G'day mate and how ya going? Again it's been a while since we updated, almost a month we can hardly belive it! Well we left Cairns on the 11th of August headed for Darwin on the top road. Up here there are 200 million people and 270 million cattle!!!We spent 4 days covering almost 4000kms on the big red Desert Venturer bus. We set across the Atherton Tablelands and learn't the words to Waltzing Matilda (glad to give you a rendition when we speak!) and Emma's ...

Arrived in Brisbane on the 24th (not the 22nd!) and headed straight out to Morton Island and the Tangalooma Wild Dolphin resort. Spent 5 idilyic days in an amazing villa on the beach. Had a couple of days of heavy rain but other than that the sun was shining and perfect blue sky's! On our 2nd night we had the amazing oppertunity to hand feed the wild dolphins. The first dolphin came to the resort in the 80's, attracted to the fish around the jetty that were at...
