Dunsborough down south

We have just spent a few glorious days down south in Dunsborough.  We rented a holiday house 1km out of the town on a small holding.  Beautiful bushland surrounded our house and the local kangaroos visited frequently!  They would appear from nowhere bouncing past our back door and then stop to watch us from about 20 metres away. 

The boys thought this was really special as the roos were totally wild and living in the bushland. 




Most of our days were spent on Meelup Beach, swimming, relaxing and playing in the sand.   We visited Moses Rock and Yallingup as well and enjoyed browsing the beach town's shops and eating in quaint places with our friends, the Zwitsers. 

Yallingup is great for big surf and boogie boards and all three boys are really getting into the fun of it.

The beaches are all pristine with squeaky sand and clear turquoise water.  There are beaches that remind us of Noordhoek and others that could be in Mauritius.  It was just all so beautiful and relaxing.



Today was back to normal for Rob, at least, who had to head into the city in a suit.  The rest of us tackled the housework, laundry and shopping and are now ready to enjoy another week of school holidays in Perth.
