On to the next destination, Augusta and Cape Leeuwin:

Some birds:







What was this ??



And who is living here??



Then back in the car and on our way to Margaret River. Driving in (the main street of) Margaret we found that it is a very busy town, loads and loads of tourists:



We parked and got out of the car, and saw someone had lost his or her keys. The finder was friendly enough to put them in a visible spot:



We had lunch (BLT sandwich, burger and fries) which were below average. Also no cappuccino available. It did not spoil our holiday pleasure, but no recommendation for the restaurant.

We wanted to spend the night somewhere around (or in) Dunsborough. In the RAC book accommodation guide we had with us we had a choice between either one of the 3-star motels or a 5 star resort. Since we were on holiday we thought it was ok to spoil us for one night and we decided to book at the resort.
But first we drove to Cape Naturaliste, so we can (in a way) say we have done the cape-to-cape ;-).




And again the same bird:



Looking down we saw one of these again (remember the first one?). We looked it up, and it appears to be the so called spider-wasp. Although the sound it makes when flying by your head is a bit scary, it seems to be pretty harmless for people (far more than the normal wasp). It feeds on spiders, and is constantly digging in the sand to try and find spiders. When caught it will (after poisoning it) drag the spider to its nest to act as food:



By the end of the afternoon we arrived in our resort-hotel. Well, it was indeed a bit more expensive, but it was worth it..




I forgot to take photos of the studio itself, but it was a very nice room. Very comfy beds, a shower and a 2-person spa. Unfortunately the restaurant was not open (closed on Sundays) so we drove to Dunsborough where we had a nice (outside) dinner at an Italian café. Back in the resort we thought it might be worth while to test the cappuccino in the bar downstairs. They did have a cappuccino machine, but the guy operating it was not able to create a decent one for us :-(. So, some points were lost here (final result for the resort still far above average ;-).
