Fremantle and Busselton, WA

We spent Monday exploring Fremantle, the port city for Perth. It’s a quiet city steeped in maritime lore, mostly shipwrecks. The Dutch and English first made forays to Australia in the 1600s and without ways to determine where they were often ran aground and sank.

We left Fremantle later on Monday and docked in Busselton to the south around 7:00 am Tuesday. The weather was perfect, 70 and sunny. Busselton claims the second longest jetty in the world at 1.8+ km. It’s so long that they have a train to take you to the end. We walked the jetty both ways and felt every meter of it. Then we took a stroll in the center of town and sat at an outdoor cafe for iced coffee. Australians are big on coffee and some would say coffee snobs.もっと詳しく
