Busselton MondayRain in the night but fine all day.Very windy tonight so we have battened down the hatches, rolled the awning away and settled for the night.There is an open air cinema in Busselton but we have seen the film they are showing if we hadn't we may have gone tonight.The films seem to show here about 2 months later than Brisbane.The gourmet tour didn't quite work out due to miscalculation with timing so we were never near a winery with a restaurant at ...

Busselton SundayThe weather pattern here is definitely cloudy with a shower a.m. and clearing p.m.We got wakened last night about 1.30 by a siren going of for about a minute.First thoughts was a bush fire then I remembered we are not in the bush but we are camped under a tree, second thought was tsunami so I thought well it will put the bush fire out.Shows how little notice we take of warnings.Nobody else mentioned it today and we are now thinking it was either c...

Albany W.A. Weds.The car past its service with flying colours and at about a 1/3 of the price we pay in Redcliffe so when we get back changes will be made.It was a cloudy, windy morning and we didn't mind staying around the van.Later the weather improved and we went again to the area where Whale World is and it was very rewarding. Awesome cliffs and beautiful beaches including the Gap, Natural Bridge and Salmon Holes which is a beach where salmon come in really...
