Cycle to the coast

Today I grabbed my bike again, earlier though today! And went for an explore.

I met Toni briefly, who I had met on the walking tour, and arranged to meet her tomorrow. Before shooting off along the distal bank of the swan river. I cycled through the university where there were some outstanding buildings and grounds. I visited the art gallery. It was modern art so some of the 'art' was a little questionable. When does someone colouring with crayons and using copious amounts of glitter stop being shit and start being art? 

I then glided through the grounds to find the England 2nd XI playing cricket against their Australian counterparts. After a while of watching paint dry, I mean cricket I set off to find Scarborough beach.

OH NO! I have forgotten my compass!! So I did what has lead me to ruin several times and went with my instincts. Amazingly I cycled in exactly the right direction and turned off at exactly the right time to get to Trigg beach. North of Scarborough beach. This beach was even more beautiful than the day before. With weathered sandstone rocks jutting from the shimmering blue sea at jaunty angles. It was spectacular. After a while of beach bumming I cycled down the coastline to Scarborough then city beach. Where it was the bikinis making these shorelines beautiful, leaving the sandstone out of it.

I continued my cycle and again enjoyed the best sunset yet from the banks of the swan before heading back for heaps of fun at the house with my new housemates.
