Does Runescape Accept Mastercard Gift Cards

Sydney - Canberra - Melbourne


trip to 4-drive wagon in a Combi-4W (from Sydney to Melbourne)





trip after a few hours we finally arrived in the Blue Mountains. The weather was perfect, not a cloud in the sky and we had a point on the lock out in Karooma a good view of the Three Sisters (the symbol of the Blue Mts). Then we made our way to a good and "cost" camp. We found one (well we already knew from other backpackers that there is a beautiful place) camp, which costs nothing and stood next to a beautiful stream. There we pitched our tent and tried to fire wood for a campfire (stand on the highway always a sign that the risk for wildfire is high or low, and here in the Blue Mts was no danger). In the night it rained and was much colder than ego have thought (Luckily I thought along and for 12 € ($ 20) bought a sleeping bag, but not in K-mart ^ ^).




















The next morning we went a little early, we drove back to Karooma and there we visited the cascades, waterfalls and cliffs in the area. In the afternoon we drove on to the Levona Caves (Tropfsteinhoehlen). We had a mighty view of many caves, forests and a great, almost tuerkiesgruenen lake. There I made many acquaintances with lizards, insects and snakes (but not dangerous ^ ^).




















evening Thats has a fire and we were really awake because it was Anna's birthday (we celebrated in the national park to our campsite with a little wine, a bonfire spektikulaeren and a small cake Cole (Coles is the 2 cheapest market in Australia, the third is Aldi)).




















The next day we went back away from the Blue Mountains back almost to Sydney , Wollongong up to Kiama. There was a "blowhole", a hole from which, if on the big waves, water was shooting up. Unfortunately, the ocean is too quiet and only once did a little bit out. Then we drove to a highway rest stop where I am talking again with a few Frenchmen have




















(if already on the car Liberte ^ ^ is) On the following day we went into the country. To try out our 4Wheel drive, we drove a route that is not paved. So we drove 40 km on such a road, we saw Kangoroos 5 m vorbeihupfen entfehrt of us and the car then remained hanging on a mountain (all Kuehwasser was consumed, and have been waiting for new nachgegossen Coolant and then he went back) as we track this geschaft, we were then on Ner Plateau. Looked almost like in the Alps or in Ireland, but it was a bit hotter.




















After some time we reached Canberra, the capital of Australia. There we visited the National Gallery of Art and the old and new government building. Canberra itself is an amazing city, very busy gardeners are here, all at the temperature and the dryness of all the parks to keep blooming, although that probably will cost a whole lot of water (well, for they have a lake so ^ ^) the parks and buildings built perfectly and the new Parliament can in a line the old parliament, see the parks, fountains, and the war monument. We stayed 2 days in the city (but we camped outside) and then we headed for the Snowy moutnains



















The Snowy Mountains is the highest mountain in Australia. There was a very different flora and 6 months should be on those of snow, but we had no cloud in the sky and the sun has burned down properly. We drove only used the main road and then on the Snowy River National Park we have a bent to again a bit rumzufahren with 4x4. That was another really cool trip, which was nice Duerchschnittsgeschwindigkeit condemned under 50 km / h, but it was gone. We drove along a river and because I had to drive so slowly, we took many pictures from the car. We then we crossed the border into Victoria healed, again at a Tropfsteinhoehle (we were not pure, but made ne nice walk after all rumgefahre) and late evening we finally arrived at the coast to Paradise Beach. Thus, all beaches are, kilometers long and almost not a soul seems to bathe. When I asked those who were still at the campsite, why no one immediately took a bath and I met backpackers from Germany and Schweitz. The locals say the area SE of swarming sharks (like most beaches on the south coast) and therefore should take care, moreover, the waves are very high (jeeeeehaaaa ^ ^) and the water is cold (I do not understand the problem ^ ^ ). Well because the very night and was no shower in the vicinity, I am, despite my instinct, not gone into the water, because all the backpackers and a couple of young Australians made a bonfire and we sat down to do so. In the evening we also got to know a shark fishermen, who showed us one of the teeth (unfortunately the picture is not there, but just before you is the ^ ^).



The next morning I saw one of the caught sharks, was just too small (only 1 m long) and that day was absolute fire ban (because of more than 40 degrees, drought and storms).


After these tough trails, we go at last to a large town, to Melbourne. Melbourne is like any other big city in Australia, a huge Netzwerg of suburbs and are very balanced, so you will always home after the party ^ ^


The "old town" is built almost like a chess board (which the city eig make somewhat smaller leaves than Sydney and Brisbane). There was only a minimum of 10 hostels, the bursts still for 4 people had, for this week start the Australian Open. The Night Life Melbourne we were not able to enjoy, but I'll even drive home from Melbourne. We were only in a fun karaoke bar, but was let go from 3 garnix clock.

The next morning we got up early and then went off to the Australian Opens. Unfortunately, now the players are not yet known, but still had a lot going on. There are 22 tennis courts and a really large place in the top games. Unfortunately, I will not notice the top games, but the results come on the radio vll ^ ^


That evening we parted after the last meal together. It was really very funny with the two, vll we see them again in Darwin, but I believe that I they meet again in Germany would.
Yes that's it then again with the cities, now there only once on the 1,000 km forests, national parks, islands, stalls, deserts and Halbwuesten, until we finally arrive in Adelade.

Happy New Year to Christmas





















After Chris and I have finished the work in Kooroon, We went with the last son of the Browns, Walter, to Toowoomba to look for a car. We have made us smart after private buyers, but since the cars were not so good, so we went to a cardealers who had us Walter also recommended. There we found a Subaru, 1991 Year 4 Wheel Drive, Air Conditioning and 5 seats. The car is very easy to drive and looks from the inside almost 9 years younger. Then we bought this for $ 4,300 with all the bells and whistles, insurance, registration, etc., and then we went from Towoomba direction Byron Bay. There we wanted to stay a night, but since we were picked up by park rangers and son had to go on (by 3 clock at night !!!!) and then absolutely dog we were on a rest stop on the highway. Then the next morning I drove from the service station to Sydney (it was the 31 ^ ^). Sorry, we did not have enough time, all the places on the way to look at us, but I get the in any case, even after ^ ^










At 6 clock in the evening we were in a suburb of Sydney, and then drove to the center. There, by this time everything was full, we were lucky that we have found a space close to the bridge. We waited for 5 hours (not as long as a few other people who had already reserve a space early by 9 clock ^ ^). There we met Koreans also very funny and a couple of Tailand celebrate New Year and that we (we actually want to meet other people from the same flight, but they were all somewhere else). The fireworks were really spectacular, have many photo's and videos made were, unfortunately, cracker and so banned throughout Sydney, otherwise I might as well correct many rumgeschmissen ^ ^










At 3 we took the last train and headed for the car, where we slept again. The next day we went to bondi beach and after that to Torben and the other people in the too were our way. They had a place at a park where we have almost only other backpackers. We stayed there until 5 January and there I learned a lot of people know and many tips and tricks for travel (car repair, special places, cheapest goods ...). We got all kinds of Zeuch from K-mart (the cheapest and best market in Australia, you get there really almost everything ^ ^) and then we went to Anna and Antonia (2 German, I also met at the airport in Frankfurt) los (well we had a small problem, the cable to the car battery was not fully secured and therefore he was not at the beginning).
