Meeting The Locals...

AUSTRALIA | Sunday, 9 Dec 2007 | By whippin_picadilly | Views [1167]

Down the Coast

AUSTRALIA | Sunday, 11 Feb 2007 | By dan-isaacson | Views [1571]

Seven Mile Beach I left Sydney in a thunderstorm that turned the entire sky bright orange. Which should have served a warning to the weather ahead. Made it to Seven Mile Beach late and setup camp. This beautiful stretch of beach would fit most of ... Read more >

Strewth

AUSTRALIA | Friday, 23 Mar 2007 | By wanderyears | Views [1970]

For once, we were organised and on the road quite early. The information gained in the boozer last night was so contradictory as to be of little use, so we made for probably the best source in any small country town – the gas station. Because motorists ... Read more >
