Well as you know. I met up with Ally again and although we've parted ways now. I, in fact, we had the most amazing time together coming down part of the East Coast. We totally lucked out with the weather, tour groups, activities. EVERYTHING!

Here's the evidence:

Awwww Beautiful, gorgeous!

In the driver's seat along 75 mile Beach. Loving it. Can you tell?

Grind, Grind, Grind!!! Ally and my little bit of help getting the main sail up.

Say hi to Hammer. Sailing boat we spent 3 days and 2 nights on. Amazing experience. Not to be forgotten in a while. That's for sure!

Whitehaven Beach, Whitsundays. And quite possibly the best beach I've seen!

Magnetic Island.

The Great Barrier Reef about an hour off shore from Cape Tribulation

Mossman Gorge, Daintree River and Cape Tribulation

Well I'm in Cairns and have been for a few days now. Have to say it wasn't what I expected at all. But a nice place all the same. There's no beach!! They do have a man made pool by the port that you can relax by. Although the weather has not been too great. Aparently still the aftermath from the Cyclone, recently. Did catch some rays yesterday and I am getting that tan back again. Gonna be heading up to Cape Tribulation, Saturday. Into the rain forest and doing snorkling around The Great Barrier Reef. I'm really excited about that. Then I'll be heading back down here to catch a bus and start my tour down the East Coast. I have actually met up again with Allison, who I met in Sydney, and we'll be travelling down to Brisbane together. More photos and updates will come soon.

Hey! I'm now in Alice Springs. Chilling after arriving, Monday, from an outback tour of early rises, sunsets, walks, climbs and lots of drinking (would I have it any other way?). 6 days on a bus up from Adelaide. Had an amazing time and here's some pictures for you to get an idea of what I experienced.

I'm flying over to Cairns, Saturday, for my tour of the East Coast.

Trust me!!! Cannon St Backpackers, Adelaide

Winery Tour, Adelaide. Guess where I am?!

Well my time in Sydney has now come to an end!! Sob, sob. Had some amazing times here and I've fell in love with the city. Met and said goodbye to so many great people. But so excited about my next chapter. I'm off to Adelaide, tomorrow. Doing an outback tour up to Alice Springs. Can't wait! I'll update again soon.

Denise says: "Oh no Mark I've lost Jenny!?! Have you seen her?" Mark says: "No haven't a clue". Ha ha ha. I love this snap. Jen you little star I'll be laughing at this photo for years to come!!

Well coming to the end of my stay in Sydney now. I finish my job next week YAY!! What an amazing time I've had. Living the life of luxury in the apartment. Will soon have to don the backpack again. You can see I've had a blast. But I'm so excited about moving on now. I'll be flying up to Cairns soon to come down the East Coast.

Also just wanted to say hi and bye to all the guys I've met, lived with, drank with and partied with here in Sydney. We've had some laughs, hey!? Great memories! Happy travels to you all. You guys at home - What's new? Any exciting stories for me?
