Red-Back on the toilet seat
Mon Repos was a small place, little more than a nature reserve on the beach. There was one good reason to come and visit though. Mon Repos is where the turtles come to nest on the beach, and we were lucky enough to catch one of the last few days of the ...
Instinct is incredible

The day the bus broke down
As a part of the Oz Experience (the backpacker tour bus that I'm taking down the coast) we were supposed to arrive at what they had described as a 5 star resort around 4:30 pm. I knew that the resort wasn't going to be 5 star, but they did fool me by ...

Rum & Surf
Ozzies maken tot mijn grote spijt geen whisky...maar ze produceren wel hun eigen rum. Dat kan ook door de keel mits een verfrissend ijsblokje. Het Bundaberg rumlogo word fier vertolkt door een ijsbeer...nogal belachelijk vind ik gezien we een scheet van ...
