I think its fair to say that the highlight of our trip was our 4 day weekend in a small town about 3.5hrs south of Perth called Margaret River. The area is famous for its wineries and beaches - both of which are phenomenal! My girlfriend Suzi organized the weekend and found an amazing house that was both kid friendly, and a relaxing retreat for the grown-ups.
We headed down on Friday December 18, and Ines took the kids for a little walk of the gardens while we unpacked the cars and settled into the house.
On Saturday morning headed to beautiful Redgate Beach.
We spent a perfect afternoon relaxing, chatting, enjoying some drinks, and playing a little didgeridoo.

In the afternoon Ines looked after the kids while Blair, Suzi, Chris and I headed out to sample some of the local wines. The photo below is from one of our favourite West Australian Wineries, Voyager.
Later in the day the kids played...
...the adults relaxed and chatted (this is "Uncle Andrew", my sisters boyfriend)...
...while Blair cooked the most amazing paella!
After a fantastic Saturday night enjoying fabulous food, wine and company we started Sunday out with another beach outing and spent the afternoon relaxing at the house.

Before heading back to Perth we enjoyed breakfast by the beach on Monday morning, followed by some sightseeing and visiting local purveyors.
