Rottnest Island is a small island in the Indian Ocean off the coast of Perth. There are no private motor vehicles on the island. The most popular way of getting around is by bike. So we spent one of the cooler days (only reached a high of 85 degrees) taking a nice 18km ride around the island seeing the beautiful coastline. Zach had a fantastic time riding in the baby trailer. Mom and Dad were pretty sure they hadn't ridden a bike that far since they got their drivers licenses! They tried to take some inspiration from the fact that Lance Armstrong is currently competing in the Tour Down Under down here.
Zach came prepared with his water bottle and bike helmet...
....and cookies.
The turquoise bays were filled with gorgeous yachts.
And some really, really nice boats.
And even the remains of some ship wrecks.
After the long bike ride it was time for Dad and Zach to take a dip in the ocean and cool off. Yes, that's the ocean, not a swimming pool.
Ah, much better!
