Well I think its about time I did my blog about my week in Sydney staying with my amazing (tour guide) cousin Peta :) I arrived in Sydney fairly late on the Monday after the most horrific flight from Melbourne, honestly for anyone who hates flying this flight might have just pushed you over the edge... luckily I love flying so for me it was just a bit to rough. Anyway, I collected all my bags etc then went in search of Peta who I knew would be waiting outside somewhere... little worrying seeing as there were cars everywhere, people coming from all directions and I hadn't got any way of contacting her... luckily we spotted each other and all was fine. So as I said, it was a bit late but we decided to go ... read more

Well the road trip is now over :( it was the best 3 weeks ever. Here is just an update on what happened since last time. Day 12 - Airlie Beach The today was well good - we swam down at the lagoon and layed in the sun for a while. My tan had finally started to get better :) yay! That evening we had didgeridoo lessons which was so funny. I actually managed to play it quite well. After that we went and got ready, had a cold shower, had a BBQ, then headed for the clubs. Becky and Meri entered a wet t-shirt comp and Becky won which was so funny. We got loads of free drinks all night. Wehay!

Hey everyone!! So much has happened since the last entry so ill try explain as much as I can. So the last couple of days in Brisbane were fun, got all the stuff ready for the road trip, packed everything up and collected as much free stuff as we could find.. food, blankets, tents, sleeping bags - you name it, we found it!! Me and Rob walked down into the city on the last night and unfortunatly because he had a hole in his jeans we were unable to go to the casino... never mind! We said our good byes to the city and headed back to the hostel! Went out for a few drinks with everyone as a good bye party then crashed out in anticipation for a very early and hectic start. The Road ... read more

Hey hey :) Can't believe how fast time is going past!! Its crazy!! So a few updates since the last entry!! I have booked 3 days in Byron Bay which is about 2 hours south of Brisbane, should be really nice, weather is meant to be good!

G'Day ay!! Its my last day here in Western Australia, been here for a week now, staying with my cousin Tim and his Girlfriend Kate in Perth! The start of the week was a shock as I decided to come over on the 1st day in over 100 days since it last rained.. was crazy. The storm I landed in had flooded areas, traffic lights were down, people without power. Bad times!! So arrived in Perth, immigration and quarintine here is very strict.. they asked me all sorts of questions about the fact I declared my cookies and bracelet and also about where I was staying!! Turned out fine though. The week has gone really fast, i've done so much!! Kate and Tim have been amazing, letting me stay here, feeding me, taking me places and ... read more
