Hola All, Well certainly saw the penguins. It wasn´t quite what we expected as they were in burrows under bushes and spaced about 1m apart. We were hoping to see a large group out in the ocean. Actually quite a drive of about 400km to get there and ... Read more >

Shiver My Timbers

Wed, 5 Nov 2008 | By mogsie08-09 | Views [1136]

Perth was cold. Well, maybe that's not strictly true, but at just 20-22 degrees it was much colder than I've become used to and I had to dig out my long trousers and fleece! Goodness knows what I'd need if I came home right now - I've become such a softy ... Read more >

Off to Magnetic Island, The Witsunday Islands & the Town of 1770

Sun, 2 Nov 2008 | By swhateley | Views [430]

First stop was Townsville - the gateway to Magnetic Island which gave me my first taste of carrying my backpack as I had about a 15 minute walk (turned into a 30 minute walk because I went the wrong way & got a little confused) to get to my yucky ... Read more >

Bula Bula!!

Bula! Fiji is just like youd imagine Fiji to be.  The beaches are white and sandy, the trees are green and full of coconuts and the rain, which we enjoyed on a daily basis, was hot and wet.  Still, beacuse its Fiji, we didnt mind at all. Our time in ... Read more >

Back In

I went for the major travel foul and came back to the east coast on the same route I got out to the Red Centre. And I also learned from my past mistakes and hitched again with a random car full of strangers who were, once again, all Germans. This time ... Read more >

Beach party II: Fellowship of sandy rings

Sat, 1 Nov 2008 | By homeless_harry | Views [5066]

No sooner had I removed the last vestige of grit from private anatomical nooks and crannies, when some manical party machine decided to organise another 'fill up on intoxicants and sand' event. Yes, it was the only two other remaining Australians ... Read more >

Manning the fire hose.

Sat, 1 Nov 2008 | By homeless_harry | Views [2286]

Isn't it funny how your opinion of a place improves when your workload changes from boot camp to boy scouts. One minute I am legging it to and fro like I've just discovered the ability to walk, and the next, I am lounging around working on my tan.... Read more >
