Ridng around Rottnest

Though I wasn't firing on all cylinders, I was determined to take advantage of the good weather predicted for the Perth area and make the trip to Rottnest Island with Steve.We jumped on the ferry at Fremantle on a perfect windless day and sped across the 19 kilometers in comfort. It was a spectacular few days for biking around the island, [although a carrier on the bike would have been nice to carry the snorkelling gear..poor Steve!] Loved befriending the quokkas....dear little nocturnal creatures unique to the island.  It is also a car free zone which adds to the relaxation, and there are numerous turquoise bays and beaches to explore...a perfect getaway!
