We arrived in Townsville on Tuesday 14th October and booked into a campsite for two nights. It was bit of a let down as it was a good five kilometers from Townsville and it was set on a very busy A road but we made the most of it. We took a drive into Townsville…… It was not what we where expecting! The town centre is getting ready to be rebuilt so most of the shops where shut or closing down. There was very little to do other than walk along the esplanade ...

We are now in Northern Queensland having left "Rosie & Tosanne" after a wet bank holiday weekend! We arrived in Cairns and spent a couple of nights there. Didn't really like Cairns it's full of backpackers! We picked up a hire car and went up the coast to Port Douglas, via Ellis Beach and Yorkies Knob. We spent a couple of nights in Port Douglas in our new tent and explored up to the Cape of Tribulation. On our way south we drove inland to the Ca...

We love Sydney, it seems like we've done so much in such a short space of time. We have explored the city, climbed the Harbour Bridge, been out to Bondi Beach and taken to ferry to Manly.

We stayed in the City for a few nights then joined our drinking buddies from Africa, Tony & Rosanne, out in Campbelltown. We must thank Tony and Rosanne who...

Yesterday we dumped the bags at the hotel and went straight to Darling Harbour on the monorail, we took a boat trip out into the ocean and watched Humpback Whales breaching. Today we are taking it easier, we are climbing up and over Sydney Harbour Bridge! We have a new mobile number whilst we a...

We have been in Bali nearly a week and the time has flown! After a hot, busy day in Singapore it's nice to be lounging by a pool again. We had five nights in a small hotel in Seminyak, up the coast a little from the main resort of Kuta but we have now moved right into the middle of Kuta and it's a crazy place. Our hotel is on a narrow one-way street with traffic going both ways! We have been to the Bali bombing memorial to pay our respects and we've been down t...
