This blog is for my friends around the world who ask ne what it is like where I come from, what the camping is like and the stuff I like to do in summer. A place I like and go quite often is Wellington Dam. It is about 30km from Collie in the south west. Collie is a mining town, they mine coal, but we are far enough away to not be bothered and close enough if we want supplies. Wellington Dam was originally built to supply drinking water for Bunbury, Busselton and...

Nehru was cremated near here as well and for a bunch of big shots I thought the place was not given the respect I expected. Just near there is the old walls to the city of Shahjahanabad... Thats right the bloke who built Agra. I told you...

I had to go back to Haridwar from Rishikesh to get the overnight train. It was the worst sleeper so far cos I was stuck on the upper berth again and in with 5 stinky Indian blokes. There is nothing here in Amritsar except the Goloden temple. Another of the "worlds holiest places" but this time holy for Sikhs. They are the blokes with turbans on their heads.
