The Southwest, October 28.

We saw the climbing tree near Manjimup. The steps are so far apart that you culd easily fall through if you slipped. I decided to give it a miss. We went on to Walpole and did the treetop walk through the giant Red & Yellow Tingle trees. These trees are unique to SW Australia. On our way back we drove through the forest for several hundred Km to Cape Leuwin, the point where you have the South Atlantic Ocean on the south side of the headland and the Indian Ocean on the West side. We had hoped for a spectacular sunset but the clouds rolled in. We had supper in Margaret River which right in the middle of the SW Australian wine district. It turned out to a BYO (bring your own bottle) and we did not have any but the food was good.
