Cookernup - Welcome Sign

Last time I was down in this area I ashamedly forgot to visit Cookernup. Now I've made amends. Just look at this ornate welcome sign! January 2012

Cookernup - General Store

What a surprise finding such a large, modern and well-equipped store in Cookernup. Unless you are a local, there is no way you'd know this was here. They need a sign out on the highway! January 2012

Cookernup - Bus Stop

One of many interesting bus-stops around the hamlet. Lots of quite well-appointed homes around here. It's a well-kept secret! January 2012

Cookernup - Train Station

I was also surprised to find a functioning train station for a place this small. A white park bench sits there waiting for the Australind to pass through. January 2012
