Some Beach Some Where
Date: Dec 21st AUS @ 12:22p I’m currently worshipping the sun on a beach somewhere in Coffs Harbour. The wind is keeping it from being so blazing hot but it is also kicking the sand around. Heather & Suz have left for less sandier conditions…the campground pool. They said they didn’t like the sand but I told them that is part of coming to the … Continue reading Some Beach Some Where
Tourist Day…aka Acting Like Kids
Date: 12.21 AUS Yesterday we were kids again. We went to the Pet Porpoise Pool and got seal kisses from Abbie the seal. We also fed Ozzie the seal. We petted a porpoise and fed blue penguins. I (Shelia) fed a little blind penguin named Andy. Afterwards we went to The Big Banana and ice skated and did the toboggan. Both were fun. We settled … Continue reading Tourist Day…aka Acting Like Kids
Barfly: Chapter Ten
“Friday’s here!” I squealed and jumped up and down on my bed. I had once again been wakened by internal alarm clock before my real alarm had gone off. I collapsed onto my bed and screamed into a pillow. There was no need to wake my neighbors with extreme happiness. I’m sure they would have just called cops and had my happy and crazy ass … Continue reading Barfly: Chapter Ten
Dorrigo National Park on the Waterfall Way
After a quick scenic detour thru Heads Way & Uranga, we arrive at Dorrigo National Park. The sky walk was a bit of a let down since we imagined it was going to be like Grandfather Mountain’s Mike High Swinging Bridge but it wasnt. We didnt ponder on that too long because after we walked the path to Crystal Shower Falls. As we walked we … Continue reading Dorrigo National Park on the Waterfall Way
On the Road: Day One
Date: 12.18 AUS Current time: 3:40p We are somewhere on Pacific Highway near Taree. We loaded our gear into our campervan that we have named Gordon or Smelly Ass Gordon. Why smelly? The CV (short for campervan because it’s too long to type) smells like stale fish…as if some cooked fish and the scent lingered. After a quick lets get lost leaving Bondi, we set … Continue reading On the Road: Day One
End of Dec 18th
We reached Port Macquarie, a tourist/retirement town. Stores close @ 4 or 5. We got there at 530. We do walk around and take in the pier and water and watched the sunset. Afterwards we spend about 30 mins looking for somewhere to rest our heads. The places in the tourist guide are closed so we said screw it and hit the road and find … Continue reading End of Dec 18th
Chasing Waterfalls
Date in AUS: 12.19 Time: 7:08p Today instead of going to Coffs Harbour we hit Waterfall Way to go see the Dorrigo National Park with a detour via Scenic Route 16. We hiked over 9km in 3 hours. My legs are killing me and if I don’t come back with the most cock diesel ass and legs I’m gonna be upset. I’ve never put my … Continue reading Chasing Waterfalls
Thanks for the Memories
Date in AUS: Dec 18th Time: 10:56 pm Port Macquarie was very nice and as peaceful as it was…I didn’t have to stop there. It just wasn’t my scene. Right now, we are at a campervan spot and it brought back instant childhood memories of when I lived in GA in a campervan (that would be a camp site or camp ground in the US). … Continue reading Thanks for the Memories
Somewhere Out There
Date written: 12.18.11 AUS I’m somewhere on the Pacific Highway. We just left Buladelah to stretch our legs and to get out of Gordon the Campervan. He smells of stale cooked fish. It’s not so bad after your nose adjusts to it but then a reminder will hit us just to remind us of Smelly Ass Gordon. BTW that’s our given name to him. He … Continue reading Somewhere Out There
Barfly: Chapter Nine
“So tell me about this Stellan guy,” my older and overly protective brother said as we sat in on a park bench feeding the birds. “What do you want to know?” “What does he do? Where’s he from? What’s he like? Where did you meet him? I want to know everything about him that you do.” “So you can form an opinion?” My brother … Continue reading Barfly: Chapter Nine
