Sun, Sand, and Thunderstorms

Sydney! 
We made it into and out of the city, and saw the major sights while we were there. The rain was pouring down when we arrived but let up shortly so we were able to walk about without getting soaked. Walked across the bridge and around the opera house, through the botanical gardens and the art gallery. Definitely one of my favorite cities. 

One of the waterfalls in the Blue Mountains. We also went on a tour into the Jenolan Caves-highly recommended. The tour was well done and the caves were amazing. (Hard to take good pictures while in a cave though.)


On our way to the beach... Lots of little lizards around here, some not so little.


Our camp in Coff's Harbour. This is where we had the thunderstorm last night. The little car has been doing well. Tyrell changed the air filter and fuel filter and fixed some sputtering issues it was having. And, thinking of the hot summer ahead of us, christened it Hot Tamale! We have adjusted well to driving on the wrong side of the road, and the car for that matter. Although, we still get the windshield wipers going while intending to use the turn signals.

We are now on our way to a WWOOF farm west of Brisbane. A cattle ranch that promises to show us some "real Aussie bush life'. We plan to stay about 10 days and then will probably head to the Great Barrier Reef for some diving!
