Sunny Sydney

Now I've got a visitor here in Sydney, my friend Odd-Arne from Norway arrived this morning. We had a great Aussie breakfast and later we went to Coogee Beach, someone even got burnt after 1 hour on the beach... :) So we decided to head back home and relax for a while. Next plan now is to go to the bottle shop, and after we'll see what happens.

We have all the days until Tuesday next week to go around in Sydney, on Tuesday we'll fly down to Melbourne for a week to experience the Great Ocean Road.

As some of you may have noticed there's a huge cyclone headed for Queensland, so let's hope for the best for everyone up there! The concern down here is bush fires because of the very nice and hot weather lately.. Hopefully we'll have some rain so this won't be an issue later on when we want to go to the Blue Mountains.

Cheers!

Cairns, Tropical Queensland

Now I'm back in Cairns after the dive trip, the plan is to see Cape Tribulation and Port Douglas before I head south direction Brisbane for Christmas and New Year.
While I was in Cairns I spent 4 days on a liveaboard dive boat, the rest of the days I spent at the Lagoon reading books and listening to some concerts sponsored by the city council in Cairs. One day there was a great country band and the next a reggea band.
The famous Lagoon in the city centre of Cairns, this is basically one of the only attractions Cairns has.
