It was time for the host couple to take a short vacation. It was actually a vacation arranged by the hostess. The family accompanied us and arranged a self-driving tour in the southwest corner of Western Australia.
The South West is one of nine Western Australian regions. It is named because it is located in the southwest corner of Western Australia. The Southwest District covers an area of approximately 23,970 square kilometers and has a population of approximately 123,000 people. The climate in the Southwest is Mediterranean, with dry summers and wet winters. The land is vast and sparsely populated, the sun is bright, the birds are singing and the flowers are fragrant. All kinds of natural vegetation are still growing perfectly on every piece of land here. You can see endless prairie everywhere, as well as groups of big black cattle and small animals. Sheep (copied from an introduction online, but it really lives up to its name).
Departing at 9 o'clock in the morning, heading southeast, heading south through the city like yesterday, along the Albany Highway, passing Vandling, Kojonup, Plantagenet, and finally arriving in Albany, the whole journey is 440 kilometers and takes more than seven hours.
This route is inland, and there are forests all along the way.
On the roadside not far from the city
It still feels like a city here, and in another twenty minutes we will enter the forest area.
Rest on the roadside.
The so-called expressway is our provincial secondary highway, which is two-lane in both directions and has no curb stones on both sides. It is impossible to pass. Fortunately, after passing a section of the road, there will be a three-lane area for passing. Of course, there are no cars on this road. While parking the car, I was still thinking, life is amazing! Inadvertently, I flew thousands of miles away and was able to drive forward in the forests of the southern hemisphere.
The pastures and herds of cattle and sheep on the roadside are indeed the characteristics of this place!
Arriving near a small town at 11.16, we went to a gas station to rest and refuel!
This type of RV is a way of recreation for locals.

Pats everywhere .
Continue on the road and encounter a road construction site, slow down and pass.
Arrive at Kojnapur at 12.36.
Continuing forward, at 14.10, we suddenly heard an abnormal noise from the front wheel. When we got out of the car, we saw that there was something wrong with our car. Just when we didn't know what to do, a vehicle that looked like a construction vehicle stopped beside us. The driver came down to ask about the situation, then turned around and went back to his car to get tools to help us deal with it.
I really need to give this a big thumbs up
After repairing the car, we spent another hour passing through Albany. We also completed this boring driving route and turned right onto the South Coast Highway. This road is almost all along the seaside, and there are even more beautiful natural scenery along the coast. Rainbow Coast (Rainbow Coast).
When we arrived at the small town of Denmark, we first had to solve the problem of eating.

Also stayed here at night.
After dinner we went out to look for the scenery. It's very close to the seaside.
There’s no way to describe it!
Much like the coast of Australia.
