The Waves Apartments Cowes

... down was pretty relaxing, light traffic through green rolling pasture lands with sheep everywhere. Of course we had our eyes peeled for kangaroos. We have been here almost 2 months and have yet to see a kangaroo! To be fair you have to go north of the city out into the bush and then you see them everywhere, like deer back home. And they sell kangaroo meat in the grocery. Haven't tried it yet though.<br> <br>Not only is the island home to the ...

... Still so hot outside, and the ozzies still talk about heatwave: it is for me like someone from Chamonix complaining about too much snow... Then the famous Brighton beach and finally Geelong for a beer before taking off for Sydney. Back home! Pizza at Adamo's in Stanmore, very nice Portuguese who speaks a bit of every language. Pizza lacks tomato though, and is an in between Pizza and American pizza. But good, and did the job.

... be from a whole different part of Australia. Firstly, however I'd like to talk about what I've been up to, given the title of the entry I'll start with all the scary and not so scary 'locals' I've now met. No, i'm not referring to Casey's friends and family, but to the country's fauna- -in the animal sanctuaryA trip to Healesville Sanctuary, which has made a decision to house only native aussie animals was great as i got to meet all the locals. I finally saw a kangaroo, one of which ...

... building did have some interactive features and displays and a fancy new cafe with a huge jumbo tron (so basically you can watch the seals and commercials from inside without ever having to go outside!). After walking everywhere possible for an hour went inside to wait out the time before moving on to the penguins. Got a couple drinks and a pastry fro some crazy price like $100 at the fancy new cafe and watched the ...

... tegenkwam. Als eerste een heuse wombat: negen maand oud, een baby dus eigenlijk nog, maar al wel enorm groot. Wombats lijken trage en ook kwetsbare dieren, maar als ze aangevallen worden, duiken ze in hun hol onder de grond en keren hun kunt naar de aanvaller. In de onderrug van een wombat zit een plaat, keihard, die hun van aanvallen beschermd. Een verder rondje door het park bracht ons langs een zoetwaterkrokodil, een tasmanian devil (yegh, die stinken), dingoes ...

... know). Stopped at the beach, walked down the sand... looked left, miles and miles of beach with no one in sight curving into the distance... looked right, many more miles of deserted beach... turned around to a huge cloud of at least 30 flies all competing to annoy the **** out of me by buzzing into ears, settling on my back, flying nearly up my nose or into my eyes!!! This has been a constant problem since landing in Brisbane ...

... hot) have told the official Neighbours night to kiss their ass and set up a new one in competition. For anyone reading this as a guide to Melbourne (and, regulars, it does happen every now and then), the new night is cheaper and - according to everyone we've sent there - a lot better. ANYWAY, good old Toadie comes in every week or so to mingle in the pub, meet the backpackers from upstairs, do a few photos and let us know who's going to be down at their night next week ...

... It's great drinking where you work - it never ceases to amaze me just how drunk three people can get on about $10. At some point a deck of cards were produced and by the end of the evening Johnny, Vinny and I owed Bruce "Card Shark" Cambell $80 between us - which we have no intention of ever paying (told you BC). Things are extremely up in the air at the moment, as I am juggling a potential two different job offers - neither of which is in Melbourne. One of them isn't ...

... ll find anything as exciting as my past adventures but you never know! Tonight I'm off to the cinema in the biggest entertainment complex I think I've ever seen in my life - I mean, seriously it's HUGE! And then tomorrow it's the Neighbours tour with Alli! Yey! I'm actually quite excited about it. How sad is that?! Hope all is well - pleeeeease email with your news, I haven't heard from some of you in a long long time!
