It's hot hot hot in Australia now. I'm glad we visited in their late spring.
I thought I'd post some random images of folks enjoying the outdoors.
I know we sure did!
The next 7 images were captured on
various bike trips from the University to the
Indian Ocean and then down to
Fremantle,
about a 9 mile bike ride one way.
The little building below sits in the Swan River.
I'm unsure of its purpose, but there were always people stopping
to be photographed on its boardwalk.
I might have mentioned that our trip to the Outback produced very few sightings of kangaroos.
We were told if we wanted to see kangaroos,
we should go to Pinaroo Valley Memorial Park,
a well kept cemetery with lush grounds and gardens.
Well, we were not disappointed!
There were dozens and dozens and dozens of 'roos' and their 'joeys' hanging out.
Or in some cases,
wanting to get out of the paparazzi's sight.
But there is always one in the crowd
who wants to be a star!
Love those 'roos'!
Later, my friends.
(And we're halfway through January!)

Fun photos. That little house at the end of the boardwalk looks like a face sticking its long tongue out.
such fabulous photos!!!!
Awwww, those kangaroos are just adorable, Reena!
a poser roo - cool
I watched a documentary about how they have become a problem in some suburban areas.
wow wow wow....that cottage and boardwalk is my favorite....but ohhhh those kangaroos :)
Cute little joey. These are wonderful shots, Reena.
Amazing Animals. Great post.
So many great photos. I LOVE the one of the house at the end of the boardwalk. So different and what a great photo.
Hugs~
This is gorgeous! Love the hut at the end of the boardwalk.
Fabulous color in your always-fabulous scenes....and I LOVE that boardwalk to "wherever"!
Wow Reena ! I love the photo with the kangaroo (how long did you wait to get this well spotted and so cute shot?). The photo with the little house brings tranquility and reminds me of Sweden, strangely (probably because of the wooden built) and the yellow sky on 2 of your photos is amazing. I long for a warm sky above my head….Thank you!
Having viewed this great collection of photographs, I somehow feel as if I was along on the trip!
Wow what a awesome adventure! Great shots!
Just caught up with all your Perth shots Reena.. You did Perth proud :) brilliant images. So glad you found Pinaroo and the kangaroos, you know it's literally five minutes walk away from where I live, it's where I take all my kanga shots when I visit my Mum and Dad there. So happy that you loved Perth, you would love it right now with all the Fringe festival shows going on.
What a great trip! This post belongs in a travel magazine.
All of your photos are beautiful. I especially LOVE two of them. The one with the fishing boats and gull flying in foreground and the the little building over the water.
