On the Trail of Swarbricks...
While in Walpole, WA, we came across "Swarbrick Jetty". We went and had a look and found out that there was also a Swarbrick Street! A little more digging and we found a whole book about the Swarbrick family who stayed in Walpole and what they got up to.
The Margaret River area is a beautiful area south of Perth in Western Australia. It's very green and pastoral. There is a huge wine industry here and there are wineries every 250 metres or so. There are also amazing coastlines and beaches all the way around the coast. We have been trying to spot whales off the coast - so far without success.
There's plenty more to talk about - but I'll save that for next time, when I post more pictures. In the meantime, check out the photos bottom right!
