The boys could see the front door to Nana and Shelby’s cabin
through their windows in the back of the van. I can’t say for sure but I am
guessing Hussain Bolt may have had trouble beating the boys down to the cabin
once they saw that the door was open and Nana was awake!
After breakfast it was decided that the girls were going to
take it easy around the town this morning while we headed up to Busselton to
get a new SIM card for the phone Warnie (aka Ian Daley) has very kindly loant
me for the remainder of the trip, to replace the piece of useless wiring that
Telstra sold me.
We had a quick look around Busselton walking to the beginning
of the jetty and then after finding out it was @ $8 to walk on the jetty and
another two arms and three legs to go to some underwater observatory we about
faced. I think jetty’s look nicer from the shore anyway!
We then drove along the highway towards Cape Nautualist past
some of the biggest beach houses I have ever seen. I am pretty sure we could
fit our house and caravan into some of these McMansions garages. It wasn’t long
before we had to do another about face as they were also charging @ $8 to look
at the lighthouse!! If it was a grand old light house or was perched on the
edge of a cliff with a magnificent view I might have considered it. But this
thing was short and pudgy and sat in the middle of a brush paddock. I know I am
tight but this was a complete rip off!
We instead did the walk down to the lookout where we viewed
the Indian Ocean for the first time, a much better one than we would have got
from the lighthouse anyway! We headed back to camp and all of the girls to the
boys down to the beach at Prevelly for a swim while I headed to the tavern for
a bit of me time. Two hours and 4 pints later I was feeling pretty happy with
myself as I had picked 3 winners from 5 bets all at decent odds!
