from Alice spring to darwin!

No worries mate!!!


Hi you all!!!

We are running a bit late with our reports, this is the one of Coober Pedy! 9-10th of August
After that I have a report of the red centre. Good luck reading it ;-)

8.10am, sitting in the bus to Alice Springs. That’s the good thing when you have a small backpackers computer! We’re really driving in the desert and we had the most beautiful sunset from the bus, we stopped for some breakky (breakfast, ;-) the Aussies just love to cut there words)
We’re travelling with a really nice girl from Switzerland now, she’s also going up to Alice Springs, but tomorrow she flies to Brisbane and we’re hedding for the real outback J, sleeping under the stars, Uluru …

This morning we left Coober Pedy around 6am by Greyhound bus.
We had yesterday a whole day in Coober Pedy and that’s more then enough,it’s a really small town but we had some beautiful views and the first outback feeling.

(oh yeah, Marijke and me we were so happy that we had blue sky in the morning, so nice! The sun was shining, In Adelaide it was really to cold and rainy, we go up North and they are speaking about temperature from 30degrees tot 35 degrees in Darwin! )

Coober Pedy is a town in the middle of the state of South Australia. It’s well-known for his opal. In the town there are living 3500 people, and our guide was working already for 10years here.
In 1915 a digger from 15years old found the first opal. And now there are so many people searching for opal. It’s a very strange town because everything is underground, even the church! The most of the families are actually really living under ground (they calls this there dog-outs), our hostel was also located in the rocks underground. The temperature of the houses and our hostels always stays around 20-25degrees, only during the night it could be a bit colder;
But when you have a good look in the town you can understand why.
The town is in the middle of the desert, now it’s wintertime so the temperature where ok, around 18degrees, but in summertime it could run up to 50degrees! So , we in Belgium during wintertime stay inside because it’s to cold, those people stay inside because it’s to hot!
They live inside and work inside! Then you have also people they don’t like to live underground so they are living in normal houses, but during summertime they pay about 1500dollar bills for air-conditioner .

Around the town you have a lot of ‘hills’ and wholes. You really can see where people were digging for opal. It’s also very dangerous, you can’t come here without a guide because you don’t want to ‘rock a me bump’ J (just to fall down in it, this outback accent is so hard to understand J )
You also have different tools to found opal, different machines. There are people digging during the night and using black light, because opal flashes under this light.

We had some time for noodling J, it means searching for opal. But unfortanely we didn’t found any, only some nice stones we just took as a memory.

We had a visit in the house of Crocodile Harry (do you know him Robert?) He died 18 months ago but he was a real outback figure, the funniest things is that he came from Latvia, he moved to Australia because of the war and he was living underground and had his on mines. After a while he also lived from tourist visiting him and he saved bra’s en underpants. He just loved woman so much because you could see so many pictures of him with woman’s naked.

We all know the movie ‘Crocodile Dundy’ eh, well, the guide told us that the filmmaker of the movie came to Crocodile Harry to get some ideas, and that he was the original of Crocodile Dundy. J
When you see the pictures you’re really going to believe this, because he had a lot of action picture with crocodiles…

And after that we went for the Breakaways, this view is unbelievable beautiful. You know that this was normally a sea!!! That’s why you can found opal a lot and fossils!

We had a look for the dingo fence! This one is 3500km long (longer then the Chinese wall, isn’t? How long is that one ?) Practically going from coast to coast. This is to keep the dingo’s away from the cheeps. It a real big thing here, because every two days they fly over the fence to check this and leave traps.

The last stop of the tour was a ‘moon’stop, this landscape was called like that because of his view. So Marijke and me we put our first steps on the moon! J

In the town we saw also a lot of Aboriginals, during our trip from Adelaide to Coober Pedy we had two of them in our bus. They have such a really funny language! And there a bit strange, you don’t want to sit next to them on the bus, if you know what I mean.
Our guide told us that when you see them in their environment that’s it’s really beautiful to see. In their culture family is really important, the children are learning from when there really small the rules of live and land.
But the Aboriginals we saw in the city, there a bit different, you can compare them with Nomads.
Ok, so the original name from Coober Pedy was ‘Kupa Piti’ (Aboriginal language) and it means ‘a whole in the earth from the white men’ or something like that J
The language has really different dialects, but if you speak one Aboriginal language, you can understand the other ones.

This is very funny: our guide told us, I don’t know if it’s true:
- the name ‘kangaroo’ is actually coming from their language. When captain Cook (I think that’s the English man who came in Australia for the first time, right?) was coming on the land he met an Aboriginal. The same time there was jumping a kangaroo and he asked the Aboriginal what is was. The Aboriginal replied with ‘kangaroo?’ So captain Cook thought it was an animal named like that, but what ‘kangaroo really mend was ‘I don’t understand you!’ hahaha, funny isn’t?
- the language has only 17 different letters.
- Here you have some nice words:
Fingertalk = sign language using the fingers

Mardong: love/attracted

Migloo = a European

Australia is really such a big country, when I was in Belgium I thought that one month would be such a long time to travel in Australia but really this is tooooooo short! Time is going so fast.
My advice to people, if you ever wonder to come here, just come for one year!
We meet a lot of people who are here on working holiday, yesterday we were sitting in the bar of the hostel and a German guy was working on a farm for already four months. It’s so beautiful, think about it, i get up in the morning for work, and get back in the evening , next day the same thing. People here are living from day to day! It’s so peaceful in the middle of the desert.

If it’s only for travelling, take 6 months, and just travel to New Zeeland also! And maybe Tasmania, ….
Wouldn’t it be beautiful just save some money and travel the whole world during one year! I met an English girl from Bristol and she’s doing that now, so cool….maybe future music? J will see

Alright! I think that’s all folks!
Tomorrow we’re leaving with Adventure tours for 7 days, so I don’t think I’m going to have the change to full up my blog, but when I’m in Darwin it’s going to be a long one!

Huggy!

Ow yeah, some thoughts:

- when you get on the bus, you also have to think left, very funny! JSo strange! Don’t get on the bus on the right side because then your driving. The bus also has a big ‘bumper’ in the front. It’s for bumping kangaroo’s J
- You know why people are calling Australia down under? Because if you just think about it, everything happens other way around. For example, the wine season is in February. The sunset is still coming up from the east but we in Europe always will see the sun from the south point of view and in Australia we see the sun always in the North. Do you think I’m right? J so, your own shadow is on a different side then when your in Europe! Think about that! J
- You have in Australia two mammals they lay eggs J , platypus (vogelbekdier) and echidna (is a kind of eagle but it eats ants)
- On our way to Alice Springs we got in the third state this week , the Northern territory.
- We also saw some VEDGE TEILE EAGLE. Those birds are the biggest ones, they eat dead animals, rats,…it ‘s so hard all those names of the animals….the first days everyone was talking about wombats, vedge teile eagle, wallyby….the different mammals!

13th of august
Goodmorning all!

It’s now about 8am, we are professionals in getting up at 4.30am. This is already the fifth time, but no worries mate, it’s really nice to see the sunrise. This morning we had the most beautiful one ever!

The last couple of days were really busy. 10th of August we arrived during the afternoon in Alice Springs, too bad it was Sunday and everything was closed. We wanted to get some souvenirs but we have to do that in Darwin. There we have one day no tour, so we decided already, BEACH, COCTAIL and SHOPPING! J

We checked on our hostel and did our laundry because we would leave for 7 days on tour.
After that we took a really good shower and met our friend Diane (from Switzerland) in the most coolest pub I ever been into!
The pub is called Bojangles, it’s a real outback saloon, and the funniest thing was that you could see us on the internet. There is a link (www.bossaloon.com.au) if you took this one you could see us live. If you’re interesting you can take a look now, you can get the feeling of a real outback pub!
We did sent some text messages to some friends but the only one who responded was Geert! Thanks buddy! Too bad that it didn’t work out with the beers J.
Oh yeah, on the paper we wrote ‘NO WORRIES BELGIUM!’ haha

We met also some nice Aussie-guys! Sorry Trent that we were their for only 2 very short evenings! But it’s not going to be the last time I’m visiting Australia! ;-)
We didn’t have the time to visit Alice Springs and that’s too bad because there are really some nice places there.
Oh yeah, Trent, you told me something about the Henley-on-Todd-Regatta. Well, after you told me I did read this in my book.
Folks this is really funny, once a year they have a boat race in Alice Springs, but because of the Todd river (this river is going through Alice springs) is dry they have the race on land! They have boats with no bottom in it. One time the race just failed and they had to cancelled it because it’s started raining and the river had actually water! J pretty funny isn’t?

The same night we ate a plate with different kind of meat. J
We had
-crocodile: I liked this one very much, it was sweet but a little bit dry
-kangaroo: was for Marijke and me one of our favourites. It tasted a bit like beef
-camel: degusting, I didn’t like this! J the aftertaste was so bad and very strong! And so dry!
-Buffalo: this was good, you can compare it with beef.
-the Emu (struisvogel): was also good, only they served it in sausage and this didn’t look very tasty! But when you closed your eyes and just give it a shot, it was good.

11th of august!

Ringggggggggg, 4am, getting up for going on two days tour.
Kings Canyon – Katu Tjuta – Ayres rock (the red centre called – Uluru in Aboriginal language)

On Tuesday evening we would be back in the hostel Alice Springs.
The group was ok, we had a lot of families during our trip and couples, so a bit boring. Again I was so happy that I have my silly adopted little sister with me (I call her already like that J). Marijke, she’s real fun when you go into the bush with her!
Our guide wasn’t so good as well, we think he was really fed-up (tired) from all the tours. Because this time of the year it’s very busy in the Central of Australia, it’s not that hot and a lot of tourist are coming this period to visit the Uluru.
But anyway we had a lot of fun!

Again we drove for 4 hours from Alice Springs to Kings canyon. You can imagine how big Australia is!
We arrived around 1pm (after lunch) on the spot and took a walk from 6km/4hours, just great; we did the whole canyon and also went to the bottom of it. There you had a waterhole, and of course you can found some birds and wildlife there.
The temperature in Central Australia is around 18 degrees- 20 degrees. Pretty windy, but when their isn’t any wind, you can walk in t-shirt. We had to put on a bit sunscreen because they told us that above central Australia you have a hole into the ozone. I don’t know if it’s true. But the sun is dangerous for burning.

Then again in the bus for 3 hours on our way to the red centre. We arrived on our camping place during the evening and set up a fire and BBQ.
BBQ is one of the top 5 things in Australia, the Aussie people just love making BBQ’s with friend in the garden, isn’t? J

We could sleep outside in a swap (it’s a big sleeping bag with a thin mattress in it), but I didn’t do that (and now I’m regretting it because I don’t think I have the chance again to do it), but Marijke (of course J ) she took the shot, and slept outside! I have great pictures of that!

The next morning we got up at 5 am and drove to the Ayers rock, were we tried to look at the sunrise. Unfortunately it was clouded and we didn’t see the red colour of the sun on the rock. But still the rock is really impressive, it’s just one piece (monolith, is this the right English word?) and it’s really important for the Aboriginal culture. A great spiritual significance for them, and when we are visiting their land we have to accept their laws and culture.
You can climb the rock but in the brochure of the National Park the local Aboriginals are asking not to do this. They believe the spirits of their ancestors are living in the rock.

We did a base-walk of 1hour and after that we drove to the Kata Tjuta (the Olgas).
Kata Tjuta, the Anungu Aboriginals give this name to the rock and it means = many heads.
We made a walk into the rock and I saw a camel. For me it was the first time I saw this animal wildlife!

The vegetation of Central of Australia is almost the same everywhere. You have a lot of desert and savannah.

After this walk we went back the camping place for lunch and we started back the trip to Alice Springs, again a drive of almost 4hours!

Oh yeah:
Marijke and me we were really shocked when we arrived at the camping place. When we left the hostel we only took our toothbrush, clean underwear and our sleepingbag. Other people who where on the bus had taking their whole luggage!
Then when we arrived on the camping, they had showers!!!! Warm water, a kitchen with electricity and a fridge! I actually had telephone connection!
Come on! We thought we would sleep into the bush with only a river for brushing our teeth, but in the morning we actually saw ladies putting make up before leaving to the sunrise!
And we wanted to be dirty for two days J, sleeping in our clothes and only brushing our teethJ

My cold is getting better I think, it’s really with periods, I don’t get rid of the sneezing.
I’m such a lousy backpacker J, next time I have to bring:

-my good walking shoes (I know!! I have them at home but I only bring All Stars and slippers hehhe)
-warm clothes, a raining jacket!
- a torch, this morning I bought one J, so tonight when I have to go to the toilet and don’t have to break any legs.
-a pocket knife! To open up our bottle of wine J, thank god Marijke is good prepared. So I decided to buy with the gift that I get from Kathleen and Geert and his family for my birthday to buy myself a good pocket knife! Jso thank you guys!
- warm socks

Okey! I think I’m finished for know!
The pictures are coming later when we arrive in Darwin!
Big hugs!!!

Oh yeah Robert, a question, did you hear something about a murder in the outback? 5years ago? The guy who supposed to be murdered is Peter Falconio, from England, they never found his body….

This is was thinking some hours later J :

I can’t describe what kind of feeling I have when I travel, but I can tell you all it’s so wonderful and you learn a lot of it. This country is a big mystery for me and the much longer i stay here the more I want to know the people better, the places and the culture. We’re staying to short time on different places. We are coming on spots that we never knew they excised, we’re seeing nature things that I never thought it was so beautiful. Nature that’s over billion years old!

We meet nice people from all over de world, people that just travel around the world with their stories. People with different backgrounds, with different culture, different lives….people they have a different way off living….
The more time I can think about it the more I try to enjoy every day that’s coming. Live is to short for sadness and stress ;-)
I try to remember that when I’m in traffic and will be late for work. haha
Try to enjoy your partner, your live, your work and your family! Don’t stress for small things in live, don’t stress about how other people are thinking about you. You as a person yourself knows what value you give to some peoples live.
Mmm, I think this is the syndrome of driving in desert wholes days ;) you start thinking!
huggg

From Adelaide to Melbourne and back

The real aussie mailboxxxxxx

This is the link from my friends blog:

http://ploempje.wordpress.com/

Hi you allllll,

Damn time is going fast, i'm already here for more then one week. I really enjoy it so much...

Now we are back in Adelaide and tonight our big trip to the centre, the heart of Australia start. We have to take a Greyhoud bus (those are the travelling buses in Australia and they cross whole the country) at 6pm and we drive till 5.30am the next day. Then we have a stop in Cooper Pedy. Then the next day we travel back by bus to Alice Spring. Here we have a tour for 7 days and it could be that i don't have connection with my phone for the whole 7 days, because my operator really s..cks.

Problably we don't have internet either so we will vanish from the earth for 7days, so NO WORRIES ;-)

Okey so what did i do the last three days:

I rented a car for 3 days an drove to Melbourne to pick up my friend, Marijke. In the hostel they called my crazy because it's by highway a drive from 10h, but no worries he, i started this one tuesdaymorning around 11am. I had to wait this long because i had problems with my visa. So after a while when Marijke fixed this in Melbourne i could start driving.

In the beginning i was bloody nerveus because off the left driving. I wrote on my hand a big L from left, but after a while you get used to it.

But i did some funny things haha:

-when i wanted to put my gears (learned a new word here) in the car, on the passengerseat, i took the wrong side, all the time...

-when i wanted to put my seatbelt on, i grabble the wrong way :-), so funny, i did this a couple of times.

-the slow vehicles has to drive on the left (totaly the other way around like in Belgium), and when you want to pass an other vehicles you have to do this from the right...so strange feeling, but you get used to it

-on the way to Melbourne you have so many different parrots, the small ones, different colours..we only see them in the zoo...

-oh yeah, the car was an automatic, luckily mummy Smet in California learned me how i had to drive this one. But still i needed 30minutes to figure it out how to use it. Because this systems was on the steeringwheel

- So, i left Adelaide at 11am and arrived in Melbourne at 7.30pm, i changed from state.
Adelaide is in the state 'South-Australia' and Melbourne is in the state 'Victoria', they have 30minutes time different.

I was lucky that i could stay over with a friend , Charlie, from Marijke in Melbourne...So thanks Charlie, i had the best bed and the best shower ever ;-)

In the evening we went to a bbQ party and around 2am we went to sleep.

NEXT MORNING:

Next morning we left for the ocean beach. First we went to the centre of Melbourne to meet a friend Matthias. We parked our car in a parkingplace under the ground and when we came back we payed 33dollars....F...ck, this was sooooooo expensive if we just knew ;-)

Then our journey started to the Great ocean road. This one in a road on the coast and it s 300km long.

We passed by beautiful beaches and of course the most famous rocks, the 12 apostels.

When we arrived the 12 apostels, sunset started and it was getting dark.

The aussies adviced us not to drive in the dark because of jumping kangeroos. But still we decided to give it a try because we wanted to see a small piece of the Grampians Natural Park the next day. We only had one more day.

So, we still drove on the highway for 2 more hours and then we went in the national park on safari :-)...keep your eyes open for jumping kangaroos or Wallybies ;-0

Around 10pm we arrived our hostels so tired of all the concentrating, but we didn't bump into any animal.

During our trip we saw also a lot of wildlive like Koala's.

The next day our tour started into the Grampians, but unfortunately we had some fog.
But the Mc Kenzie waterfalls were really beautiful...

After visiting the falls, we still had to drive for a couple of hours to Adelaide.

We arrived around 9pm, opened a good bottle of wine ;-), that's live...

On the road to Adelaide we had some discussions, who has the answer?

- How does a waterfall start? I mean the level difference?

- If you're in the plane and you go to the toilet, what happens with this? :-), i thougt it would leave the plane right away,but Marijke said that this change in ice cubes hahaha

-How could you see the difference between a male kangaroo and female kangaroo?

Oh yeah, and a bottle of coke,here it isn't 500ml but 600ml

big huggggggggggggggg

More pictures you can find on my facebook

kangaroo island

Hi everyone!

Thank you so much for the different replies on my blog, it’s always very nice to know that there are people actually reading what you’re writing! ;-)

It’s now Sunday evening about 22.34pm and I’m so dead but I couldn’t sleep yet! I arrived some hours ago from my trip to Kangeroo Island and this one was so great.
We left in the early morning from saterday – very early about 6.30am, and I had to get up about 5.30am – at out hostels.
First I had to make my luggage first and checked out the hostel, only for one night because tonight I’m sleeping again in the same one.

I booked the trip through an agency and the tour is especially organisated for young backpackers.
We had a group with 15people from different countries. There where Germans, people from Canada , a girl from the Netherlands (she’s really lovely! , tomorrow wer go together and walk through Adelaide), people from china (oooh no Robert, I didn’t had wine after the trip ;-) , haha, those people were pretty ok, they didn’t had bad manners!But then, now I’m sitting in ‘the living room-kitchen’ – so many again and all making disquisting noice –again, burping, slurping,….damn! )
Any way,

our group for two days

our guide and renee, the dutch girl, she s lovely, she talks and talks haha

Our guide was a really ozie – man! ;-) He was about 35years and has been travelling during 5 years in whole Australië. Now he lived in Adelaide and guiding some tours, he give surfing courses…. He loved surfing and we did get the most lovely stories about sharks, snakes,…He is a person that really grown up in the nature and knows so many things about seals, penguins, birds,…plants…incredible! We get all details.

We left Saturday morning with a little bus and we took the ferry direction Kangeroo Island.



When we get there the first thing I noticed that ‘I didn’t get any self phone contact anymore’!! Damn, haha , getting crazy! I put in my other card from Belgium and again I didn’t get any contact anymore! This was actually the first time in my live that I was without a self phone. Sometimes when I’m really getting tired off him, I just put him down, but now I didn’t have any choice ;-)
I have to admit, I put him away and after one hours I was so used to this! I loved it to loose contact with the real world. They already told me, that when I’m going to the middle of Australië that this would be the same!
Then we drove to different stops on the Island. We stopped at the most beautiful beaches ever!
If you’re interesting about the island, just put in the name in google, “kangaroo island”, you can see probably a map and some beautiful pictures.

Some information about this island:
- it’s the third largest island from Australia.
- It’s 4350 km² large
- You have two different city’s on the island.
- There living 4400 people there

Then we drove to the farm where we would sleep for one night. The farm was a bit old but very very beautiful, it was located somewhere on the south coast of the island and it was the only house in the whole environment.
You could also sleep in a swap! I try to find a picture on the internet.
It’s like a sleeping back with a matras in, you can close it all, and you have a net for insect above your head. So you’re really save for all animals. I didn’t do it yet because it was to cold but when I’m going to the middle of Australia I probably have any choice J
We are going to sleep in a swap for 5 days. Beautiful, J and the weather will be a it warmer and no rain!

(some pictures of eating and the farm)

The nearest town was … and there living 1400 people there , on the whole island there living about 4000 people.
We get our beds and the guide started the BBQ for lunch. With the whole group we started to prepare the vegetables. After dinner we drove further to the seal beach. I remember when I was visiting California there was also wildlife near the coast. Different seals where resting on the beach. In the USA you can’t get close to them, but this beach we where allowed together with a guide to get on the beach and see the sea animals from more closer. This was really one experience!



After this we went sandboarding J ! I try to put a movie from this on the blog but it’s already hard to put pictures on it.
This all happened in the Little Sahara. J if you see you pictures you know from where the name is coming.



When it starts to get a little bit more dark and damn cold we went to a bay (Hanson bay) where you can find ferry penguins, little ones!

Normally when it’s getting dark there coming out of the water and coming on shore. We didn’t so much but a few. We weren’t allowed to take pictures because the flashes would blind them. We saw little ones and bigger ones, this type of penguins isn’t really big. I bought a book with all the local animals in it and this one says that they can grow max to ….

Day one was already finished! We drove back to our farm, during the driving we did a little bit of safari and tried to found wildlife near the road. We actually had a lot off luck! We did see possums, wallyby (a smaller version of a kangaroo), the bigger kangaroo.
During the evening we maked some meals, some fire and just hang out with some beer around the fire. But everyone knows that there is in the south of Australia wintertime and in the beginning I thought that they mend 20-25degrees but damn I was wrong!
It can be very cold around here and around 24pm I was so frozen that I went to bed with all my clothes on. I didn’t care, the next day I will be In the hostel washing everything! But I was freezing! ;-)

The next day we get real Australien pancakes! Delicious! Those aren’t so sweet as ours! After this we left back around 8am to continue our tour!
Oh yeah, the Australians eats vegemite with there pancakes! Jak! It ‘s something with jist (what’s the rigt English word for gist?)in it, it really smells like beer!



First we went to the beach that a couple of years ago get the name of the best and most beautiful beach of whole Australia. After that we drove further to …. National park. Here you could very good see that a couple of years ago there were very big fires! The guide was telling stories about a tour group that was lucky to get out of there and about a young man from 22years that didn’t get out it!
The fire has his positives and negatives sites. He told us that some areas are counting on natural fires every several years. Because after a fire the vegetation can grow more faster and better. The animal live is getting bigger.
Also there is one plant in Australia that grows very good after a fire and the plant is called “jakker”.



He brought us to different spots in the natural park. We went to the ….stones, the lighthouse where you also can found different seals and beautiful views! This spot has been the only one where there was a shark attack a couple of years ago. So a hint from our ozie-man ‘don’t go swimming here of surfing!’
After that we had a lunch and we drove to the north site of the island, he really want to show us that there was a big difference north and south.
Here I get the challenge to go swimming in the sea J , well, I did it!
The water was 14degrees and the air about 15 degrees! It felt wonderful! Of course in the beginning it’s bloody (hahaha, Robbert again, they use this word also here! ) cold but after that it was wonderful! The only thing I hope is that I’m not getting sick now ;-)

Okey folks, I’m going to sleep! See ya tomorrow!

Goodmorning all! I slept so bad, first off all I ‘m still having problems with the bloody jetlag because around 6am I was totally awake! Plus my roommates make so much noises when they get up around 7am and 8 am that I didn’t sleep anymore. It’s now 9am and I had a coffee already and put a laundry in!

Oh yeah, some nice things I wrote down during the trip that I really had to write on the blog:
- first off all, the Australian accent is terrible! I can’t understand a thing. For example they you the word ‘reckon’. Example: ‘I reckon that’s a bird’. It’s means : ‘I think that’s a bird’ It took a long time before I understood that! Haha
- then they also use the word ‘heaps’ it means ‘a lot’.
- Always ‘hi mate’ J great word!
- Oh yeah and the last thing:
Some mammals: I bought a really good book, because everyone is talking about animals and I can’t imagine how the look like! So now I can look it up!

Those I saw!
Possum



Common dolphin, they were jumping behind the boat when we get back to mainland!

Koala:
I only saw one and he was sitting far away in the three, they promised me when I’m getting more up north, I’m going to see some more! J

Wallyby: they are looking the same like kangeroo’s but a it smaller.

Kangaroo

Seals

I think that’s all!
Alright! Today I’m going to pay our buses and rent a car. Tomorrow morning I’m driving on the highway to Melbourne to pick up my friend and we’re driving back to Adelaide in two or three days through the Great Ocean road and Grampians national park. First I was thinking she would go better by bus but I really wanted to see this also. I would regret myself if I wouldn’t do this and just stay whole week in Adelaide.
I’m can’t see Sydney because there isn’t plenty of time but then I saw anyway the great ocean road ;-)

Big hug all!!!! It would be probably the middle of the week when I put more on my blog, and I put some more pictures on facebook!

See ya!
