Firstly...photos are finally up...tomorrow/the next day/in a week...it's all the same to me! Hope you all had a great Christmas, I did! I'm in Bunyip, east of Melbourne, it's a little country town- lots of farms, snakes and tractors! Went surfing on Phillip Island a couple of times with Amy and her cousin, but I didn't even get in the water the second time cos it was FREEEEEZING!! Even when the weather is warm here the sea is cold, it's very different from Queensland! But we had sun and warm weather for Christmas, and it was very strange having a BBQ on Christmas Eve and sitting outside on Christmas morning! Spent Christmas with one side of the family and Boxing Day with the other. Apart from that...have been helping out with Christmas preparations, hanging out with ... read more

After my awesome last morning on the Sunshine Coast, at Eumundi Markets, I went to Brisbane and stayed the night there, before getting on a BUS (!!) to Melbourne the next morning! My friend Jackie showed me around a bit, so I've got some photos for you...... read more

I can't believe Eumundi, one of my favourite places isn't on the locations list on here! The markets there are apparently the biggest in Australia! They are pretty big... Went there a few times (mainly for the free food samples!) I spent waaaaay too much money the first time on clothes!! And ginger fudge...The original markets were all products made/grown by the stallholders. There's loads of clothes, food (FREE SAMPLES, did I mention?!) and random hippyish stuff! And some good music around too. On my last day, a few of us from the hostel hired a car and went there which was a really good way to say goodbye to the sunshine coast. It was hard to leave Cotton Tree Backpackers though, it was such a family there and I had been living there for 2 ... read more

We did a trip to Noosa National Park one day, to go surfing, but it wasn't very good surf so we just went for a walk and a swim. The beaches there are beautiful and much quieter than Maroochydore- no lifesavers and kids and surf clubs there! Yeh again...not much to say except the photos that will be added tomorrow...... read more

Well I had to put the location here as Coolum Beach beacuse Mount Coolum isn't on the list (did go to Coolum Beach once though!) and there will be a lot of photos from Mount Coolum although not much writing. We went to the top (it's not very high!) at sunrise and sunset and it was beauuuuuuutiful!... read more

On my first day in Maroochydore, I went to the Glasshouse Mountains with Amy's friend Pip. It was awesome because I was so freaked out by being in a town again! We went to Mount Ngungun, the view from the top was beautiful. It's really flat farmland and the mountains seem to have been dropped from the sky! Or this (copied from the internet): "Tibrogargan was the father of all the tribes and Beerwah was his wife, and they had many children. Coonowrin, the eldest; the twins, Tunbubudla; Miketeebumulgrai; Elimbah whose shoulders were bent because she carried many cares; the little one called Round because she was so fat and small; and the one called Wild Horse since he always strayed away from the others to paddle out to sea. (Ngungun, Beerburrum and Coochin do not ... read more
