After surviving Khama Rhino and extracting Deb from sleeping in the back of the trustie backie (our 4x4) we made it to our next destination... Elephant Sands. Well what an aptly named place... complete with a resident herd of at least 30 elephants in ... Read more >

Getting into the swing of camping life

Mon, 3 Oct 2016 | By camilleandjamie | Views [649] | Comments [1]

It is day 6 of our adventure and while I sit here to recount the previous days, I marvel at the fact that there seems to be so much time in a day when you don’t get up with an alarm clock to go to work, but rather wake with the sun and sounds ... Read more >

I sit here writing this next to a crackling fire made by Jamie, under a canopy of giant gum trees and a sky full of brilliant stars.   Pumba wanders the campsite exploring any noises and smells as he goes.   We have fitted him ... Read more >

Many places and people have touched my heart...deeply. I've come upon another place that has done just that. It's my final day on Lord Howe Island, and it's only fitting that I tackle the island one more time with a magical walk. After packing my stuff, ... Read more >

Lord Howe vs. Norfolk

Fri, 23 Sep 2016 | By kiwiaoraki | Views [3334]

Lord Howe Island or Norfolk Island? It's a tough call even for me, having been to both islands. Both are magical, beautiful, and remote outposts of Australia. Darcelle says that's where the similarities end. Those who've been to one or the other might ... Read more >

Ball's Pyramid

Wed, 21 Sep 2016 | By kiwiaoraki | Views [1091]

My birthday has passed, yet today I’d receive another wish for my time on Lord Howe. As I made my coffee I offered to help Darcelle clean the house a bit but she said “I want you to enjoy Lord Howe” so I thought I’d get my stuff ... Read more >

Mt. Gower

Tue, 20 Sep 2016 | By kiwiaoraki | Views [1028]

I’m 32 today! And I don’t really know if I feel it or not. Unlike last year, my birthday wouldn’t consist of sitting warm and cozy by a fire whilst being shouted drinks at every turn. Today I’d get my hands and legs dirty and ... Read more >

Snorkelling in the Rain

Fri, 16 Sep 2016 | By kiwiaoraki | Views [1019]

Every dark cloud has a silver lining. That’s one of my favourite quotes, and that’s how it’d feel today. I set my alarm for 6:40 this morning but as I heard the rain batter the roof I knew this would be a great day for a lie-in, so ... Read more >
