We have arrived down under! Australia is still as great as Kami remembers it. We landed on Friday with all our gear, bike box intact, grabbed a rental car & headed to the Sunshine Coast. In Mooloolaba we found some Canadian friends (Shane & Robyn Smith & family) along with our Australian friends (Dale & Leslie Megli), spent a couple days with them, worked our bodies into their new clocks (still working on it), enjoyed a 4 hr walk, big waves and nearly 30 degrees... not hard to adjust to at all. Yesterday we went to Surfers Paradise on the Gold Coast, found more Canadian friends (Kevin & Ivy Birch & family) who let us crash on their ocean-view balcony... paradise indeed! And now we are on the way to our farm work "home" in Moree, a 6hr drive from the coast. They have been flooded for a long while, the harvest is ready but there's too much water to get to it, so we might hang out & wait for a week or so. We feel we cannot get enough sleep so this could be a great thing. We can't believe we are here, living this dream, enjoying the blessing and soon... Roos and Frogs (enjoy yeah sure ;)). Till more adventures occur... Us
