My flight out of Perth didn't leave until late at night, so what better way to spend my last hours than on a boat?
The Swan River looks like a lake, but maybe I'm just bad at recognizing bodies of water.
Also, it's a salt water river. This Texan was confused.
However, this meant that we got to see dolphins!
This also means that sharks sometimes sneak into the river.
I cast aside my fears and tried my hand [or legs] at water skiing.
Ehhhhh.
I am not the most naturally athletic person, but I am also pretty competitive and stubborn. I gave myself three tries to get up so that I would not spend too much time embarrassing myself.
Let's just say that after three tries I was back on the boat sunbathing.
Will says my effort was good and that I pretty much got up on my second try. I am determined to do better next time!

Aw, Perth, I have such mixed memories of thee!
This looks like fun -you did better than I, I don't thinK i would have tried. water sports aren't really my thing.
Salt water river... I'm so confused. That photo of you chilling on the boat is super cute though :)
please promise to stuff me in your bag next trip to australia.
i probably would suck at water skiing too....only because i insist on wearing the triple-thick lifevest. HATE deep water!
so desperate to get on /near the water!
i lOVE water skiing. how fun! that green bikini is really cute
That's awesome. Glad you gave it a try.
So awesome! It looks like paradise!
uhh i've been water skiing since i was about 7 but there is no way ever you would get me to do in in a body of water where there might be sharks! no way!
I LOVED waterskiing as a child! We did it every summer! A few years ago I tried again...and realized that my "center of gravity" had drastically shifted since I was twelve and I was no longer able to get up on skiis!
But hey...sunbathing is awesome too!!! :)
