Travel. Because; why not?
Hidden up in the hills, east of Perth, resting among residential housing is Lesmurdie Falls. It took 35 mins for me and the pups to drive from Fremantle to the top of the falls, where the trail starts. We turned up at 10.30 ish, and the carpark was full. Lucky I was in Frank the …
In my last 2 years in Perth I've come to know Fremantle Markets quite intimately. I live a 5 min drive away and am fortunate enough to have half day work day on Friday, so I can usually head down there and beat the big crowds. Here are some of my favourite parts of Fremantle Markets! …
Another day, another hike with the pups. Today it's Bold Park, a 437 hectare patch of bushland, located in City Beach, north west of Perth. It boasts beautiful views of the city from the Reabold Hill Lookout. Unfortunately, Perth decided to be super hazy the day we visited. Thanks Perth! Moving right long! There were so many …
Another day discovering nature with the dogs! The Spectacles Aboriginal Heritage Trail is located south of Perth in the city of Kwinana. It was super easy to find and Google maps got me there easily... unlike Bells Rapids.... The tracks were super random. There were ranger tracks and walking tracks and they all looked the …
Bells Rapids is a hike in the Swan Valley which follows a scenic section of the Swan River, which by my garmin is about 4km long... but I took a few detours. I found Bells Rapids on the Life of Py blog when researching good places to take the dogs on hikes. To get to …
Bright and early Sunday morning (well... 7am... but we were feeling a bit dusty after a night out on the beverages) we were up and getting ready to head to Rottnest Island! Matt was not in a good way. After a tactical spew (gross) and a few panadol (both for Matt) we were off! We …

We were heading down to Rockingham to see the local wildlife! First up was a cruise around the marine park to spot some dolphins with Rockingham Wild Encounters. We found a mum and her calf. They hung around the boat for a while, then we picked up some speed so they could dive through the …
On Saturday we drove to our mates house in Caversham, ready for a day in Swan Valley - a birthday wine tour. We stopped at Garbin Estate, Entopia, Swanbrook, Ugly Duckling, Lancaster (a favourite), Margaret River Chocolate Factory, the Providore and Ironbark Brewery. It was another huge day. We stayed at our mates in Caversham …
Our flight home from NSW was a bit stressful. We had organised a couple of friends of ours to help us out; one was picking up us, the other our dogs. We were rushing to make sure we made it home, and then to the wharf in time. We made it with time to spare! …
Matt's cousins had just moved over from the US so we decided to take them to Fitzroy Falls in Morton National Park, New South Wales. It's a spot that I have been to many times with family and friends. I had taken Matt a few years earlier. It's a beautiful spot. I love taking new …
