On September 11, Jonathan, Charles, Majella and I embarked on a 2 night road trip down to the South-West region of Western Australia. Our first stop was in Ferguson Valley, in which we visited Gnomesville. Gnomesville is an area in Ferguson Valley where a vast collection (over 1000) gnomes are placed off a corner from the main road. The area attracts many tourists and many uniquely arranged gnomes.

After Gnomesville we continued our travel towards Busselton for lunch. Along the way we travelled through the small city of Bunbury for a scenic car drive. When we arrived in Busselton, we stopped by at the jetty to enjoy some local fish and chips. After lunch we all went for a short walk towards the jetty and had a look at some of the souvenirs they had available.

After Busselton, we drove over towards Dunsbrough, where our accommodation was. We stayed at the Dunsbrough Beach Cottages. The cottages were exceptionally comfortable, and had all amenities to ensure a quality stay for our holiday. We only ventured towards the Coles in Dunsbrough to purchase dinner supplies for the evening, and to the beach front that was only 100 m away from our front door. We made home made dinner, for the first night.

On the second day we drove towards Jewel Caves in Margaret River, our first stop. After the caves we continued driving towards Augusta and Cape Leeuwin Light house. The light house was our second destination for the day. After the light house we stopped over at Augusta for some lunch at Tasty Chicken.

Once lunch was finished we made our way back towards Margaret River where we stopped by a few wineries along the way. We came back to accommodation just after sunset, and we prepared home made BBQ for dinner.

On the last day, we left our accommodation and Dunsbrough at around 10am. We stopped by in Bunbury at around 11:30am for lunch at McDonalds. After lunch we continued back up towards Perth, arriving back at around 1:30pm.
