Surf and wineries…..

Today, we sampled  some of the fine gourmet foods that Western Australia has to offer.

100_2378 We headed out to Busselton Pier to have a look at that.  The pier is the longest in Australia at 1.8klm long.  They also charge you to walk the full length.  So after a couple of days up and down the stairs from the caves, we opted out.

Chris had scallops for lunch and I had a chicken and bacon terrine.  Both of which were very nice.

We finished that with an ice cream cone.

 

We decided to head back to the Margaret River area and see a winery. 

100_2386We were told that the Voyager Estate had a nice garden, so we decided to see that one.  And being the wine connoisseur that I am, I opted for grape juice.  But Chris loves his Merlot, so he chose a nice one.

So we had an early day today.  Col and Margaret headed back into town and we headed back to the van.  Tomorrow is “veg” day.  We’re not planning on “doing” anything.  I think it’s time for that rest day.
