Walpole is the wettest town in Western Australia and it was. Lots of wind and rain, winter woollies were out. Did the river cruise and saw a dugite snake.

Went to the Valley of the Giants  to see the famous tingle and karri trees. They have built this amazing tree skywalk through them 40m high. This is to protect the trees as they have very shallow roots which can be easily damaged if walked over. 

Visited a few beaches but far to cold and windy for the beach. Met a tiger snake, two snakes in two days. 

We wanted to try marron which is the WA equivalent to Queensland red claw. You can only catch them for one month a year and there are massive fines if you get them out of season. However there was a marron farm nearby where you can buy all year. They are black in colour and very vicious. We had to put them in the freezer to send them to sleep before preparing for cooking. It was fun watching Ed trying to get them out of the esky into the bag for the freezer.
