General Comments
Thanks you to the Foundation and the volunteers for their hard work to ;make this walk possible. Also “Bib’s best Burgers”:
1, Mumballup Tavern
2, Dwellingup Hotel
3, Collie Crown hotel
4, Albany Earl of Spencer
5, Northcliffe hotel!
These were the best in that order, the remaining one are not worth mentioning I would say.
