It's been a busy week since we arrived in Australia, which we started by spending four days in Melbourne.
It's a really nice city with lots to see. Spent a couple of days touring round the city. Then took a minibus out to Philip Island to wath the 'Penguin Parade' where Little Penguins come ashore at night. Also got to see koalas, Tasmanian Devils and hand-feed kangaroos and wallabies.
We caught a short flight to Sydney, which has probably been the best place so far. We've been to the Sydney Aquarium, viewed Sydney from above in the Tower, toured the Opera House and been on the ferry to Manly. We also caught the train out to the Blue Mountains for a day.
Tomorrow we get the Greyhound bus to Byron Bay. Rather than get up at first light we've opted to get the overnight service, saving us a night's accommodation but the gamble could backfire if we end up like zombies for 2 days.
Less than four weeks to go now, see you all later this month (unless we win the lottery!)
