Touring the Great Ocean Road We had arranged to take a day tour out to the Great Ocean road today. We had originally booked with another tour company but due to some unforeseen complications we ended up booking with Escape Discovery Adventures. I'm glad we did as it was a great experience! We had a great guide named Daryl and the van we were in was extremely comfortable! It was a small group tour...

MCG and an Engagement?!

Engagement As mentioned in the previous post, we ran into the couple that was the inspiration for the proposal graffitti. Rewinding to our first day visit to St. Kilda, Photos had mentioned that one of his bucket list items was to photograph subjects in another country. We had joked about putting out a craigslist ad for a free photo shoot but we weren't really serious about it. In the evening we...

So we grabbed an early lunch and tried our best not to fall asleep in a small coffee shop until we...

Our plan today was to head to the Hobart Waterfront to explore battery point and the Salamanca area. We had just arrived and were about to start exploring the area when Photos started feeling nauseous. We popped into a nearby coffee shop to let him rest and see how he felt. Unfortunately he started feeling worse so we decided to go home and let him rest. Photos went straight to bed (probably the...

Exploring Tasmania

Tasmania It was a day of travel as we would depart Alice Springs en route to Melbourne. We would have a short layover in Melbourne before flying again to Hobart, Tasmania. Because of its size, we decided to rent a car in Tasmania. This was an "experience" as it was the first time either Photos or I would be driving on the "other" side of the road. The first few moments were wrought with...
