Hey hey hey it's cole here for another update. I have been hearing that some of you would like me to post more often, well to be honest lately i haven't done a lot of exciting things. I've just been working here in brisbane. I haven't been doing a lot in the evenings because last week Queensland got some of the heaviest rains in record. The dams were 98% full in Brisbane and other places around Queensland were flooding. But, I have my final day of work tomorrow, and on Saturday night I am flying into Melbourne and continuing my travelling down there. My plans for the next couple of months is to see southern Australia and some of the west. So I want to be in Melbourne for about 10 days probably, then i will hopefully catch a ferry from melbourne that can bring me over to Tasmania. Tasmania is a island off of the Mainland of Australia, but is a state of the country and from what I've heard very nice to visit. So I would like to do that for about a week i think. When I get back to Melbourne I will travel down the Great Ocean Road which is just outside of Melbourne and is only a 200km stretch of highway that runs right along the ocean, and other travellers have said that it is very beautiful scenery and in that short distance there is so much to see. I am thinking of renting a car or campervan for that with a couple of other people then taking it all the way up the south coast to a city called Adelaide. See the city and sights then from there catch a train to Perth which is in Western Australia. Very few people live in Western Australia, but it is also said to be nice to visit and have great beaches. I think by the time i do all of that it will take roughly 2 months. So that is my rough plan for the next while. I am probably going to have to stop and work one more time as well, so it will be interesting to see how that all works out, but I'm looking forward to the experience it will be. I am excited to start actually travelling again. But, my time in Brisbane was good. I met heaps of cool people and probably learned more about actuall Australian culture than i will anywhere else from working and spending time with australians rather than other travellers.
I will keep you all updated on how it goes, and how well i stick to that plan. Until then take care
