Well here it is our blog for our 2014 adventure - the adventure down under in Australia. We, Sean, Krystin, Matthew and Kade Rennie, are heading to Australia for a year. The adventure starts before we actually get to where we will live. We are heading to New Zealand on Christmas day for a little family vacation then off to the east coast of Australia before settling in Falcon in Western Australia. We will be about an hour south of Perth on the Indian Ocean. So stay tuned as we plan to post often to keep our family and friends up to date on our adventure.

Another Visit to the Margaret River/Yallingup Area

So we are now heading into our first school break of this year - a two week break and we are heading south. So I figured I should post what we did last weekend so I am update.


We headed south again, this time with the Fetters, to the Margaret River area to take in the Margaret River Pro Surf Competition.  It is a world class surfing competition with all the hot surfers from around the world competing. It was a great day filled with some amazing surfing.  Sean was in his glory.

We also did some more exploring in the area.  We headed up to the Cape Naturaliste lighthouse.  It is the last manned lighthouse in Australia. It gives a great view of Geographe Bay. We then headed down the coast to check out more beaches and to visit a brewery. Oh and to enjoy some ice cream at Simmo's - so many amazing flavours - I love ice cream.  We also hung out at Yallingup again this weekend - we love it there and were excited to show it to the Fetters - of course the visit included good times with the Schleuter's and more snorkeling.
