And so begins my east coast adventure! I stayed in Darwin for a few more days until my flight. I met up with Richard and Bron for some food on the pier in the evening and in the day Richard and me had a few beers in a local bar (turned out to be a day time strip club haha) then we hitch-hiked our way back into town to chill at the lagoon. It had a wave pool which was fun and here was my first taste of a tropical downpour! I think the wave pool rose a couple of in...

Spent the night in Alice Springs..not a lot here and I think a night was about right. We were getting picked up at 6.30am to begin our epic long drive to Darwin.

Before work the next day I met up with Hannah at the town hall, we walked to Circular Quay, Botanical gardens and had a nice catc...

Still in Sydney and really enjoying it. I have done so much while staying here I don't know where to begin!
