Our visit to the area coincided with Manjimup's Cherry Harmony Festival and we set off on Saturday -
to our delight there were buses disgorging passengers brought in to enjoy the day, so there was a good, happy and appreciative crowd.
It began with a parade including elves, vintage cars and tractors, one pulling coaches with passengers, a stilt walker (+'companion') army band a pair of Clydesdales pulling a cart and various locals dressed festively.
There was wood chopping, lots of stalls, with 'stuff' to buy and food outlets, some wine and produce tasting stalls and cooking demonstrations, finally a fashion parade as the day became warm and summery.
John was a little stunned to realise he had worked as a mechanic on most of the makes of vehicle in the "vintage" parade, oh dear !
