Firstly, Hope you all had a Merry Christmas and HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!! We arrived in Manly which is on the out skirts of Sydney on the 23rd of December, where we had hostel accommodation booked. A really nice hostel with only a 30 second walk to the beach with surf, which we have been spending most of our time. The Ozzy summer has well and truly kicked in, and we are now living the beach life which we had been promised. So our Christmas was slightly different fro...

The Great Ocean Road Well before starting the Great Ocean Road we are pleased to say that a new member joined our gang and a friend Dan Littleton (another camper) joined us for the journey. The new member to the gang is Froane, she is a nice girl, rather large and robust though.... The truth is Froane is a Toyota Hiace poptop campervan, and is our new home for the forseeable future. The Great Ocean Road runs along the south coast of Australia from Torqua...

Today is the day we look for some part time work whilst we are staying her...

So our quick day and a half stop over in LA has gone well so far...Hollywood, check.. Santa Monica, check...which leaves us with an extremely tough day of sitting on Venice Beach tomorrow before our 8pm flight...its a bit of a shame its only going to be 27 degrees. We are looking forward to our 19 hour flight, or not as the case maybe. However we're sure it will be worth it in the end. So the next time you'll here from us we wiil be well and truly downund...
