Bob and Nige-The World Tour 2006! (Fi & Jen)
Once upon a time in Australia bob and nige set off on the camping trip of a life time - and so the story goes.....
arrived at Dingos hostel the day before the trip with high hopes for a group of 8, fit, irish jokers! Spent the whole day waiting around with baited breath (and fi's perving glasses) to find out who would be lucky enough to be joining us for the next 3 days! By 4 0'clock things were certainly not looking good as the hostel was full with geeky looking girls and a bunch of gremlins from gimpsville! error!
4.30 - group meeting time! absoluitely gutted! Our group looked to be the dullest bunch imaginable - 4 german guys who spoke only to each other and only in German, a couple - b-o-ring!, and a girl that can be described as no other than a joanne layfield type! in other words the epitome of gimpishness!! Me and Fi were quick to double our alcohol purchases to get through the next few days.
day one - the group turned out, however to be a real treat and a real set of jokers.we were chuffed!! spent the morning cruising along the long streach of white sand, with the sun shining and the tunes blaring. stopped for a dip in Lake Mckenzie's clear waters - absolutely gorgeous!
by night time a terrential down pour hit. just our luck!! i couldn't actually see out of the windscreen it was so bad - talk about dangerous driving - drove to the campsite with my head hanging out of the window to see the road, with bob frantically blasting hot and cold air in every direction but the windscreen! luckily we made it in one piece, to find the other 4 groups setting up a shelter with all the tarps.
Turns out we chose the laziest group so as you can imagine we fit in a treat! whilst the others struggled in the rain we cracked open the tinnies and goon! (loving it!) A couple of hours, and several drinks later, the other groups were sitting around to civilized dinners, whilst we were struggling to keep a flame going, hold a cucumber and shelter under a tarp resting on the tallest persons head. absolute chaos!
finally we set about to partying - 50 drunken campers, 3 guitars, endless alcohol supplies and 5 sets of car speakers! the partying went on all night, complete with table dancing, kareoke and even the odd lap dance here and there!
Day 2- awoke with spillitng headaches to the campsite wardens going off on one. we were hearded together like naughty school kids to be warned about the 9'oclock, (ask yourself) curfew time! Whatever trevor!
spent the day crusing around the sights - morning swim in the creek, ship wreck and then the champagne pools. Broke the first rule in the guide book driving through trecherous parts of the island but luckily escapesd without being caught.result!!
on the second night we camped on the beach and spent the night chilling under the stars, watching the moon rise, and singing along to the guitar! ( very romantic!)
Day 3 - attempted to wake up for sunrise at 5.00am! as if! woke up afew hours later and set about washing up in the sea! breakfast i might add tasted of salt! not the best! Domimique - worst group member ever- failed to do a thing to help and instead sat herself down on the beach snapping photos of the rest of us hard at work - bob was fuming!!
drove back via lake wabby! which was gorgeous! spent the morning water wrestling, chasing cat fish and racing down the sand dunes, with our bikinis ending up everywhere but where they should be! all caught on video by the boys!! not the best!
Raced back to the ferry and kissed farewell to the group! Def the best thing we've done in Oz!!
