Augusta to Hopetoun September 2011 Part 1

What a week we picked to start out and we had our first blow out on the van..the thrashing remnants ate our plumbing...we headed straight for Augusta and for the most part it was wet and windy, luckily when we had the blow out it was dry.We did get out to the Leeuwin Lighthouse just as the place was shutting..did you notice the dancing cow in the foreground?
We stayed at the Turner Caravan Park, one of our neighbours having breakfast, a young Pacific Gull.

Whilst in Augusta it was Fathers Day so off we went to Hamelin Bay Winery for lunch. Here we met a lovely family who on talking imparted that they came from Albany. Gordon was into flowers and Maree into birds. We exchanged numbers with a hope that we could get together later.
We drove further along the coast line and got a totally different perspective of the Lighthouse, where the Southern and Indian Oceans meet.
