Final week in Australia! [Vacationtime 1/x]

In March and April I went on a businesstrip to Australia. Before work I spent a day in Sydney with my brother and his family who live in New South Wales, then I had a weeklong meeting followed by a 4-day workshop in Victoria (with a weekend in between where I met up with a fandomfriend in Melbourne and did touristy stuff:-).

When work was done, I flew to Western Australia for a week of old fashioned traveling around on my own. (The big difference with my backpacking days Down Under being that I now stay in hotels instead of hostels;)
I managed to see and do so much each day, that I had to split my vacationreport into several parts. Here's the first picspam; exploring Perth and a daytrip to Rottnest Island, where I got to see quokkas!
