Wow we’re so glad we decided to head up to Northern Territory to see Ayers Rock, it’s pretty impressive! We crossed into NT (third state in 2 weeks) & all we could see was desert, desert & more desert! After crossing the border from SA the speed limit went from 110kmh to 130kmh, Dean decided to see if Jock Patch could handle it, he made it to the 130 but don’t think he could have lasted too long without something falling off! It was a pretty co...

Ok, ok, ok I know we're writing this blog about two months after we've been in Perth but just bear with us and we'll get you updated on all of our goings on in Oz. There's no stopping us now we have a new netbook! We landed down under on March 15th 11, flew through immigration and got reminded just what it was like in a 'normal' country….. Clean toilets (no squat toilets!), no tuk tuk's & no Asian guys screaming at you to stay at their hostel! Everything w...
