Recently everyone from the Ad Agency where I work took the day off and went to our local island in the Indian Ocean called Rottnest.
We spent the morning bike riding to a secluded bay on the other side of the island for a champage breakfast and snokelling in the crystal clear waters of Little Paroket Bay.
After lunch and way too many bottles of champagne, the afternoon was spent playing pool at the hotel bar and relaxing under the date palms until the boat returned way to soon and took us back to Port Fremantle

Because the limited of time, I couldn't circle the whole island, but chose the road across the middle of it. There were only two or three travelers on this road. I saw another face of the island.
The road was surounded by pink salt lakes, a strange color, right? Mallards and other water birds walked on the lakeside. They were enjoying their quiet time.

I found the Museum and Library a few minutes before my ferry was about to depart so didn't have time to explore. From the size of it though, I don't think it would take long!
