DAY 7;8th Dec-DENMARK TO ALBANY-Part 1

Alhamdulillah...kita sambung episode sebelum ni...masih di Rest Point Holiday Park.
Sekitar campsite...

Ada activity Canoeing di sini....




As usual bangun pagi dan explore the site...ada banyak trekking path dan ..terserempak dengan  wild kangaroo...datang ke campsite.....






Kami  checked out jam 6.30 pagi.Ikut itinerary,sepatutnya kami pegi ke Walpole Wilderness National Park to experience Valley of the Giants Tree Top Walk.Tapi,disebabkan kami dah merasa tree top walk at Kings Park on our 1st day in Perth dan memanjat diamond tree di Pamberton,maka kami lupakan plan ni...dan plan ke Denmark Animal Farm & Pentland Alpaca Stud instead.

6.55 am-few snaps opposite  Top Tree Walk junction...



Kami tiba di William Bay National Park jam 7.45 pagi.Singgah di Green Pool untuk mandi-manda & main2 air..


Dari parking lot...turun tangga ke Green Pool


What a view!!
Pantainya putih bersih & landai ... sesuai untuk mandi-manda

Few gondolan batu (boulders) yg jadi pelindung dari ombak besar Great Ocean
See...tenang je lautnya

Fefeeling ala-ala Maldives gitu..
Actually the colour is green turquoise...jernih..sesuai untuk snorkeling jugak
Selesai mandi-manda di Green Pool,boleh tukar baju kat toilet (di car park area).Tapi,takde shower room untuk membilas badan,So,bilas dalam motorhome je lah.
Patutlah nampak ramai Mat Salleh bawak botol-botol besar..diorang bilas kat pantai je.

Few hundreds metres to the east of Green Pool...jumpa Elephant Rocks (boleh menapak saja..tak jauh).Actually Green Pool dan Elephant Rocks ni sebelah-menyebelah! 


Trek menuju ke Elephant Rock
Ada 2 anak tangga ke 2 tempat berbeza
View of Great Ocean at William Bay National Park


Tu diaaa....Gajah-gajah yg disumpah dek Sang Kelembai.

Elephant Rocks....the amazing natural boulders shaped like elephants

Kena turun tangga ni...untuk ke Elephant Cove
Then lalu kat celah-celah batu...Awas...
Cepat!Sebelum ombak datang...

Then...amazing views of Elephant Cove!
Bercanda di pasiran pantai...hu hu
 
Check out the boulderbehind..
It's a hidden (well known) gem here..
Time to move..


Destinasi seterusnya...Denmark Animal Farm & Pentland Alpaca Stud yang terletak 14 km je dari William Bay National Park..Actually locals prefer this farm,berbanding dengan Caversham Wildlife Park.Pentland is more laid back farm,run by family.Caversham is more touristy...


The entrance..
Tiket AUD14 for adults & AUD7 for kids (separuh dari Caversham).AUD45 untuk pakej 2 adults & 2-3 kids
Inclusive 6 packs of food pallets

Our 1st encounter...with James The Kaola!


Pemalu?Malas nak layan?
Kaola ni tidur 20 jam sehari...


Our 1st friendly hosts
Then,kita gi tengok alpaca pulak..the main attraction here


Alpaca gebu vs Alpaca togel (yg dah diketam)
Memang manja alpaca nih..
Nasib baik binatang ni jinak!

Alpaca ni diimport dari South America.....rupanya macam small Ilama

Tak sah datang Australia...tak jumpa kangaroo,kan?

Kangaroo ni memang mengekor je nak makanan..



Camel pun ada
Sekitar kawasan farm yang luas...memang best lah sebab boleh pet & fed macam-macam binatang kat sini

Donkey couple...Freo & Matilda
Emu & kuda
Scottish Highland Cattle
Satu-satunya binatang yg dibiarkan bebas...nakal betul!

By 11.40am,we were done!We really enjoyed ourselves...getting up close & personal with the trained & tame animals

Kami singgah kat 1 of the park nearby (tak tau nama apa) to have our lunch (kari ayam)..n solat zuhur



Kemudian kami setkan GPS menuju ke Albany Wind Farm.Perjalanan mengambil masa lebih kurang sejam...tapi senang saja..sebab banyak signage dari tepi jalan.
We had to drive uphill untuk sampai ke tempat parking.There was ample spaces for parking

Albany Wind Farm is one of the most spectacular and largest wind farms in Australia.


2.15pm...kami je kat sini tengah2 hari buta
Public toilet
Information centre...staircase to the track ..to view the windmills
Open daily through out the years.Free entrance
18 wind turbines...supplying 80% of Albany's needs
Listen to swoosh swoosh of the blades rotating above your head!
The turbines have 65m tower & three 35m long blades


Kami kat sini lebih kurang 25 mins saja

Kemudian ....kita bergerak ke lokasi yang lebih happening..Torndirrup National Park untuk melihat The Gap & Natural Bridge

Tunggu...entry berikutnya.Stay tune!
