Hello everyone…Happy Easter! Hope your all ok… we have been having some lovely weather here, and have heard that the snow has gone in the UK and now its up to 17 degrees in the North East!!! That makes our temperature of 35 degrees yesterday look crap! Haha. So we are still in Woolgoolga and have had a reasonably busy week… Ant has been working hard, with John, to pass his Scuba Qualification. I don’t know if the news traveled so far as home but there was a huge earthquake in The Solomon Islands (north of Oz) and the whole [View Full Entry]

The day we left Port Macquarie was terrible weather… looked out of the window and it looked like Britain! Was still warm but chucked it down all day…we were glad we had done the bike rides the day before and were due to have a few hours on the bus today anyway. We watched “Castaway” in the hostel then got a free shuttle to the bus stop. So we set off on the bus to a tiny town just outside of Coffs Harbour called Woolgoolga (Anthony still can’t pronounce it) where John n Steph live. We saw lots of kangaroos [View Full Entry]

Managed to drag ourselves out of bed at 5:40am to get ready and pack in the dark, left the big posh hostel and walked over the road to the bus stop. We caught the bus from Sydney and left the big city (which we were slightly glad about, as we wanted to see the 'real' Australia.) For the price we paid for the bus tickets ($289 for the 6 month pass) the buses were well organised, on time and had loads of leg room! It took about 6 hours to get to Port Macquarie but the journey went so fast [View Full Entry]

So its finally hit me... we have made it to Australia... suppose the moment was when we went for a walk past the Sydney Opera house this morning!! Any way i'll rewind a bit to tell you how fantastic Hong Kong was... after the 12 hour flight we couldnt be bothered to try and find our way around the massive city at night but luckily enough for us we jumped on the free hotel shuttle (which was very handy n must have saved us loads on taxis) and we started asking 2 english couples about where to go in Hong Kong.
