Margaret River and Busselton

We stayed a total of 3 nights in Margaret River. There is a lot to see in this area.
The first day here we traveled up to Busselton where the jetty is 2km long, we took the train out to the end and back, its takes around 15-20mins each way and we all had abit of fun. From Busselton we started heading back down the coast and stopped in at Bunker Bay and the lighthouse where we did a 2km walk around the point of the lighthouse. We than went into Canal Rocks abit further down the coast, the ocean was getting quite rough so the waves were smashing up in against the canal, we found a spot to sit and stayed to watch the waves for awhile, it was very relaxing.
The second day we spent going around the wineries and boutiques, we went to the fudge factory, cheese company and the chocolate factory (a huge shop with ALOT of chocolate), we also visited alittle mudbrick chapel filled with artworks, the lady there was very sweet and could of talked to us all day, Trev fixed her computer so she was extremely happy and gave us some of her artwork cards as a thankyou. Her artworks are very good and she has illustrated many books.
We finished the day by driving out to Pravelly beach to watch the sun set over the ocean, it was very windy, as is had been all day with 52km wind gusts.
