The Quokkas
More Perth: We stayed in Perth 5 nights. Good weather, when it did rain itt was at night and still by our standards still warm - about 12C although one night got down to 6C.
Rottnest Island: We took the ferry to what everybody recommend - Rottnest Island.
Just average in our view. The ferry takes about 2 hours so you arrive late morning and get the bus around the island which takes an hour so. As you have to be back to get the ferry at 4PM by using the last bus at 2.30 the time is limited.
The instructions to get the bus were hopeless. They said we could get the tickets at the bus depot but it was closed. So we had to go back to the Info Centre then found that that the driver sold them.!!!
However, we had a view of the island and went on a walking tour to look at the Quokkas.
They look like large hopping rats and are very friendly.
