Hello everyone....

Well, I thought I'd write my final blog in Manly, Sydney.... before I leave for my tour around Australia.

We arrived on June 7th 2008, worked since the 10th June 2008 and now we're all done and recouperated our funds for the 2nd half of the travelling! Feels strange having finished work and settling down for a couple of months, but it is has worked out perfect i.e. leaving at the right time. Had a huge argument with the owner of our apartment and ever since then he has been a complete cock, so good riddance to all that. Pretty much done everything in Sydney and the Northern beaches, made loads of friends, had a laugh at work, mastered the art of bodyboarding and had some quality nights' out.

So.... the next part of the journey begins.... leaving here on Sunday 25th August 2008 and heading straight up the coast to the warmer weather.... can't wait to be laying on a beach 24/7 and relaxing! First stop is Port Maquarie and then we're just going to keep going North up the East coast.

Anyways, that's about all for now... just a short update to what i'm up to.... pretty much aimed at those who have been s*** at being in contact (you know who you are).

Oh and the luggage is growing as always, managed to throw away loads of stuff, but as always, as one things gets thrown out a new thing is bought! Including fishing rods and bodyboards! ha.

Hope everyone is all good... keep in touch.

Much love,
