Holidays: Margaret River, Australia (Part 2)

continued from Part 1 ...

Yallingup Maze

This was one attraction that we almost didn't go to, but am so glad we did!

It was lots of fun for the whole family. There are four towers at each corner of the maze, and part of the fun was trying to find your way to each of the four towers through the maze. There are secret doors and water guns for some extra squirting fun.

We divided our troop into three teams to compete against each other, and we had to take group selfies at each of the towers.

The free outdoor area is just as fun, with smaller puzzles to solve and logs to climb.

Cafe and store area, where you get your tickets
Off we go with our water guns

Holidays: Margaret River, Australia

During the March holidays, we decided to venture out of Malaysian borders to go Down Under, spending about a week at Perth and Margaret River with our extended family — all 18 of us!!

We had oodles of fun exploring part of Western Australia. If you are planning a trip there with kids, hopefully our experience may give you some helpful ideas. :-)

We did so much and took so many photos ... so we will be updating this blog as Mummy gets down to editing the photos etc. Do check back again soon for latest updates.


Pit Stop: Busselton

We took a 3-hour drive down from Perth, stopping at Busselton for a lovely picnic lunch under a shady tree by the coast. There were some cafes by the beach, and we ordered take-out from them.

Mummy had ordered a gigantic picnic mat from an Australian online store earlier, so we could fit the entire clan on it. The sun was hot, and there were lots of seagulls trying to get to our food. But the kiddos enjoyed chasing them in the heat.
