A selfie of four people grinning at the camera. @az's partner, a white woman with really cool bright pink hair and glasses, Kristina, a white woman with short brown hair, me, a white man with short brown hair and a red beard, and @az, a white non-binary person with brown hair.

Met the extremely lovely @[email protected] and their equally lovely partner tonight! We went to the Japanese place that's just around the corner from where we're staying, and while it was quite tasty, surprisingly the place we went to in Midland the other night was better.

Final step count for the day is 17.5k steps, 13.43km. Ded.

A photo of part of a beach, with absolutely blue crystal clear water and a cloudless sky.

A photo of a quokka, low to the ground holding its front up with one paw.

A photo of a quokka standing upright on its hind legs looking directly at the camera.

The same quokka as the previous photo, still on its hind legs but with its head lower and looking off to the right, as if it's no longer interested in me.

Today's activities were Rottnest Island and quokkas!

You could not have asked for a more perfect day, it's been completely sunny with an absolutely glorious breeze, and we've walked 13k steps/10 kilometres. Currently just chilling while we wait for the ferry back to the mainland.

A photo of three people sitting around an outdoor pub table. Me, a white man with a short red beard and an *ahem* very receding hairline, Kristina, a white woman with short brown hair, and @burgerdrome, a white man with longer hair that's pulled back and big beard that's been plaited, who is throwing the shaka sign.

Tonight we met up with @burgerdrome for dinner at the pub around the corner from where we're staying!

A photo of a tall platform up in the air with an orangutan sitting on it, with its arm crossed and what looks like a pale blue blanket or something pulled over its back and head.

Today we went to Perth Zoo, which to be honest was very underwhelming. We did get to see an orangutan sitting with its arms crossed and a blanket or something over itself keeping an eye on everyone though. There was a also section with a bunch of those little monkeys in it, I don't remember what sort, but they were absolutely zooming around and yelling at each other, which was fun to watch. After that we wandered around the CBD a bit and then headed back home because we were pooped. I took a handful of photos but nothing amazing.

A photo looking upwards at the outside of the Museum of Western Australia, with the old brick building that looks like it's from probably the late 1800s/early 1900s sitting below a modern building, but there's a big vertical gap between the two. Very Independence Day vibes.

A photo of a massive statue of... uh... one of the really long-necked herbivore dinosaurs that is a classic and everyone knows, whose name is escaping me right now. It has brown skin and is absolutely towering above the rest of the exhibits and people around it.

Today we walked to the art museum which was fantastic (I took some photos with the DSLR, processing will come later), and then went to the Museum of Western Australia which is REALLY good, and massive and we didn't actually end up going fully through all of it because we wanted to get home and chill before heading out to see @ohthyme.

There's a newer part built on top of an older building, and from street level it honestly looks like the new part is somehow hovering above the old, it's such a cool effect. Also, it's not a real museum unless it has a GIANT dinosaur, and this one definitely delivered.

A photo taken from my seat looking down the length of the plane, we've only just started boarding so there aren't many people on it yet.

We are on a plane! Off to Perth to see @burgerdrome and some other non-fedi friends.

A wide-angle photo of six people sitting around a somewhat messy music area in our office. I'm on drums, we have someone on bass guitar, two guitarists, a keyboardist, and a vocalist.

Yessss, jam session was excellent! We had a group of other people who were using the space just before us and some of them stayed back and ended up playing with us as well.

I turned out to be the only drummer so only played that, but got some compliments on it which I was stoked about! Especially given that the other people were waaaay above my level in terms of guitar or bass skills, haha. They were actually playing some songs, none of which I had the remotest idea of how to play on drums and some of them which I hadn't even heard, but I was able to put down a good beat at the right speed and it worked out really well. We even ended up doing some bluesy-sounding thing at the end where I did a shuffle beat and it sounded fantastic!
