Off to Rotto!

All the swimming gear, sunscreen and zinc paste (it comes in pink!) and bike helmets (in Australia you get a fine for riding a bike without a helmet) have been packed and we are so ready to go!

Rottnest Island is spontaneously calling our names for an overnight stay and I am excited! It has been over two years since my last visit and I can’t wait for two days of cycling around the island, swimming in crystal clear ocean water, feeding some quokkas (they look like a mixture of rats and mini-kangaroos) and eating some delicious seafood and just having a good time!

Despite of my (and many Perthinites’) love for Rottnest, I wouldn’t say it is the ultimate destination for everyone who visits Perth. Unfortunately, it is overpriced and some may consider it is even a little bit boring. However, I can guarantee that with a couple of good friends, swimwear and bikes it can be simply the best weekend getaway destination this continent has to offer!
