Do you come from a land Down under?

Sept. 2005: The trip over here went well, although I almost missed my early birdy morning flight from Helsinki to Vienna, because of luggage check-in problems. Later I got in trouble with the airport police in Vienna, because the number in my Visa ...

 

Answering the question: Do dingoes really steal babies?

So I didn't miss my flight...but actually I almost did. The first leg of the journey was to fly from SeaTac into LAX. If you fly on frequent flyer miles, you are one step above livestock. They won't give you a confirmed seat, even though I booked th...

Australia

Sun 25 Feb 07 (Writing on the 1st March) FROM KAKADU TO KATHERINE I was really excited about arriving in Katherine. From what we had heard and read it sounded a lovely little town. Having stayed three days I don't know how anyone could live here! ...

Wish you were here?

Hi, After we left you on Monday afternoon we took a walk from our hotel down to the Tulum ruins on the beach. We didn't have the place to ourselves like at Chichen Itza unfortunately but most of the tour buses had departed. The ruins are of a Mayan...

 

South Australia, Victoria and ACT

We spent a couple of nights here, to recouperate from the long days of driving across the Nullabor. Our first evening was eventful as we noticed a lot of kangaroos in the campground. One approached our van and before we knew it, had lunged for our ba...

SOUTH AUSTRALIA

Spent our first night in South Australia, at a lovely place called Beachport. Decided it would be nice to treat ourselves to a slap up chicken schnitzel dinner at the local hotel (pub). After dinner ventured into the bar area to harass some locals - di...
