Travelling to Margaret River with Four Strange Men

When Murray and I first met, we discovered that we both wanted to go to Margaret River, looked around the bar, grabbed a couple of guys and said "Let's do it". To be honest, I had my doubts. Four dudes meant four people that weren't going to plan, wake up on time, and show up sober. And that's exactly what happened.

But by some miracle, we got to Budget, rented a car, loaded the trunk, and was on our way to our destination by 11am. Who the fuck were these people? I had about 30 hours to find out.

Our first pit stop was at Miami Bakehouse. Apparently meat pies are somewhat of national dish in Australia. This little kiosk was situated in the middle of nowhere, but thank goodness it was because we were hungry!

After we checked into our motel, Dunsborough Inn, we made our way to Centennial Park by the water. The waters were shallow and seemed to stretch on forever. It was so beautiful we decided to take some band cover photos. Finally a foot in the Indian Ocean!

 Since we already covered meat pies and beaches, we had to complete our Australian adventure with "barbies" on the beach. Although we didn't get to go on the wine tours (which is what Margaret River is famous for), I did manage to finish a whole bottle of Margaret River Sauvignon Blanc by myself. Good enough for me.

Free barbies by the beach!

I woke up with vague memories of rolling around in the grass, harassing strangers, never-have-i-ever and skinny dipping, and there was sand all over my bed. We stopped by Evviva for breakfast and it was ridiculously expensive but I had been craving eggs benedict for a little while now... so goodbye $22.50

Perth locals usually make their way down to Margaret River for some nice waves. We were keen on seeing some big waves, so we drove to Yallingup Beach and some other beach. This was the first time I've ever seen waves like this! Can't wait to actually ride them.

We went on a obligatory cave tour at Ngili Cave. It was meh. 

 And finally, tired and ready to go home, we headed north back to Perth. It was such a good weekend and an unforgettable experience. Thanks, guys. Bros for life.
