Journey of Life

We started our day by checking out from Bunbury and hitting the road. The drive to Mandurah took about two hours, allowing us plenty of time to enjoy the scenery along the way. Road trips like this are a wonderful way to bond as a family while taking in Western Australia's beautiful landscapes. Once we arrived in Mandurah, we decided to look for the Giants of Mandurah, an outdoor art installation we had heard a lot about. These sculptures were meant to be hidden in different places, where art and nature would come together. However, after some searching, we couldn't locate them.
