Bunbury & Australind Caravan Parks, Western Australia 1-7 December 2009

Didn’t really do a lot during this period other than cleaning and a bit of needed maintenance.  The plan initially was to stay at the Discover Holiday Park in Bunbury for the period up till the 7th when we move into Cheryl & Keith’s.  Just be on the safe side though, we only booked for 3 days.  Unfortunately, that was three days too long!!  It is quite the noisiest caravan park we’ve ever stayed in.  For starters, it was way too close to the Busselton Highway (quite a busy road).  OK, we could see that, but the manager told us we’d have a quiet site.  Way wrong!  Then he parked a big truck belonging to a cabin liver one site away from us.  This cabin person left at 05:30AM every morning, and wasn’t quiet about it.  And then, as the last straw, another cabin guy brought his truck AND chain saw home, and gaily set about pruning a couple of trees – right during Happy Hour.  ABOMINATION!!!

That same night, there was a reasonably big bush fire a little further south which made for a lot of smoke and a really beautiful sunset.

So, we left and went to the Australind Caravan Park.  Much better, and we had three peaceful days, mellowing out under the trees.
