Margaret River

Here we are at Margaret River. The photo is of what we can see from our deck at our townhouse at Margaret River.

We left Perth this morning around 4 hours north of here in heavy rain. Around an hour later the rain cleared and the sun came out making for a pleasant drive.

We arrived at Margaret River just after 1pm only to learn our room would be ready shortly. So off to the pub we went. They have their own breweries here so 2 pints of the local product and a pint of cider made a hole in $30. Expensive drinking.

Our room was ready so back we went to move in. Our 2 bedroom town house on the main drag was just perfect and the price reflected it.  There was free WiFi but it was touch n go to connect. My tablet connected OK but Trish's tablet wouldn't. Her browser kept on telling her the connection was unsafe and it just wouldn't connect.

We have plenty to drink and nibble on. The footy is on TV and we have settled in.

There is so much to do here, great beaches, heaps of wineries, an interesting main street to explore, caves and wonderful scenery. All we need is sunny weather. Unfortunately the forecast does not look too positive right now.

And our accommodation looks first class.
