Rottnest Island

We spent two days on an island off the coast of Perth called Rottnest Island.  There are no cars on the island and it is the only place you can find Quokkas (small marsupials about the size of a raccoon).  These things come right up to you and Chad even had one jump on his lap while we were drinking a beer at the local pub. 
We spent most of the time during the days riding our bikes between the amazing beaches on the island.  The snorkelling was outstanding here as well, but alas we had no camera for that...

Vermont - Growler Style
