Sorry for the long hiatus. In addition to adding some new posts (we haven’t been in Australia this whole time!) we’ve also changed up the look and feel of the site.

We’ve added posts for Week 6 and Week 7 and have also added a Random Trip Counters post. We have also updated our Travel Map through the end of our trip, December 17th! Hit the links above to go directly to the posts, or better yet, use the new site layout – we hope it’s a bit easier to use than the previous version.

Ready to say goodbye to so-so weather, we left the east coast of Australia and flew west to Perth, a city that is so remote from the majority of inhabited Australia that many Aussies never make it here! It’s a land full of sun and sandy beaches, a stop on the World Surfing League, and home to an amazing wine region!

Hello! We’re still alive and well, just now finally getting back to some updates for the blog. Despite what the posts might indicate we have been quite a few places in the last 5 months and are actually back in Australia – but more on that later. In this weekly post we are wrapping up our time in Queensland before heading to Sydney!
