On the drive to Swan Valley, we stopped over at Whiteman Park. Caversham Wildlife Park(http://www.cavershamwildlife.com.au/) is located in the park. See http://www.whitemanpark.com/attractions/index.asp
The Darling Range(see photo below) is the tilted edge of a huge plateau that is the foundation of the South Western third of Australia. It is one of the most ancient places on earth; its granites and quartzite were formed some 2,500 million years ago. In this range, known locally as the Perth Hills lay the Shires of Mundaring and Kalamunda, and south along the range and in the foothills lay the heritage towns of Armadale, Gosnells, Serpentine and Jarrahdale.
<-On the way to Swan Valley, we saw these wild Kangroos! They were just lazing around.
Not a good time to visit the Wine Valley because the grapes are not in season. But nevertheless, it's a beautiful sight.
It's near winter.. all the grapes are all freezed and dried up!... is this how rasins are produced?!!
We stopped by this Margret River Chocolate Factory for a rest and went in for some chocolate tasting. There was a huge group of tourists while we were there. The whole place was bustling... it's not only a chocolate retail outlet,there was a ice-cream parlour and a alfresco cafe overlooking the valley
Freshly made yummy chocolates!
Free chocolate tasting!
Chocolate-making in the process
