right every one..
day started like any other, wake up, brush teeth and consider breakfast, although wasnt realy hungry cos when you have to spend a month in a car that might blow up at any moment and your with Nat, someone that you might wanna punch any moment , its easy to have those butter lies in your gut box.
so , the first day of travelling started witht the best news, we needed a battery for the car , so before we had left the sunshine coast it had already left a $102 hole that will never be replaced in my pocket. had to say good bye to nats Aussie mother, emotional times, well not for me , but for nat and her mum. its always uncomfortable when your in the middle of it , not crying , or even emotionaly attached to the situation in hand, just stand there, doo-do doo-do-do. all over? great , then lets f***ing go!!!...
started just on a standard drive to surfers paridice, nothing interesting about the drive , got to surfers about just before 5 , parked up, checkied in , showered, got the goon , got the noodles, chowed down on what was in out food bags , so bag noodles, and a tuna mayo mustard dorito crisp and plastic cheese tortilla wrap, was so so so tasty. mmmmmmmm. bet your all jelous!!. that was basically out night , weell apart from drink loads of goon and go to sleep at 10 30 pm , was great. loved it. way to start the drive ,eh?
day two... headed to spring brook natural park. went for a 5 km walk/hike over the canyon and the water falls. saw a water fall called ''BLACKFELLOW'', good old lazer to thoes who knew him best. then drove to nimbin, its the home of the weed in australia, but there was no pick up, just a stop in there so say goodbye to ''Santa'', and then back on the road for the continuation of the journey. drove past lismore and balina, nothing of interest, but just back to the free way to head down to newcaste to see 'D'. Nat decides to make tuna mayo sarniesin the car , yeah good idea at first , bu ttehn you got to think...''where to i put the tuna brine''?? at 110km/h down the free way in the black its hard to just place it in a plastic bowl and deal with later...well you would think... but no, it happened, , and one tiny bunp later, escallated by the speed of the car and the unstabiliyt of the suspention we had a tune mayo and bread fiasco. my god it was hiddeous, needed councelling after, or just to pull over and regroup the mess, then cassually continu..... Passed Coffs harbour, no hostel, drove to Port Marquire, no hostel, then drove to Tom Cat Creek, lovely rst stop. thats right , first night in the car. seats back , blanket over, sleep, done!! woke up early, realised it was too cold, went back to sleep till 8ish. woke up, clean teeth , head to servcie station , had a FCUKING HOT SHOWER!!!!! was really nice, chowed down on a subway brekfast and then casually started the drive again.
on the way down to newcastle early morning to meet up with 'dd'. got a nice burger and a glass of water, am on limited funds you know . but the funny thing was , walking into this nice bar i whispered to dee that if any one realised that every one is on their lucnh break but didnt realise that i slept in a car and showered in a f***ing petrol station the night before. makes you wonder what other people do 5 minutes before you meet them . ...hmmm.. said good bye to dee again in newcastle EN route to CANBERRA . i know i know i know that every one says not to go there but it is the nations capital and i wanted to see it ,...hmmmm(cough)!!! so on the drive and at this point i realise that im totally over Nats i pod and my one is not working , decided it aint going to charge, so looks like its repeat repeat for red hiot chilli peppers and delta f***ing keating? im just assuming thats what they all call themselfs nowdays. got to canberra, not a hostel to bee seen this late at night , so after 1 hour tour of the ''Nations Capital'' , thats a f***ing joke, its the nations s*** hole, we go to a rest are and then same game as before, wrap up warm , got to sleep , tho this time there was no sleep cos it was -3'c and was far to cold to sleep, what you mean i left my sleeping bag in the boot of the car, too cold to get it , so got up early , souldnt feel my toes and continuend to sit and wait for the blood to return to anty part of my bory, you could have flicked and extremities and it would have snapped off im sure of it . was that cold. so got up, went to the meuseum ,saw loads of aborigional art, some painting the houses of parliment , decided that was fine and left. started to check the tyre pressure and petrol oil water and on to MELBOURNE!!
this was a nice drive, long winding country roads for 4 hours, drove 450km no break no stop no rest, nat was asleep but was a nice drive. nice colours in the winter over here, greens , browns , yellows and gold blah blah blah blah , sound gay dont it . but it was nice , just as im about to change the driver seating , police pull me over, hello sir, just a random drink and drug test , have you been drinking today ...nope , ok blow into this and taklk into this ....done , passed , all clear. whoop. now i can start my heroine boat party haha!! but no mum if your reading this , i dont take drugs, i love the bible , and jesus is my saviour!x
