On the way from Margaret River to Albany, we stopped off near a place called Walpole where there is a superb forest full of amazing Tingle Tingle trees. These trees are MASSIVE, growing up to 60m in height, and 20m round the base. There’s a tree top walk that you can do there called ‘The Valley of the Giants’ which consists of a woodland walk (Ancient Empire Walk at ground level) and a suspended metal walkway taking you to 40 metres above the ground where you can admire the outstanding beauty of these wonderful trees from an excellent & unusual viewpoint. It was a lovely day - slightly cool, but with lots of sunlight filtering through the leaves and branches. There weren’t too many other peeps there at the same time as us, which was great ... read more

Wa-Hey! Got the most fantastic email out of the blue from Dina Poo Shoes asking if I was still in Sydney and whether I fancied a meet up with her and Lenny Clown Boy while they were on their jolly hollies!

The beats sounded good and phat, ... read more

“Rock, Olgas, Kings Canyon” med Sahara Adventures (dag 2 af 3). Tidlig morgen (kl. 03.45) saa vi paa stjerne - der var et hav af dem - og vi saa blandt andet sydkorset. Kim, Kirsten, Tobias, Jonatan og Cecilie besteg Uluru - en udfordring som bestemt var anstraengelserne vaerd. Spiste frokost paa campingpladsen kl. 10.00. Herefter fortsatte vi til Kings Creek, hvor vi skulle overnatte i telt den naeste nat. Samlede braende til baal og aftensmad i oernenen i ulidelig varme. Ved ankomst tog vi en tur i poolen - temperaturen var 41.5 grader i skyggen! Karl Johan tog en helikoptertur over omraadet. Efter mad over baal gik vi til ro kl. 21, vi sov ude i det fri med stjernerne haengende som et flot taeppe over os. Senere paa natten traek det op til uvejr, ... read more
