Hi All, The last time i Left you, we were just leaving New Zealand. Well, a quick trip across the Ocean brought us to Sydney, with expectations of Sun, Sea and...Flip Flops. Well..it rained for a whole day, and we just managed time to grab some food. Basically, we had decided to have a quick look at Sydney, get some pictures, and head out the ne...

Here is a report on our latest challenge in the name of the Miriam Hyman Memorial Fund - Diving on the Great Barrier Reef 06.45 The Quicksilver bus picked us up from the Cairns Esplanade, just a few doors down from our hostel. During the journey to Port Douglas harbour the driver pointed out local landmarks and features. When we arrived at the Q...

Walked into town again this morning for a gander around being overtaken by a motorized skateboard along the way (always wanted one of them when I was younger). Ended up looking around the marina watching a few helicopters come and go for those paying for the privilege of a birds eye view of the reef thinking they were maybe the sort of people li...

Yesterday we'd arrived at the holiday park after the main office had closed up for the night, so first thing this morning we dropped by to settle our debts. They confirmed that at this moment they were still fully booked for Saturday night, but it might be worth our while checking back with them tomorrow in case they'd had a cancellation. It wou...

Got up early after pretty much no sleep which wasn't good! Oh, and the drive was pretty boring, and the weather was rubbish (downcast and damp). Not a good day! After a few hours, we stopped off at a few places to stretch our legs and to see some sights. We went to a croc farm and watched the crazy handler feed the crocs as well as seeing a cass...

Hi folks...how you going? Unfortunately today was full of mixed emotions!! We had to bid some of our crew members goodbye. However, there will most definitely be those that i will make an effort to keep in touch with, and others...well it'll be nice to know what they get up to now and again i suppose. Some of the lads and i want to exchange phot...

We woke up at 4:00 am, Jesus Christ. I was all packed up and ready to go; we left the hotel, arrived at the airport, and flew to Sydney. The flight we took was earlier than planned so Robert and I played footy in the terminal and got yelled at a couple times. We flew into Cairns into the hot weather and awesome sunny and green mountains. Once we...
