Hello Happy Monday to you.
Last week Ian and I had a few days down south. We were both so happy to get away for a short break.We stayed in Busselton and travelled around. Just so relaxing going from place to place not really worrying which direction we were taking.
The highlight of our trip was a trip to the Underwater Observatory and Jetty Train.
Here is the train we went out on. The train goes out every hour. You can walk out on foot too but as we had booked a tour in the Observatory we decided to get the whole package. The jetty has recently been done up.
In the Observatory it was like being inside a fishbowl with us being inside and the fish outside the bowl. The guide explained about the sea life as we went down the Observatory. At the top level you look out the window to see where the waves are and she explained where the high and low tide mark are. As we went down each level we got to see the most amazing sea life. It was so peaceful looking out into the ocean , I know I was very relaxed in there. Maybe it was watching the world go by at seabed level.
This picture shows all the coral growing on the jetty pylons, there might even be some fish in there.
Fish came so close you could just about touch them. The guide turned on the sound and we could hear a ticking noise. This was some sort of sea creature that was only a few centimetres big that was making a noise.
This shot is just below the waters surface. The amount of fish was just amazing from small to bigger fish. Ian and both agreed it was a great experience and I would certainly recommend visiting the Observatory.
Other things that have made me Happy during our stay away were:
Chocolate tasting, Fudge Tasting,Cheese Tasting, Eating Yummy food,Walking, Window Shopping and generally have a all round great time. Oh and finding a beautiful cross stitch shop on the drive home.
I hope you have a Happy Monday.

Sounds like lots of fun was had, what kind of creature made that clicking noise? A fish or a jellyfish kind of thing? I'm intrigued something so little can make such a loud noise, but then again maybe not my little girl can sure make herself heard when she wants to be Lol Thanks for sharing the pics!
This observatory looks entirely fascinating. I think I may have to add it to my list of places to visit.
Thanks for sharing it with us :-)
