Hello everybody

Well I've finally made my way to Australia. I'm staying in the surfside Coogee hostel, which is just off Coogee beach. I haven't done anything extreme yet, just getting myself organised. Got my bank account set up, an Australian vodafone sim card for my phone and I'm looking into changing my flight dates to September 09, and getting my tax file number.

The heat is extreme and I'm slowly changing color (more of a red than brown). I just been relaxing on the beach, swimming in the sea and going for a few walks.

Sydney is a big city so I've plenty to explore before I move on up the east coast to 'Coffs Harbour' on Monday 27th.

Bye for now

Mark
