Everyone thought we were crazy for coming to the Northern Territory in the “wet season.” Naturally, being the rain attractors that we seem to have become, we weren’t really worried. What are we, made of soap? A little rain wouldn’t hurt us, right? Right. In fact, the wet season wasn’t really anything to be concerned about! Continue reading The Northern Territory: The Real and Rugged Australia It feels like a lifetime ago since our last post – I’ll do my best to take up where I last left off. Australia Day in Airlie Beach was fun, but nothing overly exciting to report…think of Whyte Ave on Canada Day, except that most of the crowd was international. We had a decently late night, Continue reading Nemo, Turtles and Sharks – Life on The Great Barrier Reef We arrived in Airlie Beach from Bundaberg nearly a week ago – it’s hard to believe how much time has passed already. Our first full day in Airlie was also fairly uneventful. We wandered around the town (of which there isn’t much) and spent some time at the Airlie Beach Lagoon. Now, this lagoon is pretty Continue reading Blown away in the Whitsunday Islands Quick! What do rum and turtles have in common? They’re both made in Bundaberg! After our hairy experience in Fraser Island, both of us were pretty fried and needed some alone time before heading to our next social experiment in the Whitsunday Islands, so we decided to stay in a smallish town called Continue reading Mmm…. I love Rum and Turtles It feels like we just got off some weird reality TV show/Gilligan’s Island experiment. Tag line: “One island. 10 people. One jeep. Four nationalities. How will they survive?” Standing in the sand blow in Rainbow Beach It all started off upon arriving in Rainbow Beach four days ago. We made it to our resort called Continue reading The Fraser Island Experiment Last I left off, we were on our way to Brisbane, aka “Brizzie.” Our shuttle van thingie dropped us off at a transit centre, and having been so relaxed and lazy in Byron, I hadn’t even considered where we would be dropped, or where we had to go to our hostel. Very un-kenna…but I am Continue reading Brizzie to Noosa Ok, starting to get caught up on blog posts here! We arrived in Byron Bay after a long bus ride with the surfaris tour. After picking up the kids of the owner at a house, and dropping off Danny and Kyle (our surf instructors) at their house, we were off to the hostel. We stayed at Continue reading Chillaxing in Byron Bay This post is only a week or so late, mostly because we haven’t had a spare moment to write it, we’ve been having too much fun! I have to say that the Surfaris trip was one of the most fun weeks of my life. It meshed so well with my personality – get Continue reading Surfin’ with Surfaris! Welcome 2010! Scott and I are both very excited to move into a brand New Year – 2009 was an interesting year for the two of us with many challenges and changes. Before I dive into the fabulousness of ringing in a new year in this amazing city, I have Continue reading New Years Eve in Spectacular Sydney Here we are, finally in Australia…where our gray abyss woes are supposed to end! NOT. We arrived in Sydney VERY early on Boxing Day, after an even earlier flight from Christchurch (which is two hours behind Sydney) feeling exhausted from lack of sleep. The flight was uneventful, except that we flew over lots of gray clouds Continue reading In the Land of Oz… |
