The East Coast Oceania » Australia » Queensland
Ok, so it has been a long time, oops! After Darwin I flew to Cairns where it was raining the majority of the time I spent there. It was just a town really with not a lot to do other than visit areas of natural beauty surrounding so I headed off to Cape Tribulation for a day trip. This is where the rainforest meets the beach/ocean-its pretty cool up there, we did a boardwalk through the rainforest and stopped at Port Douglas on the way back as well as a few other little stops. Port Douglas is a very quaint little [View Full Entry]

So..after a week or so in Melbourne catching up with the family I flew to Alice Springs, its a strange little town but I finally found the sun! Had a day there before going on a 3day tour to Uluru, Kings canyon and Kata Tjuta. Had a wander round town and went to The flying doctors service which was interesting about there obviously not being much medical care out there/everywhere is so so so far away from anywhere else! Also learnt a bit about the first hospital there and a couple of other history bits. Then we headed off on tour-it [View Full Entry]

Grand Final Day!!! Oceania » Australia » Victoria » Melbourne
Well I arrived in wet and to be honest pretty cold Melbourne on Friday. Sydney had been beautiful blue sky and gorgeous sunshine at 8am! I spent the day chilling out with Rachel, Joseph and Eva and Michael when he got in from work! Then quiet Friday night catching up on a bit of sleep in preparation for Saturday! Saturday was all about decorating the house for the big match and preparing food, etc. Guests started to arrive about 1pm in plenty of time for kick off(not sure thats the correct term for Aussie Rules). The match was very close all [View Full Entry]

Shanghai Asia » China » Shanghai
So...I arrived yesterday. The Phoenix hostel is nice and there were two British and one Korean guys sharing my room. 2 of them have left now but they are all quite friendly with various experiences of travelling. I arrived at 11ish Tuesday 22nd so in the afternoon I went to the Shanghai History museum at the bottom of the oriental pearl tower! I also saw the Jinmao tower and Shanghai world financial centre (3rd tallest building in the world). I ate some food in the restaurant underneath my hostel last night which was nice-dumplings so not too adventurous but hey. I've [View Full Entry]
