A weekly thread for discussing the wild, whacky and utterly mundane of life in our sizeable and crusty slice of the earth's crust.

I'm about to roadtrip to Albany, Denmark, and Pemberton for a week. Any suggestions of places to go, things to see?

If anyone has favourite cafés down there i'll be pretty damn thankful to hear about them.

I'm not sure if i'll miss my dog or my coffee machine more ;)

Although not sure on current status following recent flood.

Middleton Beach in Albany. And The Gap obvs.

Pemberton there's a cafe on the main street with an old loco out the front. Do that.

Beedelup Falls is a nice stroll. Worth looking into annual parks membership and if you think it'll offset parking charges if you visit lots of places.

Big Brook Dam, but might not be swimming weather. On the road down there is a restaurant atop a hill that used to have an old tram car as a dining area. They may have shut that now but the main dining area is nice.

Tall Timbers cafe in Manjimup. And the playground at the timber museum in town there is awesome if that's your thing.

Nearby is Donnelly River which is an village of a couple of dozen old saw mill workers' cottages. Has roos and emus walking around and you can feed them. Not much else though. No dogs allowed.

The ANZAC stuff at Albany is worth a visit. And of course Dog Rock.

There's a treetop walk down there somewhere that is popular. Not for me though. Not getting me that high.

Elephant Rocks and Madfish Bay (has a waterfall on it)
