The holiday begins. On Monday 20 November 2023 we were up at 5.30 to finish packing for our trip to Bunbury in south-west Western Australia. Our driver collected us from home and took us to the airport. We checked in and then had a quick breakfast before boarding the 9.15 plane. The plane arrived at Perth at 10.30 (Perth time) – a flight of just over four hours.
At the airport in Perth we collected the hire car which we had booked for our stay in Western Australia.
Once Robin became used to driving the car, we made our way to Bunbury stopping at a service centre for a vegetable pastie and a cheese and spinach roll.
We booked into the Best Western Lord Forrest Hotel.
Our rooms were on the third floor with a view of the beach, a short walk from the hotel.
The guest rooms overlooked the restaurant and recreation area on the ground floor.
On one of my walks around the city I discovered a sculpture of Lord Forrest who was at one time Premier of Western Australia. The sculpture was located on the corner of Victoria Street and Stephen Street.
The hotel was centrally located in the town and after unpacking our bags we went for a walk looking for the Visitor Centre which was not in a hurry to be found.
We had dinner at the hotel – spaghetti Bolognese. We sent Nick a photo as we often have pasta on a Monday at home.
After dinner we went for another walk. The weather in Bunbury was sunny with temperatures from 14 degrees to 32 degrees.
