I love that Sydney has so many Fruit Bats. I could have happily sat watching them fly around all evening.

Last evening in Sydney.
Then there’ll be celebrations of Pride 🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️in Perth to look forward to and I also need to start thinking of Christmas which is really hard to get into the spirit of when the seasons are all topsy turvy.

I know we shouldn't objectify people (ahem🤭) but damn 🤤.
Apologies to the random man I saw on the street today. Sorry not sorry.

Took a stroll and hung out at Shelly Beach 🏖️ Getting lots of vitamin D.

Walked across the Sydney Harbour Bridge, then explored the market at The Rocks and had lunch underneath the bridge and then went to see Back to the Future musical.
I’m shattered but I’d say that’s a pretty decent Saturday to be had.

Guess what?
I found ANOTHER hill to climb!
I nearly missed the fact Auckland is actually built on top of a volcano. Apparently Mount Eden is dormant and last erupted 28000 years ago. So fingers crossed it’s not likely to become active again any time soon. Especially whilst I’m scaling the summit.

Melbourne was more than I could have hoped for.
A city that in small ways reminds me of New York and San Francisco but ultimately is a special place all of its own.
Tomorrow I’m off to New Zealand so see you soon Auckland.

Every time I visit Perth I make sure to visit Kings Park not only for the view but so I can reminisce about when I used to work for the circus 🎪

After 4 weeks and 5233kms it’s time to say goodbye.
From north to south and the places in between.
To lakes, mountains, ports and beaches.
Through blazing heat and torrential downpours.
She carried me across Western Australia.

My time with Towanda! is coming to an end and even the weather has turned sullen.
Turns out when I first picked Towanda! up my mum had exclaimed to her husband the likelihood of me not getting that far in her.
Thousands of kms later Towanda! didn’t falter once even if I had a breakdown or two.
