After setting up camp & visiting the Tourist Information Centre we travelled out to Albany's historic whaling station at Discovery Bay.
We really enjoyed our visit to Torndirrup National Park
This is the Natural Bridge - carved from ancient granite by the forces of nature
The Gap features a 25 metre sheer drop to the ocean - there was a cantilever built out over the gap - scary for me to walk out there :)

On November 1, 1914, the first convoy of Australian and New Zealand troops departed for the First World War from King George Sound, Albany. For many, Albany was their last sight of Australian soil.
The Desert Mounted Corps Memorial on the summit of Mount Clarence replicates a monument to the fallen on the banks of Port Said in Egypt.
We also visited the National Anzac Centre further down the hill.
boys & their toys :)
(at the Princess Royal Fortress)
There was time for a taste (@ $5, $10 or $15 a pop)
of whisky at this distillery.
We had to use these to be cosy at Cosy Corner!!
