I drove to Bunbury today after Chris and I spent three nights at the 600 acre sheep farm which is situated on the outskirts of Margaret River - about 10km.
With the school holidays there were lots of
people camping, but with everyone spread out it didn’t feel crowded. It was such a pretty place with sheep
grazing in the paddocks.
On Saturday we went to the farmers market in Margaret River, but it was too crowded so we didn’t stay long. We wandered along the main street and looked at the shops then sat at an outdoor café and enjoyed a hot chocolate while watching the world go by. This part of WA is very pretty to drive through with the beautiful karri forests and all the wineries.
Pumpkin Carving at farmers' market:
Chris is still at Margaret River where she has Rolly (her dog) booked in for a clip, but I had to drive up to Bunbury today because my van is booked in for some repairs tomorrow morning. Unfortunately the water pump started to play up a few days ago and I have recently noticed a small amount of water seeping out onto the floor after using the shower. Fortunately the van is still under warranty.
My stove is still playing up even though it was supposedly repaired a few weeks ago, so when the water problem has been fixed, I will deal with the stove when we reach Perth. It is very frustrating when these things happen, but luckily we were intending to spend a few weeks in Perth while Chris catches up with family. Her son lives in Perth and he has offered us the use of his car so we can spend time sightseeing.
