Australia Day3

Today is the third day in Albany. Essentially, most of the places we wanted to visit here, had been done. :D

We went to Mount Clarence, because yesterday we couldn't drive up due to some road blockage. This time, it went well, and the weather was pretty cooling, although not really bright skies.
The view from there is indeed spectacular.

After that, we went to Brig Amity, which is a replica of a ship. Not much there, just took some pictures and such.

Then we took a long ride to Denmark, then further up to visit the Valley of the Giants, which is where The Tree Top Walk is. On the way, we detoured to Green Pools, checked out the Elephant Rocks, also dropped by at a honey wine shop and toffee confectionary.

We reached Tree Top Walk around 2pm. Then proceeded to walk within the trees and in the air. :P
In fact, we walked 2 rounds of the tree top walk! Value for money right? haha

This was originally planned to be part of the route on the way to Margaret River. Due to the Easter Holiday which forced us to stay additional night in Albany, we changed the plan to make the tree top walk while we are in Albany.
It's about an hour drive ok! And we have to sort of pass by the place again tomorrow!

By the time we finished the tree top walk, we drove to the Albany Wind Farm again.
I like the wind farm. It's really very nice, and superbly scenic.
Using a word they like to use: Majestic!
Took a lot more pictures of the wind farm today.

Then it was more or less time for dinner. Drove to Middleton Beach area again to take dinner at a place called "Calamari".
Well, the calamari is indeed interesting and pretty nice, the food is equally delicious.
I had salmon, and Karinna took snapper. The fishes seem very fresh. Nice.

Guess we ate too much, too darn full! hehehe

And then it is time to go back and rest, and perhaps play Spot The Difference again later. :P
Everyday can play, because all our accommodations have wireless internet access available for us to use! hehehe
