View from the giraffe pen, and bird show area



An iconic pose....


This tiger was actually posing and roaring a lot however we only got a photo of it lying out?!




The seal/sealion show was amazing. Balancing balls on its nose, clapping its flippers, talking................ as well as balancing on one flipper, playing dead, and lots of diving and splashing.



Very cosmopolitan mountain goats


Billy Goat Gruff



Look at the lipstick!



Snake necked turtle and some random Chinese family


Hannah was barging women and children out of the way to get this photo :)

Lane Cove


The TV and internet room at the campsite. When the temperature get too hot outside everyone piles in here to cool down, but then there are too many people and it gets even hotter :)



Hannah's and I's first marital home :) it cost me $350 with no mortgage. We currently have very little shade so in the heat of the day it can get up to 50degrees inside the tent......unbearable!


Bilby? Big rat thing with a very long nose. they are always around at night looking for a cheap meal.



That 'blinking' Possum again!!! they try and get in your tent if you leave any food in it. We have been woken up a few times in the middle of the night.



Joe, become aquainted.

Bondi - Sculptures by the Sea


Tamarama Beach..with the sun out this time. It was about 35degrees this day. Hannah got very hot walking back to the train station and suffered a bit with heat stroke that day, but was better the next day.










The Iceberg Restaurant (top floor) with the South Bondi RSL beneath. We have eaten here a couple of times because they do a $10 steak night on a Thursday. Really tasty!!


Bondi Beach - with lots of people getting skin cancer

Back to Sydney


We have been surviving on baked beans while at Lane Cove River Tourist Park while we both wait to be paid.


This is the camp kitchen where we now call home. Most socialising goes on in this area.


This was the camperbus which was in the site beside us. They also had a trailer with a little Suzuki 4by4 and a boat. Satellite TV, air con and a fully fitted kitchen.....some might say they have brought everything and the kitchen sink.


These two 'evil' kookaburras have been swooping down at us since we arrived. Been here 4 weeks now. Hannah dropped her weetabix the other day as one of them attacked her hand. People feed them so they get aggressive.


Every so often we don't feel that far away from home :)

Coffs Harbour...Again


This is the Jetty beach at Coffs Harbour. We spent a week and a half here as we were both applying for work in Sydney and Brisbane, and Coffs is in between. Made good use of the free internet so we were frequently on Skype :)


Annoyingly we didn't take any photos of the campsite and the rest of Coffs Harbour. We were too busy trying to find jobs and so didn't take photos of our surroundings. We went for quite a few walks along the coastline, and watched a junior surf competition.
