... first road into the Hunter Valley built by convicts between 1827 to 1834. The town turned out to be very tiny just a few old houses but as the much vaunted and advertised museum was closed it was not possible to get any information about the place or the buildings. This was a pity as there were a lot of visitors all of whom had expected the museum to be open. The only thing left to do was to return back to the campsite and start to pack up ready for the journey to Sidney the next day

... part and worked our way back to town. By the end of the day, when we had a few drinks in us, we were glad to have only a few km to do to reach the campsite. At the campsite, we met a Malay guy who was quite strange. He was living here permanently while studying in Newcastle, a larger town by the coast. He told us loads of story of his life and at the end I did not know whether to laugh or to be scared! That night was sooo cold: it was 5 degrees in the van...time to buy a heater!

... increase the amount of sugar in the grape. iii) most Hunter whites are dry, which i don't like iv) the cork used for bottling wine is too young. Screw caps are better. V) all Shiraz has a greasy taste reminiscent of a garage and is best avoided if there is a choice of something else. Vi) you can't beat a good south American or Spanish red or a German White. 9) Bluetongue brewery; the last stop,we were supposed to be beertasting here but ...

... zu gucken, wie weit wir waren. Üb** uns** Spiel kann zumindest sagen, daß a) kein** v**letzt wurde b) keien Kugel den Tisch jemals v**lassen hat und c) Olaf und meine Vorstellungen von Billardregel and**s sind. The next day we w**e off to try some more wines. We wanted to take the tour at the Wyndham Estate, one of, if not the biggest, wine manufactur** in Australia. But, see, th**e was a nice pool on the right hand side of wh**e we had to turn off. Olaf and I like pools ...

After we left the Blue Mountain, we heading up the coast. First we paid a little visit to Manly beach, then we drove to a town called Terrigal where we would spend the night. Terrigal is a really small town (fuld af truckhoveder), so we drove early the next morning. Then we stop in a town called The Entrance, where we talked for a long time with two girls working in Subway ...

Monday night 1.38am and I have just finished setting up our travelogue (I think). You can come and visit when ever your bored or wait for the email to tell you that something interesting has been entered. This is the first of hopefully many interesting entries. Cheers Hunter

... there were people from Norway, Saudi Arabia, China, and Columbia. So anyways, we went to the wildlife park, which was basically a smaller sized zoo, family owned, and very cool. There was plenty of space for all of their animals, which is a welcomed change compared to most zoos. I got to see a lot of the same animals I did in Cairns, but some in more detail. The Koalas for instance, were much closer, and better lit, so I got some ...

... through Sydney on their Ozzie honeymoon. Unfortunately for them, there were major weather issues in New South Wales at that point with so much rain there were floods, landslides, etc. Anyway, that didn't stop us sitting on the balcony and enjoying pizza and wine. It was great to see you both!!! As you will see from the photos, I have also been successful in training the wild birds of Australia! I have been trying to encourage the more interesting ...
