Thierings on Tour

We were so lucky to wake up to blue skies and no rain, woohoo! So we made the most of the morning, packed up quickly and headed off after a quick brekky at camp. It also meant that we could easily explore Busselton Jetty this morning before my work training session in Dunsborough. 

It was absolutely freezing and the girls weren’t thrilled at the thought of walking all the way to the end of the jetty. To make things worse, we just missed the train and the next one wasn’t going to be for ages. So instead we took photos from the start of the jetty, had a little look around, but didn’t go all the way to the end.

Instead, the girls opted for playground heaven with a huge nautical themed playground right by the water’s edge. There were climbing ropes that took them to the top of the mast and so much to explore. They could have easily spent hours there…

However we were on a time schedule, so they dropped me off at a training session for work and headed to the Dunsborough Fun Park with mini golf and epic trampolines. Sounds like everyone burnt a lot of energy!

After a quick stop in town for lunch we were off to spend one night away from the van in a lovely looking place called Pullman Bunker Bay. It was fancy and we definitely looked like disheveled caravaners rocking up for a night with our shopping bags filled with clothes and supplies.

It was a gorgeous two bedroom villa, I was so excited to enjoy the extra space I actually forgot to take photos other than the one of the girls jumping happily on a king sized bed. There was also a “heated” pool, not quite sure what it was heated to, but it didn’t feel like it cut through the chill, ha ha

Anyway, we had a nice swim and while the NRL grand final was on we got to sit on a couch drinking wine out of a glass – the real luxuries you miss while on the road. The kids also loved binging on a bit of TV straight from their bed in their fancy bathrobes, the cuties. When in Bunker Bay, I also made the most of time to relax in the bath with a glass of wine. A true early birthday present to me – cheers!

To top the day off we had a glowstick party, which was a hoot! Scarly was absolutely exhausted by the end of the day and asked to go to bed, falling asleep within minutes. A fabulous day for all.
