Chapman Pool to Big Valley



Day 56 - Chapman Pool to Big Valley

Chapman Pool, Margaret River, Cowaramup, Big Valley Campsite

Friday, 15 March 2013
Last night I had more ants. I put out Ant Rid next to the cupboard above sink. Soon had over a hundred ants feeding. This morning they were all gone. I hope permanently!

After breakfast and a walk we packed up and drove into Margaret River. Did some shopping and sight seeing. People stopped us in the street and asked about Tuka - how old is he and what breed of dog is he?

Drove onto Cowaramup a small town with life-size fibreglass cows all along the main street. Very lifelike - Tuka went up to them and sniffed them. Spent some money in the Candy Cow - "Australia's Greatest Sweet Shop & Candy Factory".

Soon it was time for my second brewery - Cowaramup Brewing Co. They have a range of beers on tap, including pilsener, pale ale, indian pale ale and porter, all brewed on the premises.

Then onto Big Valley Campsite about 10 minutes drive south-east of Margaret River. We were booked in by a friendly owner who took us to our site. A lot of caravans and tents throughout the large camping ground. It is also a working sheep farm so Tuka got to observe some sheep from a distance.
