TRAVEL | PERTH DAY 3 @ AUSTRALIA

  

One thing that vividly imprinted in my memory about Albany that I could bring along with me would have be the spacious compound which is liberally occupied by each beautiful house within the peaceful neighbourhood, besides the scenic nature that is further warmed up by the friendly folks around. We are blessed with several days of beautiful weather which allows us to capture more wonderful moments during our short stint at this lovely town.

  

Hence, after checking out from the genial homestay at Spencer’s Park, we made a quick detour for few attraction spots before really bidding goodbye to the wonderful Albany on our third day in Western Australia.

ALBANY HERITAGE PARK | NATIONAL ANZAC CENTRE @ ALBANY, PERTH

National Anzac Centre!

We just went around the lush park in a jiffy without visiting the centre itself as we do not want to keep our European amigo waiting too long at his winery in Denmark.

Brief Info On ANZAC Centre

Opened on the 1st of November 2014 by the Prime Ministers of Australia and New Zealand, The National Anzac Centre is an award-winning facility that uses multimedia, interactive technology and historical artifacts to create a deeply personal connection with the past, as well as pay tribute to those who served. The interpretive content that forms part of the interactive experience was developed by the Western Australian Museum and the Australian War Memorial and is delivered via a series of interactive visual and audible displays. The experience delivered at the NAC is known for commemorating the war through the stories of the Anzacs as opposed to telling its own story via pro-war or anti-war sentiments.

ANZAC PEACE PARK @ ALBANY, PERTH

 It was indeed a truly pleasant day with such good weather of plenteous sunlight that would certainly place any shutterbugs on cloud nine!

Brief Info On ANZAC Peace Park

The Park features the Pier of Remembrance, the Interpretive Walk and the Lone Pine Grove as well as being the venue for Albany’s ANZAC Day Service and Parade each year.

The Park is adjacent to Princess Royal Harbour and each departing ship is represented by an engraved panel on the Pier of Remembrance as well as the AE2 submarine plaque which sits at the end of the Pier, a gift to the Albany community from the AE2 Commemorative Foundation.

GIN LAO @ ROCKCLIFFE WINERY, DENMARK WA

Well, just before we departed farther, we got to relish in some delish Lao food that was passionately dished up by the genial owner of Gin Lao, a pop-up restaurant located within Rockcliffe Winery offering amazing South-East Asian cuisine alongside Steve’s wine tasting cellar.

Needless to say, those yummy grubs tickled our palate amusingly and so happened, I was just thinking of some homey Asian food the night before while I’m vacationing in Perth, haha.

Hence, Carpe Diem per se!

 

GREENS POOL @ WILLIAM BAY NATIONAL PARK

More stories here: http://bit.ly/GreensPoolDenmark

Greens Pool lies on the edge of William Bay National Park and is famous for its turquoise green waters and pristine white sandy beach. Large granite boulders surround the pool, protecting it from the might of the Great Southern Ocean.

  

No wonder this pool makes divine spot for children young and old especially during summer, due to its gradually safe, sloping rock formations cut that comes with small crevasses and pools. The wave-less waters make it easy to spot multitudes of sea creatures if you are into snorkeling or a perfect shelter to enjoy a wind-free day at the beach.

ELEPHANT ROCKS & ELEPHANT COVE @  WILLIAM BAY NATIONAL PARK

More stories here: http://bit.ly/ElephantRocksElephantCoveDenmark

Those elephant rocks are incredibly shaped themselves, standing on the beach and gazing out upon the Great Southern Ocean while towering above you as you enter the cove giving you a sense of perspective. It is just about merely 10 minutes or less on foot from the Greens Pool

Do those rocks remind you of some animals- elephant?

Yeah, hence the name! Hehe…

As it name suggests, Elephant Rocks looks exactly like a herd of elephants, paddling in the shallow waters and enjoying it in a degage manner. It’s definitely a popular spot and a must-visit whenever you are in the South Coast for the beautiful Denmark.

This enclave is certainly another beautiful resident of the South West Coast apart from the mesmerizing Wind Mill Farm in Albany too.

More stories coming up on Rockcliffe Winery as well as wholesome meals at Mrs Jones Cafe the very next day.
