Sydney and beyond...

Where do we start....its been so hectic lately! Sorry for the delay in this post coming out to you! We've been truely out in the middle of no-where....I guess you could call it the OUTBACK?!

Ok...So...Sydney catch up:
Sunday: The Red bull flugtag! This was amazing, such cool designs and some truely spectacular plummets! Bex and Carla got mega burnt which after a chilly few days wasn't a suprise!!
Monday: Took our little car to get registered in Bondi...a few mishaps but got there in the end! Had a lovely hour on the beach which was beautiful before the storm clouds rolled on in!
Tuesday: Caught the Manly Ferry over to the North Beaches and visted Manly beach! So much nicer than Bondi, much more chilled, WARM and we got our Macca's (Mc Donalds) 50cents ice cream! Yummm!
Wednesday: We escaped the hustle and bustle of Sydney! Went to Ikea and kitted out Brucie (the car) and headed off to the Southern East Beaches! Stayed in Coledale Beach, which was sooo pretty! Literally set up camp on the beach and had lush forested cliffs behind us! (Note if visiting, don't make our mistake and try to go to the (only) pub at 8.30pm....as it shuts much earlier!!!)
Thursday-Sunday: Kangaroo Valley! A place that really does live up to its name! This was a truely wild experience for us all! Were greeted by kangaroos, wombats and huntsman spiders(yuck) on arrival! Carla nearly christened a venomous red-bellied black snake with a bath of tuna juice on Friday morning!)
Spent our time hiking in  38C heat (silly but good excercise) saw a huge metre long lizard in the bush, and saw some breathtaking views especially of Fitzroy Falls and the general viewpoints around Morton National Park! Spent some time basking in the sun (que peeling) and in the seriously muddy dammed river!

Today we're in Nowra, trying to sort out our car warranty (yawn) and thenwe'll be headed to Canberra! Hopefully the rain will stop soon! (Can't complain its the first day for over a week!)

Pictures to follow!
Love to all!

  1. Hey guys, That is one seriously dangerous snake. Best if you keep away from them, and the funnel web spiders and the red backs and the box jelly fish etc etc Welcome to Australia. Catch you soon.
