Hi Everyone! So we are now in Perth, after flying from Cairns via Uluru (two days). Uluru is amazing!!! It's a truly breathtaking place, and we couldn't believe how beautiful it is in the flesh after seeing so many photos!! We went on a two day safari, which included a hike around the Olgas (Kata Tjuta), champagne at a sunset viewing area, a very cold night in a tent (!!!), and a very early (5am) start to watch the sunrise at Uluru as we walked around its massiv...

Hi all! We are just in Cairns now, been here for a few days after we sadly said goodbye to Bert!! (The Campervan!) Cairns is Very warm! Considering it is Winter!! So we're doing a bit of sunbathing and chilling out until we hop over to Uluru (Ayers Rock) tomorrow morning!

It's suprisingly spacious also!!! We picked it up in Sydney and headed straight for the Blue Mountains. The views and scenery there are amazin...

Hi all! Just a quickie cos we're not sure when we will next get the internet! The flight from Fiji to Melbourne was good but long, stopping in New Zealand. Although we were only in Melbourne for one night, but we loved what we saw of it! We met some really friendly people there and found that it was quite similar to England with Victorian style buildings. Sydney is also great. The city is a nice size, and the similarities with England are quite suprising. The ...
