Bridgetown to Busselton

Saturday night was a late one for us both. After watching Swamp Thing, The Turner Brown Band, the living legend Russell Morris & finished off with the Black Sorrows featuring Vika & Linda Bull. We took a leisurely stroll up the hill past the Hospital to the Showgrounds. Our heads hit the pillow just before midnight as the Black Sorrows continued playing.

Another leisurely morning, we packed up the van & drove into Bridgetown. Parked up at a free powered parking bay. Picked up a coffee & walked to our final 2 events which were the "Ten cent shooters & The Riders."

Bridgetown Blues

After listening to a few happy campers come back from the music venues throughout the early hours of this morning we left the campsite & walked into town.

Along the way we discovered the BFG had dropped one of his pegs.

First stop was the lunch Ian won from Triple M radio station, by guessing which artist originally sang a song. Ian's guess was "Madonna" and you guessed it, like a virgin. Some of the MMM crew.

Still got the Blues

After avoiding an emu that wanted to commit suicide we arrived safely at Bridgetown. Set up camp at the Showgrounds.

We walked into town to pick up our weekend tickets Ian won from Triple M, our radio station. We slipped into Bridgetown Hotel for a tipple

A walk past the butchers revealed a simple message for all environmentalists.
