Busselton on the 6-7-8th August anyone?
« on: 20 July, 2010, 03:55:25 PM »

We're heading down to Busso on Friday the 6th to Sunday the 8th of August. No offroading though, staying at the Kookaburra caravan park near the big jetty. Tea Saturday night at the old Esplanade pub (prolly friday night too) We'll do the usual wandering around and checking out the touristy bits, Dunsborough etc. Anyone else want to tagalong and make it a trip?


Cheers, Wayne

Description:  A weekend trip to Busselton and surrounds staying at the Kookaburra Caravan Park. Plenty to see and do.
A rough itinerary .............
Drive down Friday arvo and setup. Chill out with a feed and a drink or two.

Saturday morning over to the market, wander off from there for a drive and a look around, then Tea at the old Esplanade Pub dining room for one of their great cheap meals. That's  Soup, B+B, Salad Bar and Mains for around $20 all up. Desserts are cheap (if you can fit them in) and they do pretty good Kids meals Too. Also a playgrouind for them to run around in as well.

Sunday, who knows?

Basically do as much or as little as you like over the weekend.

Looks like a good weekender coming up Cheesy/ Cheesy/ Cheesy/

If you think nobody cares whether you're alive or dead, try missing a couple of mortgage payments.

If everything seems to be going well, you have obviously overlooked something.

Experience is something you don't get until just after you need it.

Next time matey  Cheesy



BTW The Vasse Markets will be on the Saturday morning so looks like a visit there will be called for. It's a local one that has lots of bits and bobs and some yummy food.


So a rough itinerary would be.......


Drive down Friday arvo and setup. Chill out with a feed and a drink or two.

Saturday morning over to the market, wander off from there for a drive and a look around, then Tea at the old Esplanade Pub dining room for one of their great cheap meals.
