Two Rocks to Mindarie

We struggled to get going after a late night packing following arrival in Perth on 14/4/17 (Good Friday), leaving the house at 9am, the journey to Two Rocks took an hour longer than expected because of a replacement bus service on the armadale/thornlie lines put in place due to track work over the Easter long weekend. This meant that we missed connecting trains and busses. We began walking a little before midday, a very late start indeed.

Two Rocks has a nice boat harbour and is named after the two large rocks on the beach.

Soon we were back on the beach though. People like to drive on the sand it seems:

But it’s not always a good idea!

As the sun began to  set, we began to get tired:

It was a relief to arrive at Shore Haven and its cafe:

My companion decided she would catch an uber to our accommodation. I walked on to Eden Beach, and then Jindalee…..

…. and finally on to our accommodation at Mindarie.
