April 26 - 30th Perth. - Reviving Busselton and song Six hours of thrilling coach time, and two made-for-coach quality films, after I left Albany we pulled back into East Perth station, the exact place I'd left for Busselton ten and a half weeks beforehand. It was a little weird going back to a place that I'd been before, clearly I've become too used to constantly moving on and being in new places...don't know how I'm going to cope when I come back to the U...

April 22 - 26th. Albany. ...It's a work in progressWe drove down the mountain, through Denmark and onwards towards Albany. Three Op (charity) shops and a hidden away cafe later I bid farewell to Taj and Sahyma on the doorsteps of Bayview YHA, 2 cheap books and the memory of an amazing cup of chai the richer. I hadn't actually made a reservation with the hostel so it was a relief when I got a bed with no hassle, there are plenty of other hostels in town but ...

April 12 - 22nd. Sahyma's Sanctuary, Denmark. -Health warning - this is a long one! (see the previous Donnybrook entry for an explanation of WWOOFing, tsk don't you know not to skip chapters!)

Those 6 steps were hard, man. Any bad omens inhera...

April 5th - 12th. Two Dams Organic Farm, Donnybrook. - WWOOF, bark, mind that tractor etc... WWOOFing then. I should probably explain. It stands for Willing Workers On Organic Farms and the gist would be that in exchange for 4-6 hours work 6 days a week you recieve a place to stay plus meals. The less contractual side is that you get to see bits of the country off limit to the ticklist tourist, learn a touch about farming and rural happenings plus, shock horror,...

April 2nd till 5th: Bunbury - Dolphins, beaches and bloody Easter I'd once before planned on going to Bunbury, in that case just going there and back in the space of a single day, but had arrived at the bus stop only to see the coach pulling away. No such bad luck on this occasion as I was at the stop in Augusta with plenty of time to spare. It was only a couple of hours untill we arrived in Bunbury...well 'in' Bunbury is not completely accurate. We arrived at B...
