Australia at Last

---

Hello Everyone

At last we've got around to blogging from Australia. Sorry for the delay and finally we've also managed to get some pictures attached. So in breif we've been here for three weeks now so thats quite a lot of ground to cover, here it is in breif.





Arrive in Sydney, spend one night in the town and take in all the sights. Aka Cathy's brilliant picture of the Sydney Opera house. Then fly down to Melbourne for Neighbours night and check out the local art gallery etc. Then back to Sydney where we got on the Oz experience bus. From there we went to barrington tops national park to spend the night. Then we went to a surf camp for a day where we learnt the basics of surfing. Managed to stand up a few times but not a natural. Then up to Byron Bay, a very cool little surfing village. Spent a few nights there and went out to this club called Cheeky Monkeys more than a few times. Then onto a place called Surfer's Paradise which was the worst place i've been travelling. Pretty commercial and attracts the worst kind of tourist. However only spent a couple of nights there and went to Wet and Wild theme park. Then caught the bus to Brisbane which is where we are now. (deep breath). Oh yeah and on the way to Brisbane we did some Zorbing. Zorbing orginally came from New Zealand hence Zealand Orb, Z orb. Some guy invented a big ball for people to walk to work in, however it didn't work that well so instead they fill it with some water, put people in and push them downhill. Was really good fun.







Brisbane is cool and today we're off to check out the sights. We've also booked up our entire trip ahead of us and have some pretty cool things such as Whit Sunday Islands sailing to look forward to.
