Wednesday, August 12.
We stayed in tropical Far North Queensland for a total of 6 nights — we split up that time between Port Douglas (relaxed, resort-y town) and Cairns (tourist-y). So we didn’t do much this day except switch hotels to the Shangri-La in the morning. The best part about our new hotel was the [...]

Hmm. I’m pretty predictable. I’ve neglected my trip report again. I’m totally finishing it no matter how long it takes.
Tuesday, August 11.
This was THE DAY. The day that we would get to cuddle a KOALA. The only reason Rob wanted to visit Australia. I’m not sure why and can’t seem to find a [...]

I can’t believe it’s October already. And only 1 week until my 30th birthday. WHAT.
Back to the trip recap…
Monday, August 10.
We took a tour up the Daintree Coast with Tony’s Tropical Tours. They were grrr-eat! Heh.
It was a really small, intimate group — only 6 of us plus our tour guide and driver Jonathan. One [...]

Short trip report update.
Sunday, August 9 – Our 1st anniversary!
We spent our first anniversary traveling to our next destination. Yay?

I already missed the Westin and its luxurious shower. *sigh*
We were headed to the tropical paradise of Far North Queensland for 6 days! We flew Qantas and I loved it. So much legroom [...]

I really need to do a TV post but I still have many planned vacation posts to do so here’s another installment…
Saturday, August 8.

I was starting to have internet withdrawal so we went to Macca’s (aka McDonald’s) for brekkie. I’m not sure why the Aussies gave it that nickname. Anyway, Macca’s has FREE WI-FI! [...]

Friday, August 8. Our first day in Oz!!! Woot.
While we spent 3 nights in Melbourne, we really only had 1 full day in the city (we spent all of Thurs travelling and the next day would be spent in Phillip Island, about 2 hours south). So we set out early to walk around explore.
The [...]

Hi there! I’ve been back for over a week now but have been in a bit of a vacation funk. Rob and I had SUCH an amazing time that it’s been pretty depressing getting back to normal and going back to work. I haven’t even completely finished unpacking or done any laundry. Like [...]

Rob tried to make a friend at the Great Barrier Reef…

The fish did not want to be his friend.
Off to Uluru tomorrow. Not sure if we’ll have internet access there… I’ll check back when I can.

Last week was so insane that I didn’t have time to write up a quick entry mentioning that I was headed off on my long-awaited vacation. Rob and I left for Manila on the 1st and now we’re in Melbourne! I’m in McDonald’s currently using their free wi-fi. Hehe. It’s been a fantastic vacation so [...]
