Australia: RP's view on the holiday ...
... flew in to sydney and was immediately on the
go....picked up our nice big comfy
rental car and off we go to check out the 'Gap' where the sea flows into the
harbour ....
beautiful place but not a fantastic picture spot though cause i looked bigger
than the opera house and harbour bridge combined! =) off to the blue mountains
on the next day and that was cool.....kinda more like grey mountains though
cause it was raining the whole day =P ...but it was fun.... i enjoyed the
sensation of almost freezing my ears off then hopping back into a nice warm
car and getting pins and needles on them instead...hahahahahaahaaaa... then
it's on to canberra..... hope i didn't give the swans and ducks a tummyache
by overfeeding them with corn crackers....after that, drove inland to the
snowy mountains hoping to do some skiing but the snow was too little and the
price was too high, so onwards to drink ourselves silly in Rutherglen where
the wineries are....from there, up to Echuca to check out the Murry river
and the paddleboats, then decided we wanted to scare some kangeroos so went
on to the Grampains and stayed in this cute little place where you can feed
the kookabora birds in the evening and see kangeroos jumping around on the
field outside your room....and in the driveway, and just about everywhere!.....now
that was fantastic! after that, went further inland to the little desert and
the big desert national parks....after which we decided it's time to get back
to the sea and beach so on to the great ocean road....we even saw a whale
in action and koala bears in the trees along the way! After that, visited
some cute little penguins in phillip island before flying out from melbourne....
yup, the summary of my two weeks (wink)in Oz.....essentially, we were on the
go six hours a day then back in the room by 8pm after dinner watching tv till
12midnight with a bottle of wine...hahahhaaaaa...now that's life. =)
