Flying to Melbourne and exploring St Kilda

ByMinion-Chris March 22, 2017 0 Comments
Arriving in Melbourne With a late night photographing the Southern Lights, and an early flight to Melbourne, Photos and I were already pretty tired by the time our flight was ready to depart. We arrived in Melbourne mid morning and had to kill a little time before getting the keys to our AirBnB. So we grabbed an early lunch and tried our best not to fall asleep in a small coffee shop until we...

Trouble in Hobart & Tasmanian redemption!

ByMinion-Chris March 20, 2017 2 Comments
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.

The first few moments were wrought with...

We were picked up by our tour guide Keith, in the Outback Tours Services vehicle. We had originally booked with another...

Royal National Park We had a full day planned in Royal National Park today. One of the things we really wanted to visit was the Wedding Cake Rock along the Coastal walk. So our friend Physio would drive us out to the National Park and we would make a day of it. Coastal Walk In order to get to Wedding Cake Rock, we would have to take a short 3-4 kilometer coastal walk. It must be something about...

Coastal Walk and Aladdin!

It'd only been two days but we already started feeling the "fullness" of the days we'd had in Sydney. Today we didn't have as many stops, so we were looking forward to a "more relaxed" day starting with a coastal walk. Bondi to Coogee Coastal Walk Fortunately Photo's cousins are very close to Bondi Junction Station/ So it made getting to Bondi beach extremely easy. A single bus (381) got us there...
