Traveling east from Denmark to Albany




Our hippie neighbour was out of his trance and very willing to move his motorhome so we were able to leave our beloved Denmark safely! (If you ever come to Denmark stay at Riverbend. It's like living on your own farm without any of the work.)
We drove to Albany where we had arranged for our caravan to have a service. We spent a few days in a rural area of Albany - rolling fields, grazing cows and an incredible strawberry farm - the best strawberries we had ever tasted - $3 a kg! We also needed to do some shopping so visited an excellent farmers market and walked around the historical part of Albany looking at some of the restored buildings and magnificent views across the harbour out to sea.
It rained most of the time we were there and as we had visited Albany before we spent the days relaxing and reading. It was lovely seeing rain after having not seen any rain anywhere for ages. After our relaxing time we were ready to explore parts of the coast we had never seen before.
