    Saturday morning 9th Sept. we set off for a day of wine, chocolate and cheese in the Margaret River area. Our first stop was Yelvertone Protea Farm. They produce blooms for the local market as well as overseas. We were allowed inside the cool room and there were so many beautiful colours.
    Following that we had morning tea at Margaret River Chocolate factory. (Great chocolate, no photos,)
    Next stop was a small family run boutique winery, Bettenays Wines and Margaret River Nougat. We spent a very pleasant time there, tasting and talking. They not only produce some beautiful wines but also some wonderful nougat. They also have a greatest couple of liqueurs a white nougat one and a coffee one, both were absolutely delicious. Unfortunately they only do cellar door sales, so you will need to visit. We walked away with a very nice Sauvignon Blanc Semillon and some nougat.
    We stopped for lunch at Margaret River then we headed to Voyager Estate. With its magnificent gardens and buildings this was an eye opener. And it is still family owned.
    Next stop was Leeuwin Estate another magnificent family run winery. Since 1985 they have been holding concerts in the grounds with the last one held in 2019. (Google it to see who has appeared.)
    We finished of our day with some cheese tasting at the Margaret River Dairy Company. It was so nice we even bought some. (Again no photos we really are slack.)
    Back to our campground just in time for another sunset. Sorry about the lack of photos but Mr Google has heaps.
