July's the middle of winter, there. While you're not going to get snowed in, you're not going to be able to take advantage of the beaches, etc.
As long as its not like the soggy cold winters around here I'll be happy.
Low of 47
I don't know where you will be visiting but check out the temps here.
Damn. Now she's going to read this thead and rub it in.You're running out of excuses...
I'll definitely have to do some research and get a list going of all the things I would like to see.
that's not funny.Maybe Bush will go to war with Australia.
Yes, it does sound dumb.
Your personal ethics are commendable but how many tombstones have you read that said,
I suppose I'm in need of a long...long vacation away from Satan's Food Warehouse. In fact, I can't wait to get out of there completely.Your personal ethics are commendable but how many tombstones have you read that said,
"I wish I'd have worked more"?
Should I wait for a response?
Don't waste your time driving or flying out to that rock in the desert. Ayres rock is just that. A big rock sticking out of a whole lot of uninteresting desert.I'll definitely have to do some research and get a list going of all the things I would like to see.
I wonder if they have any haunted locations.
The northern Blue mountains were lovely, remote, and empty as hell. I stayed at the equivalent of a state park there and there was only one other camper in the place. Pack along a lot of beer and never pass up a gas station, it's a loooong way to the next one. I loved the rainforest and the hiking there, it was amazing. Bring comfortable broke in boots and be aware there are some nasty critters and plants there.
Yowza!Don't waste your time driving or flying out to that rock in the desert. Ayres rock is just that. A big rock sticking out of a whole lot of uninteresting desert.
That article was pretty interesting though. Have you been stung by a stinging tree?
Believe me, do it now. Once you're grown up and get married and have kids it's too darn late. I'm glad I spent my youth adventuring and living overseas for 12 years. If I had waited till I was "established" it would have been too late. Of course it helped living in Germany, England, Portugal, and Japan.
Every weekend was an adventure! I miss being young and having nothing but a few bucks, a backpack, and a Eurorail pass...
Nope, but I scraped off leeches and scrambled my ass off fearing crocs crossing a few streams. The snakes and spiders there are no joke either. Just like anyplace keep your wits about you and your hands to yourself.Yowza!

I bet something like going through a rainforest really gets your adrenaline pumping.
It was exciting. As well as humid, steep, and wet. It was beautiful though, waterfalls all over. Look at the national parks in Queensland. The area is seriously uninhabited though and enormous. Have a clue and don't just wade in, you need maps, a compass and a pack with a few necessities. It is the no-crap kind of wilderness that people get lost and die in. We weren't pros and stuck to reasonably marked trails, even then we had a few moments "WTF are we!" panic and backtracking. I have great pics and would do it all again in a heartbeat.
