Surfers Paradise

August 5, 2012 by Beth Meyer

Surfers Paradise

We decided to stop for a few nights in Surfers Paradise, which we assumed (based on the name) that it was a chill, laid-back, surf town where we’d relax before heading to Fraser Island. What we got was a mini Australia version of Miami. It even looks like Miami when you’re driving in over the […]

First to see the sunrise!

August 3, 2012 by Beth Meyer

First to see the sunrise!

On our last morning in Byron Bay, we woke up extremely early and set out to the Cape Bryon Lighthouse to watch the sunrise. If you have been paying attention in previous blog posts, you’ll know that this is the most eastern point of Australia. Thus, making us first to see the sunrise. I also […]

Olympics

August 3, 2012 by Beth Meyer

Olympics

The word that best describes the coverage of the Olympics in Australia is CRAP. There is one local channel that shows event and mostly they’ve been showing the worthless events no one cares about (with the exception of swimming). Unfortunately (for me), those are the ones Australia has the best chance to medal. Oh yeah, […]

Sunset, moonrise & a drum circle

Sunset, moonrise & a drum circle

We walked down to the beach in Byron to watch the sunset and the (almost) full moon rise. And there was a drum circle. Really a relaxing and enjoyable evening.

Byron Bay

August 1, 2012 by Beth Meyer

Byron Bay

After a 14 hour Greyhound bus ride, we arrived in Byron Bay, a chill, hippy, surf town. Cape Byron is the eastern most point of mainly Australia. During our first morning in Byron Bay, we walked around town, walked down to the beach, stocked up at the grocery store and went back to hang out […]

Sydney

Sydney

In Sydney, our hostel was right across the street from the central train station, so it was conveniently located (extremely convenient because I’m already dyyyyinnng from carrying my crap. I know. I know. Oh & Myles, you were so right & I should’ve brought a rolling pack of sorts. We’ve seen sooo many in our […]

Country #2: Australia; Melbourne & the Great Ocean Road

Country #2: Australia; Melbourne & the Great Ocean Road

We made it to the second country of our RTW trip and landed in Melbourne, Australia on Monday. After checking into our hostel, we were taken out to dinner at a tasty steak restaurant by my old boss Adrian. It was awesome! Probably the best meal we’ve had thus far. Oh yeah, and I tried […]

New Zealand: In a Nutshell

New Zealand is stunning and a must visit. I loooove it so much!! Here are my thoughts on the country, in a nutshell. Phrases: Sweet As (awesome), Kia Ora (hello; Maori origin), If everything turns to custard (our Milford Sound bus driver kept saying this and I loved this!) Fun Facts: New Zealand sources of […]
