Recent West Australian visit
Tue 26 Jan, 2010 10:13 am
I have recently returned from WA. After attending the national OE Conference at Freemantle I spent a week with my brother visiting a number of locations in the southwest. I only touched the surface of what is available but here is a few pictures of some of the place we visited.

Ahhhhh memories, thanks for sharing Robbo,
The SW has some magic coastline
Did you go to the top of Bluff Knoll? A great walk in winter, as you say pretty taxing in summer months, at least for soft East Coasters
Will upload a video of a trip up The Knoll soon if I can dig it out.
Did you check out the Karri and Tingle forests while in the SW?
It's a pretty BIG place, hard to see many places on a short stay.
I'm going back soon but will be 500km North of there(just a bit Nth of Perth), looking forward to a good swim.
Cheers, sbs
