Bunbury (Day 13)

This morning we went to the Dolphin Discovery Centre which fortunately is located right across the road from where we are staying.  The dolphins are wild, but they come right up to the beach into the shallows and interact with people that are allowed to stand in the water.  Apparently, there has only been 2 days since November when the dolphins have NOT come to the beach.  And today was one of them!  Typical.

So we hopped on a Eco Cruise and went out into Koombana Bay to find them.  The cruise has a 98% success rate of seeing the dolphins and this time, we were in luck.  We saw a few different alliances (I thought they called them pods, but obviously not) including one that had a baby dolphins.  The mum has been estimated at about 46yo.  Go mature mums!!!

The weather was really lovely today, but out on the boat, the wind really whipped up and it was quite cool.  Bella suffered the most and made us all suffer too!

Tonight, Darrel called around to the van for another catch up.  This time I grabbed a photo with him.  We have known each other since about 1996 when our schools shared accommodation facilities at a snow camp at Mt Buffalo.  We got chatting, got on really well and the rest is history.  I have visited him every time I've been over here and also came over to his wedding (19 years ago...sheesh).

A quick bath tonight, but with no easy baby bathing facilities at the caravan park, the sink in the van sufficed just perfectly!

Total kms travelled today: none (well, not in the car anyway.  Walked about 5km though)

Total kms travelled in total: same as yesterday
