Vivs Travels
Final Postcard from Aussie:
Flew back to Sydney from Cairns with the very Virgin Pacific Blue whose staff kept everyone amused for the whole flight.
In Sydney I met up with the lovely Spike ( a fellow traveller I met up the coast) and briefly saw Helen again, it's still strange seeing someone 20 years later when you only remember each other as children! Had one last look at Sydney all lit up at night, the opera house, the harbour bridge...stunning, then it was all over and back on the plane to NZ where it is cold but fortunately not raining! It's a bit of a shock for the body going from 26C to 10C !!
I have to confess that I was not particularly fussed about visiting Aussie and I really only went to meet up with Helen again, but I had a brilliant time, I partied my way up the East coast and met so many cool people over and over again... I nearly stayed! However I must admit that I didn't learn that much about the country itself like I have about NZ. So I am going to go back sometime and discover the outback and get a bit more culture.
It was great travelling again and I've been really inspired by all the people I met, the only trouble being that I now have so many more places I have to visit in the world... I might not be back for some time....!
