So often I have come to sit down and type the next installment of my journey. and i get so far then one thing or another causes me to stop. The last few times i have come to type i have been stopped by the fact that i have so much now to catch up on and that events in my own mind are now confused. The last update was on my arrival in Dowerin and even that was entered three weeks after the date. I am have now left Dowerin and I can be found, though only for this [View Full Entry]

I know, its been a while. So the last you know is that I had purchased a car. A Ford Falcon Wagon 1994, estate to you and I, white, with four wheels and a steering device.... for that is all I know about cars. On the Friday night (12/12/2008) I celebrated with the hostel massive. I hadn't planned a big night because we were planning on heading to the Full Moon party the next day. However, drinks at the hostel led to drinks at the pub and then at someones house. 11am the next morning I rocked up at the hostel [View Full Entry]

Since arriving in Margaret River it became clear that a car is a neccessity in this part of the country. The public transport is much like back home. I cant even walk to the beach and everything else is out of walking distance too so I've been somewhat stuck in this small town. From Wednesday I've been looking for a car and on thursday I thought I had found a van to buy but when i took it for a check over on the friday the car mechanic told me he wouldn't touch it. I asked about even as short term [View Full Entry]

I've been in hiding at the Wanderer Inn, Bunbury for the last week. To avoid being detected I had to limit email, facebook and blog updates. It was hard but a necessity to keep my identity hidden... the consequences... well that doesn't bear thinking about! But now I've emerged and headed south to Margaret River where I can live it up in the land of the vineyard. Well almost true. I was less in hiding and more just plain lazy. I'd arrived in Perth on the 29th November late after my flight was delayed twice, first from a thunder storm and [View Full Entry]

I left Central Sydney YHA this morning and waddled over to the Glebe... Yes waddled! I have accumulated rather a lot of stuff in the last week which means I'm now carrying another bag. The hardest part is to actually start moving and then slowly gain momentum as i'm loaded down like a donkey. The result... a rather embarrassing waddle. Anyway.... The trip is continuing to go well. On Thursday I went to the Sydney Wildlife World. Being in the city has meant I haven't seen much of the Aussie Wildlife appart from the bats and as well as a number [View Full Entry]

G'day I decided to start a blog as much for myself as for anybody following my travels in Aussie. It stops me clogging up the facebook post board with all the details most wont be much interested in. Also for those who *gasp* dont have facebook (only kidding) So I'm 3 days into the aussie adventure, and on my second full day. I avoided the long walks I undertook in the first 2 days after waking up stiff and with my legs a bit wobbly as I made my way down to breakfast - a good enough reason for a chill [View Full Entry]
