Albany

A few photos from around Albany:

Overlooking the Southern Ocean at Albany's Torndirrup National Park

The "Natural Bridge"

Partway up Isthmus Hill overlooking one of the amazing bays

On the replica of the brig "Amity"

View of the port from Mt Clarence (weather was lovely the
second day we were there)

Part of the Anzac Memorial, top of Mt Clarence.  Huge
celebrations in about 10 days, as this is the Australian port
from where the Anzacs departed

We had a couple of days looking around Albany, mainly the national park which boasts some really diverse coastal scenery.  The town is gearing up for the big Anzac centenary on 1st November and there's been a lot of work going on.  As a town Albany's nice enough, but it's the location that really makes it.
