop in the difference in land level between the rocks we were standing upon and the Ocean.
Gigantic foamy waves down there.
As the name Natural Bridge meant, the rocks were ïn the form of a bridge after many many years of waves hitting against it.
Mummy kept the 3 of you in close proximity least you decided to venture too close to the edge. Even Popo also reminded San Shu not to walk too far out. Haha
Blow Holes
This was a long long walk down to the Blow Holes. Total 0.9km x 2 ways.
YY and NN, you were great. You managed this without any complaint.
DD, you were funny. You imagined that the sand on along the route was animal food and the rocks by the side were kangaroos. You kept feeding "food" to the "kangaroos" as you walked.
Disappointing end though as we didn't manage to see Blow Holes in action. Just loud noises as the big waves splashed against the rocks.
Rocky Hill
Our last scenic stopover at Albany.
We sent San Shu to survey the area first as eveyone was tired with the long long walk at the Blow Holes. Haha.
Not much to see here though.
As the name implies, lots of rocks...
It was time to bid Albany goodbye. We started our 5hr long journey back to Perthcity an hour before the sun start to set.
Hugs & Kisses
Mummy
