Marmion Probus club enjoy morning tea at Noble Falls
18 Dec 2015
Members of Marmion Probus enjoy morning tea at Noble Falls en route to Toodyay (pronounced Toojay) believed to be derived from an Aboriginal word ‘duidgee’ meaning place of plenty.
It is situated on the Avon River 85kms north-east of Perth. Along the way members were treated to a spectacular display of wildflowers, in particular many of the 400 or so types of wattles which grow in South Western Australia.
Blue lechenaultia were also in full bloom providing a spectacular contrast. An excellent lunch was enjoyed in Toodyay followed by some free time to browse, the main attraction being the Christmas shop a 'must see' for anyone visiting this small town. A stop at a local winery on the way home was a delightful end to a great day.'
