Just back from visiting Mount Fuji and had such a sensory experience - gorgeous views! Actually went up to the 5th Station of Mount Fuji and could see for miles and miles across the Japanese Alps. Was a perfectly clear and sunny day so got to see the summit with all it's snow, amazing (so lucky to have had a clear sunny day, tour guide said it had been weeks of cloudy dismal weather - which i experienced yesterday). After the 5th Station the tour headed to a hote...

Just at Sydney airport and very sad to be saying goodbye to Australia, have had a brilliant last week here in Sydney and i've absolutely falling in love with the East Coast for sure - definately will be returning, still so much to see across the rest of the country :) Had glorious weather for the best part of the week, so made the most of the ferries and travelled across to Manly and Watson Bay, had very good chips & chicken salt on the beach (a must for any...

Finally reached Cairns and sad to say my Island Suntanner tour has ended...still having lots of fun, a few of the group are staying in Cairns for a little longer so the party's are to continue :) The drive from Airlie Beach to Undara was exceptionally long, 10 hour day on the coach but a very scenic journey - only a few 'hairy moments' on the one-lane (supposed) highway involving the coach and head-on huge trucks - survived thankfully, lol :) The swag-tents were...

Ended the day doing some serious partying with the group at the clu...

Well my arrival in to Australia was certainly adventurous, had a mad old couple sat behind me who decided an hour into the flight to pour their glasses of wine over the young couple sitting next to me for no real reason other than their chairs were tilted back?!? I tired to calm the woman down as apparently she doesn't like small spaces or flying but she was crazy, calling me a b**** and the couple very name under the sun - absolutely ridiculous behaviour really!...
