Busselton...The good life

This is the life! My week has consisted of Swimming,Sun baking,Bike riding,Walking,Exploring,Reading,Chatting and eating. Not a bad way to spend my time.
I am enjoying Busselton that much i have extended my stay until the end of Easter and it solves the problem of finding somewhere to stay thats not booked out.I have also decided to try and find some casual work seems i will be here for awhile as i don't want to become too lazy.
I had to move camp sites this week because the site i was on had already been booked as the park is full of grey nomads who make the pilgrimage annually and book the same site year after year.
Some are so old and frail i wonder how they manage.
I think i will have to move again in a couple of days which is a shame as i like the spot where i am now,I have more shade and I'm closer to the amenity block which makes for a very social spot as there is always a steady stream of nomads shuffling their way backwards and forwards to the loo,It also means i will have to reset up again and as i have added to my annex it may take a while.

Yesterday I went for a walk out on the Busselton jetty which is 1.8 km long. apparently it used to be 2km until they had a fire and part of it burnt down.There is also a souvenir shop and the souvenirs would have to be some of the best i have ever seen,They mostly have a beachy or nautical theme not your regular tacky stuff but things that are useful and tasteful.If i had a home i would have been tempted to buy a few things.
I plan on going back and doing the tour to the underground observatory as its meant to be amazing.
