Bula :)
We are now in Fiji and from what we can remember we have quite a bit to update you all on hehe - stupid oz didnt actually have many internet cafes!! ahh well... so...
we did end up going back to Surfers paradise on our second day in coolangatta - we had our first lye in in aaaaages which was nice and for lunch we went to an irish bar which had a pretty awesome view of the beach :) On the evening we went to the cinema to see pineapple express - proper funny!! The following morning we left the cleanest caravan park we had been to - sad times!! haha! and drove to byron bay - such a nice place - we drove up to the lighthouse which had some amazing views! we arrived in coffs harbour and chilled out as it was a big drive to sydney the next day!!
We woke up super early as we knew the drive would take between 7-8 hours... oooh one thing we did see at coffs harbour - we went to the toilet and on our way back to the van we saw wild kangaroos hopping along between the caravans and tents - mega cool hahaha :)
anyways... we arrived at sydney and found out about sightseeing for the next day - decided to do this 'hop-on-hop-off' bus thing we had done in Kuala lumper, malaysia. it was a good idea too - we saw so much of the city and BONDI :) all in one day! bondi was pretty awesome - just like torquay but bigger and nicer hehe. For anyone who would like to know... some of the sights we saw were... Central station, many museums/ cathedrals, star city casino, chinese gardens, oxford street, the opera house, harbour bridge and of course BONDI! It was the last night in our little home which we were quite sad about.
The next day we decided to head to blue mountains which was recommended... we headed there before we dropped our van off, it was freezing and wet all day - it sucked! but the mountains were cool and the stories behind them were interesting! we first went to Echo point (where the three sisters are) then to Govets Point where we saw a steep waterfall! We headed back to try and find our hotel in Sydney for the night - it took us aaaaages! - we finally arrived to find we had been upgraded for free haha love it!! penthouse suite and all - we dropped off our stuff and dropped our little home back to the rental company - sad times! We treated ourselves to a chinese that night and watched some TV which we hadnt seen for 2 weeks hehe
Yesterday we were off to our 8th country - FIJI! we had the most dodgest flight EVER, first our gate changed randomly then we were delayed waiting for other passengers for about an hour, during take off it was the bumpyest one ever which also lasted for ages, then to top it all off 2 seats in front of us caught fire!! we had to stand at the back of the plane just as the seat belt signs came on for our decent - luckly we arrived safley in Nadi Airport hehe! they said it could've been an electrical fault?!
Our hotel we are at now is pretty nice - right on the beach - we have decided that on thursday we are going to island hop for the last 11days - so we can see the whole of Fiji and get more out of our experience rather than stay here for the whole 2 weeks - even though we have a buff balcony etc... haha!
We went and wandered around nadi today and we got taken into this shop and given a kava ceremony by some fijians who were welcoming us as it was our first day - strange but way cool :)
Anyways thats about it and wooohoooo photos are currently being uploaded from back when we were in townsville (start of our campervan adventure) - enjoy :)
Miss you all lots and lots!!
mmmmwaaaaah xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
