Still amazes me that people get fooled by these.. It just seems so obvious

Nice part of the world tho a bit dry this time of the year. In the wetter months it is great.
I'm there once or twice a year due to ARC and state rallies.

A lot of the naming around the South West comes from the 'Noongar' language.

"Visitors to Western Australia invariably notice the many placenames ending in -up, such as Joondalup, Nannup and Manjimup. This is because in the Noongar language, -up means "place of". For example the name Ongerup means "place of the male kangaroo"
