Actually, the whole trip was frustrating from an astronomical point of view. In addition to this little hiccup, I also wanted to watch the sun set over the western ocean (it may seem trivial, but coming from the east coast I've only ever seen the sun rise over the ocean). First attempt we were down at Scarboro and the sun set perfectly behind Rottnest Island (d'oh!). The next time the clouds came in over the horizon in time to block the view (double d'oh!).

I gave up and went to the pub.
