Dusty tracks and mud holes
This is a top pick! ... undignified manner we ended our first day being dragged out backwards from a mud hole. But otherwise a pretty good day! Next stop Mornington. Just around the corner really in Aussie terms at 200 km or so and a good few river crossings to get everyone ...
Choked up with Memories of Home
This is a top pick! I can't believe today is the 6 month mark. In some times, it seems like forever ago that I was standing outside the house with my backpack on uttering tearful goodbyes to my family. I remember the last few days in Canada were so hectic trying to get all ...
Day Trip to Philip Island

Rain on the peninsula
... but to fall non-stop for hours. But it was the last day of the car hire and I had planned to visit the Mornington Peninsula so I did. Driving down to Frankston at the head of the peninsula was pretty unrewarding: one suburb after another, though with ...

Kerst bij Frank
Mijn veel te zware tas lanceer ik met een plof in de auto van Frank, mijn vriend die ik met Kerst enkele dagen zal bezoeken. We rijden naar zijn woning, en ik krijg een voorproefje op Franks rijstijl, welke niet al te best blijkt. Vakkundig zwiept ...
Sunny Ridge, Gunnamatta and Frankston
On Saturday, I went to Gunnamatta beach with Sheila, Matthew and Michael. It's a beach on the South coast where the waves are massive and it's normally good for surfing, but the waves were too rough for surfing so we just swam and took ...

Views and Kangaroos at Arthur's Seat
We'd just got back to Rye from our Great Ocean Road trip, and I was telling Sam's wife Kate how we'd seen koalas but no kangaroos. She said that the view from up at Arthur's Seat, a twenty minute drive away, was worth getting back in the car for. There ...

Farewell to Oz - the final instalment
A fantastic way to end our 5 months in Oz...... The Grampian Mountains just into Victoria (our final state) were beautiful. The sunny weather definitely helped, but the panoramas over the valley and off the sheer cliff edges were some of the best views ...
