The sunsets are returning. 

The locals on the island - the only place in the world where you will find a Quokka. (Tiny kangaroo) 

A well deserved icecream - after riding 22kms. 

Everyone was on bikes, and the kids all had the easy seats at the back. 

Some of the clearest sea water I have ever seen. 

Salmon Bay on Rottnest. 

New Years Day. Rottnest Island. 25kms from Perth in the Indian Ocean. A small island, where no cars are allowed. It was the first time in thrity years that Anita and Julia had ridden a bike! 

Any chance for Mollie to get wet, she will be there. 

Next... Kings Park. 

The kids were creeping further and further in, until... wipeout! 

Back to the beach. 

The beach wasn't too busy either 

A pair of TITS. (Typical International Transport Systems) :) 

 

Who let the Celt in? 

It's a hard life at times. 

Traditional BBQ down on the river. 

 

Keep running kids, oh yes another pint would be great! 

The kids love the ferral Brewery, as they can run riot in the gardens. 

Ferral Brewery a micro brewery in the Swan Valley, surrounded by vineyards. We all went in between Christmas and NY - like we hadn't had enough to drink! 

Annie with a healthy appetite!! Check out her and Paul's plate. 

Christmas dinner - just like in the UK.....maybe. And we had Duck, not Turkey. 

After the chaos of opening presents, we all went to the beach on Christmas day
