WA Southwest

In Albany, south of WA, one of the main attractions is whale world, an old whaling station
that is the skeleton of a pigmy blue whale. As you may know, blue whales are the biggest creatures on earth and that have ever lived. Because it is a pigmy blue whale, it is smaller than a real blue whale ( and the camera does not quite show how big it is) so a blue whale is much bigger. WOW!!!!!!!!!

Blueberry picking is hard work but fun.

You don't want to pick a berry red or it will be sour.

At Greens pool / Elephant rocks the water was crystal clear and great for snorkelling.

The water was cold but very refreshing.
Near a place called Pemberton was a tree top walk. I was short and easy with a great view.

We are standing under a species of eucalyptus called red tingle which grow's only around
the Pemberton area. The big hollow hole in the tree is caused by fungal disease, bush fires, insect invasion e.t.c.

This is at the top of the Dave Evens Bycenteniel tree.
It is a tree which used to be used for fire spotting and now is an adventurous tourist attraction.

It was a little creepy because if you slipped, you fell and would die.



In Yallingyup, 3hrs from Perth, my sister and I did a wooden maze. It was hard because we did not know about some secret doors. Keep reading my blog because in a few week, I will do a hedge-hend maze.
