So it brings me to today we did about 500k in the van the weather is getting very hot we're in the tropical region now of the the tropic of Capricorn 27 degrees average no clouds for the past 3 days and it's bloody winter here! I'm currently in an amazing rest area just on the beach just had my 4th mug of goon and a fag I'm smoking roll ups I did buy some duty free fags in Singapore but there gone now and fags here are £9.50 a pack if your lucky! Finished my book today. Tomorrow we will another big drive then we will arrive to the great barrier reef and the Whitsunday island might take a sailing trip round the islands and go snorkelling in the reef bought myself a decent snorkelling set Gunnar get some shut now cos I've been updating this blog for the past two hours it's been hard to remember everything it's seems like a blur since I arrived . Ok that's it for now speak soon much love joe supertramp (that's my new name)
