Adelaide, Australia

Phew! Sorry for the long delay between updates. I've spent the last three days on a bus tour of the Great Ocean Road and surrounds. I have about five million pictures (give or take) of things like the Twelve Apostles, lots of cool beaches, etc, etc.

I also went on a wine tour in Melbourne to the Yarra valley, which was very nice. Met Steve the Army Engineer and his friends and had a laugh with them and watched Steve repeatedly get in trouble from the tour guide.

Oh, and before that spent my Australia Day dancing at a huge mega-bar called the Espy in Melbourne with some British girls.

And I just finished a flurry of bookings over the past hour and a half for the next 11 days of my trip. Which include:
  • Staying two nights in Adelaide at the hostel I'm at now, Backpack Oz. I splurged for a private room even. I could use some solitude after three days packed in a bus with the same 22 people.
  • Flying to Alice Springs On Saturday.
  • Starting a three day tour to Uluru (Ayer's Rock) on Sunday.
  • Flying to Perth on Wednesday
  • Staying in Perth for at least 4 days. I have to leave from there on the 17th.
It''s an exhausting life I lead.

Now I am going to go scrounge up something to eat, before meeting up with the people from the tour for drinks!
