G'dye from Perth, WA (Part 2)


The next morning, we had to wake up early to catch the bus to the jetty.


As you may have already guessed it, we're headed to Rottnest Island.


I think the boat ride lasted an hour or two.


The view on board was spectacular.


Doesn't this look a little like Greece ?


Water police.


A cool boat.


Industrial area.


Resemblance of Sydney's Opera House.


Rottnest Island could be regarded as a small resort town. There are many attractions within this little town. To state the obvious, it would be its beach which I reckon is nothing to shout about. There are certainly many other better beaches offered by Perth.

There are two means of exploring the island: by a guided coach or by bike.
My choice ? The bike.


Yes, I know I look stupid in that helmet. But in Australia, it is by law that you have to wear a helmet. Or else you'd be fined handsomely.


A nice, little chapel.


Red.


A breath-taking view of the sea.
~Ennis, me and Sue Yee~


My favorite attraction ~ The Lighthouse. I've always been fascinated with lighthouses.

Later, I went on solo walk on the beach.


Thirsty.


Serene.


Jetty.

All in all, the trip to Rottnest was well-worth. That if you are a beach lover. One thing I can't stand about it was the FLIES. As you may be well aware, this time around it's summer in Aussie Land. And their summer means lots and lots of flies swarming around your FACE.

It was so irritating that some resorted to ...


We were REALLY that desperate.

The fly problem was so bad that we had 2 bad case scenarios. An accidental fly or two actually managed to fly into Kenneth's mouth and ~GULP~ You know what happened. While Cheryl had a fly got stucked into her nose. ~Gross~

Stay tuned for Part 3.
