Western Australia

The sea at Esperence was amazingly wild - a photo cannot capture what you see.Here we went down 180 steps to the beach


We"chanced" upon this windmill which was built as an exact replica of a dutch mill,out in the countryside.It is a working mill used to grind wheat and they have moved a railway station onto the property to be used as a restaurant.We stayed for coffee and dutch apple-cake,and had a chat with the chef.


There is rainforest in the southwest corner of Australia. They have constructed a treetop walk - a bridge which swings when people rock it or in the wind.It's up about 40 metres


This tree is thought to be 400years old. It has survived several bushfires. We were suitably impressed

Ik hen al die foto's nog eens in het heel groot bekeken. Schitterend, allemachtig prachtig zijn ze. Dat er nog maar vele mogen volgen.
