Perth to Margaret River

Up at 7.30am, money in meter at 8am. Breakfast downstairs. More money in meter at 9am, walk to Swan Bells. Still closed. Back to car and drive to King's Park. I particularly love the 28 (ringneck) parrots - bright green with black heads and yellow rings around their neck. They also have brilliant blue on their wings.

The park is big and very green, with a good view of the city. After a wander, we went back to the Swan Bells after 10am. Got to ring one - awesome - C# major scale.

I drove from the bells - short stop in Dawesville. Downpour just before Bunbury. Lunch in Bunbury (3pm).

Arrived in Margaret River at 5ish. Walk to beach to see sunset, got blown away (fun). Drive into town for dinner at the Margaret River Hotel.
