Travels with Skis

No, I am not dead...

Finally made it to New Zealand. Australia was really fun - spent a couple of days in Sydney, and then up the coast to Byron Bay, with a night in South West Rocks along the way, and then all the way back to Sydney inland via Nimbin (hippies), Dorrigo (drunk teenage hicks), Arimidale (dust), and Gloucester (farmers). All very pleasant and uneventful apart from a half hour period where Pierra thought it would be a good idea to strand me in the back arse of nowhere! I got the last laugh though - I hid myself good and proper in the bushes by the time she got back, and boy, did she ever freak out when she started thinking that I had been kidnapped by some outback psycho :-) I am sure that she will have a different side to the story though!

I have lots and lots of cool photos of the trip but am having a little difficulty uploading them. They are on P's computer, but all the internet cafes seem to block everything apart from http :-(. As soon as I get settled in the caravan (I should finally get there tomorrow), I will endeavor to get lots of them up on the site, and write a bit more on what I have been up to.

Take it easy dudes,
S
