Sydney!!

Hi all! arrived in sydney last night after 3 weeks with the van.Dropped it off at sydent depot last night. Had an amazing road trip, we drove 3600k's in all! The great ocean road was amazing, sooo beautiful, never seen anything like it. we stopped in melbourne for 6 days, really lovely city.Went on neighbours tour, sooo cheesy but amazing! Went to Ramsey St and then to the neighbour night party, met some actors, including DR.K!! He perfomed with his band and they were actually amazing!!!

We managed to get over to Tasmania for 4 days, could've done with longer but that was all we could manage. Soooo beautiful over there, Hobart was lovely, and we went down to Port Arthur, and all up the east coast, which was lovely.Went on a night time penguin tour! so cute, tiny little penguins, that all come waddling back onto land after a day at sea fishing. They dont have any knees, thats why they waddle!!! Luckily the crossing over to tassy and back wasnt too bumpy!

The trip along from Melbourne to sydney was fab too, stopped at some lovely caost along the way. We went on a whale watching tour at Jervis bay, saw 2 humpback whales, mother and calf, was amazing, so beautiful. we went so far out to sea to find them and it was really choppy, lots of people being sick!! The 'grand pacific drive' from wollongong to sydeny was beautiful too, at one point you are driving on a bridge curving round the cliff edge right over the water, amazing!

Got some time now to chill out and explore sydney.

Be in touch soon.
