Australia Zoo - Home of the Crocodile Hunter

Saturday, 15 Nov 2008 | Views [510]

How lucky am I to have landed up going to Australia Zoo on Steve Irwin Day.  When I found out it was Steve Irwin day I did think it was going to be jam packed & not so enjoyable as it turned out it was the best possible day that I could have gone ... Read more >

Reconnecting in Hervey Bay

Sunday, 9 Nov 2008 | Views [446]

Hervey Bay had little to do with seeing the place & much more to do with meeting up with family that I have not seen for an age which turned out to be absolutely stunning.  As my aunt & uncle had a student/teacher from China staying with them ... Read more >

Sunday, 2 Nov 2008 | Views [341]

First stop was Townsville - the gateway to Magnetic Island which gave me my first taste of carrying my backpack as I had about a 15 minute walk (turned into a 30 minute walk because I went the wrong way & got a little confused) to get to my yucky ... Read more >

Cairns & Tropical Far North Queensland

Arrived in sweltering Cairns at 10.20pm where the humidity said hiya as I walked out of the airport terminal & trickled down my back while I was trying to unpack the basics in the dark to have a quick shower and get to bed at the Bohemia Resort.  ... Read more >


The Amazing City that is Sydney

Tuesday, 14 Oct 2008 | Views [301]

Well I got to Sydney and had the pleasure of staying at a friends flat (they were unfortunately in Perth & New Zealand so I never got to see either of them which was a crying shame) but it meant that I got my own space for 3 nights.  At this point ... Read more >

Saturday, 11 Oct 2008 | Views [640]

To finish off my mini adventure in Coral Bay I decided to head around the coast on my last day to check out the reef shark nursery.  I had tried the previous day after my last post but it was really windy and the water was soooo choppy so I could see ... Read more >
