Ant drove for about 3 hours up to Port Macquarie, our longest drive yet and so we settled into our campsite for the night with a few glasses of vino. My grandparents have some friends in Port Macquarie, who they asked us to call in on so we gave them a call and arrange to pop round on the Saturday afternoon. In the morning we watched Bolt on the Itouch (wicked film!) and then I drove (see how excited I am about driving! lol) to the Koala park where Ant fed some ...

We arrived in Nelsons bay and had a chillout day again. The next morning, we went for a drive to a Toboggan park. I drove for the first time anywhere other than Jersey, which was scary at first but not really any different from driving at home, except a bigger vehicle. I haven't quite braved the motorway yet, but think thats probably for the best! lol... The toboggan park was cool and we just went round once. Ant went round fast and filmed it, but I wasn't sure ...

We arrived in Australia at 6am and were expecting for it to take a few hours to get through customs. But luckily, we picked our bags up and were just about to put them on when a guy came over and asked where we were from etc.... He was part of customs and after giving us a few tips on where to go, he signed our customs forms and pointed us through a different door where we walked straight out the other side! Result, total of 15 minutes!! We couldn't pick the van...
