Day 100 Saturday 23rd July

100 days of travelling. Wow!!!
We left Walpole at 8.30 this morning and set off for Albany. We travelled through some beautiful countryside with lots of grassy fields and karri forests. We went through the town of Denmark and then arrived in Albany. The caravan park at Emu Point is  where we are staying and it is right on the beach. It lies between Oyster Harbour and King George Sound.
We took a drive up to Mount Clarence where we saw the Anzac Memorial where there was a magnificent tribute to the soldiers of World War 1. The view was sensational, looking out over King George Sound and into the harbour, called Princess Royal Harbour.
After driving along the harbour we continued on to find a rural area called Torbay. There is a bay called Torbay just near this area but we couldn’t get there. We found a hall called Torbay Hall and it was established in 1912. This is just for my Mum who lives in a retirement village called Torbay.
