Perth; October 27

We were both up around 6:30 but it was still a bit of a rush to make the 8:45 tour boat to Freemantle and thence by seagong catamaran to Rottnest Island. Rottnest Island is about 12 Km off the coast slightly north of Freemantle. It is a great distination for day tripping. It has beautiful beaches and there are no cars. We took the glass bottom boat ride out to the reefs to see the fish and two shipwrecks which are over 100 years old. Then we took a the train to the highest point of the Islan which contain a World war II 9.2 inch gun emplacement and great views including the Perth skyline. We then had supper in Freemantle and observed the night life before heading south to Bunbury for the night.
