Around AU in 58 Days: Margaret River.WA

Drove around margaret river. First stop was the Margaret River chocolate factory. Famous for their yummy pastels and other gourmet pieces. I was in chocolate heaven the time i entered the place. They also got free chocolate tasting for all the visitors which was the pastels . My favorite was their white chocolate thats very close to the taste of royce.

 bought a cherry filled piece and it  is really yummy.

Free taste I got some yummy treats:) yay!

Next stop was the Provodore. Famous for their chocolate liquor. but my mom didnt allow me to buy one. Barrells of wine inside and other gourmet spices for cooking and marmalades for bread.

 Right beside the provodore was a mini garden where they grow the plants used for the spices madein the provodore. They called it the kitchen garden.

 Right after the provodore. we went to the Margaret River dairy factory. They had cheese and yoghurt Free taste of different kinds of cheese:) My favorite was the onion and chives cheese flavor perfect with crackers:)

After which we ate Jesters and extra yummy meat pie I got the Ravioli flavored meat pie:)

Last stop was candy cow:) I didnt get anything in this place it was literally all candies inside and i already got much chocolate:) I just love the place because it was oriented with pink details and is very cartoony:) here are some of my photos inside

Headed back to the busselton jetty to get  the snowglobe that i thought over night:) and saw some birds in the park.

Around AU in 58 Days: NgILGI Cave,WA

Also known as the Niangly Cave I would give a two thumbs up for this attraction. For the reason that it is well lighted for a cave and is also developed with flooring and railings which makes it easier for both kids and adults to explore the cave.

 

Inside you will see a variety of Stalctite and Stalagmite formations. In the picture above , it shows the formations in the ceiling of the cave and below that is what they call the music room as it is a dome type area where you can make sounds and it would bounce back from the cave's walls.

 

LIGHTING! very good lighting that they did in this cave. There were areas where the light was changing. Free light show in a cave!:)) This is what our Puerto Princessa Underground River Needs. To figure out how they will put in lighting  to the walls of the river or if impossible provide a giant spotlight with the boats:)

 Right in the middle of the cave you will find a guide that will discuss to you some of the stones you may find inside the cave. One of my favorite was the glow in the dark rock it was so awesome.

Here are some photos of the rock scattered on the table each will be described by the guide when you get there.

This was my favorite spot of the whole cave its on the left side upon entry:) It so pretty so forgive the vanity

Around AU in 58 Days: Busselton, WA

     3rd Day in Australia and we went to visit the Busselton Area. First stop was the Busselton Jetty. One of the Longest Jetty and it has an underwater aquarium at the end but then we werent able to go there cause it was under maintanance. It also has the train ride you can ride to the aquarium. Busselton is a country area its a small town but i love the rodeo-ish ambiance when you get around the town. Old farm ranch designs and logs. So Country style

        
              After the Jetty we went to the Niangly cave but im gonna post that beauty in my next post:)so next is the look outs where we took a few photos. It has a beach view and i actually saw a wind surfer in the area but it was so windy and freezing so i didnt dare to take a dip.and the ambiance is a perfect spot for a family picnic because it has play ground for the kids picnic tables and if it was me having a family picnic there the view is so nice for photoshoots:)

           After which we went to Smith's Beach its one of the famous beaches but then it was winter so itll be freezing. I didnt dare. Plus they told me it was the season of migrating sharks and there where news on shark attacks that time and i didnt wanna sea real life sharks:) so ended up just taking photos and going to Lamonts for a cup of Hot cocoa

       Lamont's Cafe serves really nice hot Chocolate:) Very rich in taste and its perfect for the really cool weather there. Havent tried eating there just strolled around the area and checked out their shops:)

        Went to Mackos after:) and got these Burger thats really huge and its not a big mac:) its yummy though i wish the burgers there are also sold in the Philippines.

and were back to the hotel. Stayed at Wyndham Resorts where i had a relaxing Hot bath at the Tub:)

As for My outfit:)

Top & Pants: Bazaar, Animal Print gloves, Random Store in Baguio, Scarf: Cache cache, Jacket: Borrowed, Shades: Diva, Hat: Diva
