Day 183
WA - Bunbury
January 13, 2017 in Australia ⋅ 🌙 20 °C
Da die einfachen, günstigen Unterkünfte in Busselton bereits ausgebucht waren, Buchten wir uns in ein Hostel in Bunbury ein. Hier genossen wir nach unserer Ankunft noch einen abendlichen Spaziergang durch die Stadt. Neben einem karierten Leuchtturm hat die Stadt einen Aussichtsturm in Form eines Ufos und eine kleine Einkaufsstraße zu bieten. Ansonsten gleicht die Stadt einem typisch deutschen Neubaugebiet, nur dass die Häuser hier noch enger stehen und alle keinen Garten besitzen!

Dies konnten wir vom Aussichtspunkt gut feststellen, nachdem wir die 92 Stufen des Ufos erklommen hatten.

Eine weitere Attraktion besuchten wir am nächsten Morgen. Auch hier kommen regelmäßig Delfine zu Besuch und schwimmen im flachen Wasser 1 Meter von uns entfernt.Read more

Day 260
Bunbury
May 26, 2019 in Australia ⋅ ☀️ 17 °C
Am Morgen verließen wir das schöne Busselton und starteten nach Bunbury, wo wir mittags ankamen. Wir schauten und erst den Leuchtturm in Schachbrett Optik an und liefen dann noch die 92 Stufen des Marlston Hill Lookouts hinauf, um die Stadt von oben zu sehen.
Später parkten wir bei Coles und liefen etwas durch die Stadt. Bei Coles kauften wir noch einen Blueberry Cheesecake aus dem Quick Sale, den wir gemütlich am Koombana Beach aßen.
Anschließend fuhren wir bis kurz vor Perth und campten in Serpentine gratis auf einem Parkplatz.Read more

Day Two
February 11, 2020 in Australia ⋅ ⛅ 22 °C
Day two began with breakfast at the $10 breakfast cafe. Miguel and I did not have breakfast as not hungry after last nights meal at Simply Thai. After breakfast, Miguel, Garry and I went off to buy the rolls for lunch. I packed us a tasty lunch and hot cross buns before heading to the local beach.
Marie, Brian, Garry and Roni set up on the beach while Miguel and I sat in the shade of one of the many picnic tables. Miguel trotted off for coffees while I relaxed and photographed life.

The crew stayed on the beach so Miguel and I nipped off for a pint. I found a Red Cross shop so of course had to have a quick peruse. I came out with two top costing $14.00. Miguel had a lemon lime and bitters waiting for me. It was a pleasant break from the crew. On returning to the hotel Miguel and Garry had a swim in the hotel pool and then we retired for an afternoon nap. Tonight we are off to the pub for dinner.Read more

Today is Thursday, it is our 4th day in Bunbury. We are not going to the hotel for breakfast again. Michael isn’t a breakfast person. But we are going to the Dolphin centre today. The Dolphins are not making themselves known today, but we did see the feeding of the tropical fish. We had a coffee in the cafe and I took some photos , plus had the pleasure of being allowed to interact with a live starfish and stroke some beautiful anemones.
We decided as we will not have another chance to visit the Art Gallery. The experience was slightly disappointing as there was not much art due to an exibition weekend being organised. Most of the rooms were closed as being set up with art work. But I managed to take a few photos.

The Galleries opened on 14 February 1987, when Bunbury Citizen of the Year, George Baxter, cut a ribbon fashioned in the shape of the building with a ceremonial sword. The former convent has been known variously as the Bunbury Art Galleries and Bunbury Regional Art Gallery. It was formally a convent. Plus a catholic school. Traces can still be found in the building of its colonial past.

From there it was off to the Prince of Wales pub for lunch. We left the crew behind. Back to the hotel for an hour and then off to the movies. We went to see Richard Jewel the Clint Eastwood movie of the 1996 Atlantic bombings.

During the 1996 Summer Olympics in Atlanta, security guard Richard Jewell discovers a suspicious backpack under a bench in Centennial Park. With little time to spare, he helps to evacuate the area until the incendiary device inside the bag explodes. Hailed as a hero who saved lives, Jewell's own life starts to unravel when the FBI names him the prime suspect in the bombing. It was proved that he could not have possibly done the bombing but it ruined his life. He died at 44.
After the movie we went to Dooleys for pizza of which Michael and I went half. Seventy five dollars it cost. Oh well I’ll never learn. But all in all it was a brilliant day . ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️🍕🍕 🍕🍕🍕🍕🍕🍕🍕🍕🍕🍕🍕Read more
