It's been a whole month since I wrote last so this updating is going to be a task... firstly, the most important thing - SPIDERMAN 3 IS OUT!!!! I'm so excited but I'm saving myself for when I get to Sydney (in 5 days or so) cos me and Keeran (my bro) are meeting Maya there and we can all see it together. So, after cairns, I went to a small rainforest village called Kuranda - yes it is actually in the rainforest amongst all sorts of wild things - mostly beautif...

It's gonna be a quick one - just came back from snorkelling on the Great Barrier Reef.... it was so amazing. I got a bit sea sick (well I felt really sick actually) on the way out there cos the boat was mega rocky. I feel like I'm rocking now!!

I found out a bit more info on the Alice Springs 'wierdness' that I felt - the guide told us that racism is a very big problem in many parts of Australia and Aboriginal people do not get the same...

So, we're in Alice Springs. Hardly got any sleep last night (one hour) cos I was making difficult decisions about what to send back home with my mum and what to keep. Luckily my backpack's quite light now but that's mainly cos it's hot here and I only need light clothes. I'm sure it will double in size when I get to cold N.Zealand.
