Kangas, Koalas, Kockatoos Oh My!

Adam here!

This was a weekend of firsts. It was the first time I saw Kelly this week (S&C has been running her over), our first Aussie holiday (thank you Queen for having a birthday) and our first true adventure down under.

Kelly and I rented a car, which is only significant because they ride on the "wrong" side of the road here. And in case you would ever forget there are plenty of signs to remind you along the way. We adventured along "one of the world's most scenic roads": The Great Ocean Road. We passed beautiful beaches, the home of Quiksilver Surfing, a golf course covered in kangas, brilliantly dense rain forests, giant eucalyptus trees, sleeping koalas, humbling geological seascapes, giant waterfalls, squaking cockatoos and fabulous vistas. Yes all of this was on the same road and covered in 3 days!

Each little section of this weekend's journey has its own unique story. If you'd like more details, feel free to throw some comments up on the blog and we can provide an additional thought or two.

Pix to come over the next few days as my USB cord has yet to be unpacked...

Missing everyone. Keep in touch.

Adam
