... old chat about that sort of thing and also related on the front of never having seen a honey badger (which we bothe desperately want to see!). Dinner was delicious and served as almost a half silver service, sort of equivalent to a military Mess Dinner (but the food was even better, haha!)
The next day, I had breakfast with the giraffes again, this time Arlenne who is the most huggable (literally because the others headbutt everynow and then or kick but she is extremely ...

... then this guy asks for my declaration stating I haven't brought anything into the country that I shouldn't have!! I hand it over and he says 'right come through here' and takes me to quarantine where he asks me each individual question on the declaration and says it's against the law to lie!! I'm standing there cool as a
cucumber and then he asks if it's possible my bags could have been tampered with?! What the hell?! Next thing I ...

... and its sand dunes. A short break whilst the guide reduced the pressure in the tyres of our vehicle, before setting off for the dunes themselves. This proved to be an exhilarating expereince, as, despite its size, the vehicle magaged to negotiate what were seemingly suicidal gradients, both up and, more stomach-churningly down. Eat your heart out Jeremy Clarkson.

One final activity, whilst air was returned to the tyres ...

... would that get you in England!? sweet.
Will be good to get away from the city for a while, then when I come back it'll be warmer and can do some nice beach type things. And go up the coast a little too me thinks.
Then the plan, at the moment, is to get to Adelaide and do the Great Ocean Road so I'm in Melbourne about early November so I can hopefully get a job there and settle in for Xmas.

Ok- I can't remember when exactly these things happened.
There was a night ...

... with. As you saw in our
photos they also have massive blue bottles. Our afternoon was
strenuous some crazy person suggested we go for a run/walk which
turned out to be around an 8km adventure through the suburbs of
Perth. Hamish couldnt attend because he had to cook us a chicken
curry for dinner - yum!!!

Arriving late just before dark we arrived back Quinns Rocks Caravan Park once again, parked up right on the ocean. Perfect! It was good to get back and after some serious bush camping the van needed some serious cleaning!!!!!!! and organising and clearing out! We had soooooo much to do and all i can say is I'm sorry if we never caught up but it was serious ...

Ok so I know it's been a looooong time since my last entry. I've come to Perth, settled into rez, started school, actually it's about a third over or maybe even a bit more and now we're at our 2 week "reading week". I've been in Perth just under 2 months which seems insane to me and I've been in Australia for 2 1/2 months. I'll have to stay in Perth to finish up the semester, since that's why I originally came to Australia, and then I'll be heading up north for ...

... And the average age of the backpacker has gone from 25+ in Asia to 19 here - it gets really annoying too noticing how immature most hostel residents are (but then that means I've grown up a lot finally!). Perth was nice for a week, if a little samey, but we've had to hole up here for a fortnight to get Aussie thinsg sorted like bank accounts, medicare cards, tax numbers and such. But that's all done now and we're off to Darwin (Northern ...

... same room for 4 months! Cesca found his washing habits hard to deal with and gagged on one occasion when entering the room at the smell of his work gear. The other problem was that work started at 5am with his alarm going off so we found trying to fight jet lag with sleep a bit interupted. Over the next few days we explored Perth City with Kelly taking us to King's Park to view the city from up high. We also chose the ...

... us in for our first night at the five star Intercontinental Hotel - it was pure luxury! Bathrobes and clean white towels were such a novelty, not to mention constant hot water!!! The next day Ray picked us up armed with a crammed full itinerary for our week together. Ray said that this would be a holiday for him too as he was eventually getting to do all of the touristy attractions that he had never done before in Perth. One of our first activites was a trip to the ...
