I met a two english girls, that were wanting to travel down the west coast, in Darwin. We decided to hire a campervan for a month to travel down. We hired a 'Wickedcamper'...



They all have different designs. Dracula wasnt the best, but after we saw the Elton John one, we realised it could have been worse.

The west coast was really nice. Most people our age go the east coast, so it was a lot quieter than what id seen so far. One of the highlights was snorkelling at Coral Bay. Thanks Gary/Ewen for keeping me filled in on the Rangers score that night. Has Strachan been sacked yet?

We did a lot of climbing in the trip, up and down mountains, down and up gorges, and uh inside caves. I will send the pics on later today hopefully!

We went skydiving in York, just east of Perth. One of the girls was desperate to do it, and its about 1/4 of the price to jump in the UK, so she did it here. I decided to join her, as i had nothing else to do that day. It was really good, but a little scary. I couldnt believe how fast we fell. One of the other jumpers took pictures of me, and hopefully he will email them to me soon.

Our last week was spent south of Perth. We saw some amazing things there. Albany was my favourite place, its where i found my new strange obsession with waves. Id never seen them so big, and i think ive took too many pics of them. Ah well.

I decided to get the train back to Adelaide. It was the same price as flying, but took two days. I thought it would be fun, and it was. Kinda. Also really really boring. Every time we stopped it was in the middle of the night, so we couldnt really do anything. It would only have taken one day, if we had just kept on going. I dont regret getting the train, but im not sure id do it again, unless i get poorer. Its two free nights accomodation, as someone pointed out.

So im back in Adelaide. The first thing i did was get a haircut. How long was that? 3 months? I think thats a record. Ive not done too much since i got back, but i think we are going away tomorrow somewhere. Ill let you know where, soon.
