Albany

We planned a weekend holiday down to Albany. It's 409KM from Perth via Albany Highway. We were in 2 cars - Subaru Forester and Totoya Aurion. It was about 4.5 - 5 hours drive. We departed at about 8.30am arrived Albany for late lunch.

Well, we were at at 117KM/h at a 110KM/h zone and was pulled over by police. Wow.... We got warned as traffic was heavy. phew... That's an experience. :p

Had late lunch after checking into hotel, a family style with 2 rooms at All Season and get more information from the Information counter.

We took the rest of the day easy by just going to Middleton Beach. We stopped at a lookout area just to enjoy ourselves.

A lot of seashells on the beach. I was on shoes and decided to take them off to walk on bare foot. The sand is so fine and so soft. Children were busy picking up seashells.

The water was so clear and it wasn't that cold. The whole place reminds me of Seatoun, Wellington, NZ where I stayed for 1 year. It's really nice there.

And we walked on the bridge where it is actually famous for wedding couple to take their wedding picture which we actually saw a couple.

Thereafter we went back to rest and called it a day.
