    Bondi to Austinmer

    September 22, 2020 in Australia ⋅ ☀️ 20 °C

    Left Bondi and drove to Otford lookout and cooked beef satay with rice just before it got dark.
    Got petrol so then drove on to Austinmer and stayed for the night.
    Woke, had breakfast and went for a surf. There had been a tiger shark caught the day before as a dead whale washed up on Wollongong beach.
    Men stopped to look at our van and gave us advice on where to go.    Read more

    Day 2

    Austinmer to Kiama

    September 23, 2020 in Australia ⋅ ☀️ 20 °C

    Before we left Austinmer we got some drone shots.
    We had lunch at Bulli Beach and reorganised the van 🙃 again......
    We drove to Kiama. There was a really nice market on which we walked around. We drove to Kiama blowhole, it was cool. We cooked egg fried rice with prawns for dinner. Was delish.
    As we were going asleep Jake laughed and said imagine "imagine if I farted in here" and we laughed about how unfair it would be. Then next thing one just and I quote "slipped out and there was nothing i could do" it was so so so bad. I started to choke. I jumped and ran out of the van while Jake continued to lie there so i shouted at him to get outtt of the van as the smell was lingering on him 🤢I opened all the doors to try air it out. I warned him to not come back until he had stopped. He done a few farts outside and then came back. He was lucky!    Read more

    Day 3

    Kiama to Jervis Bay

    September 24, 2020 in Australia ⋅ ⛅ 16 °C

    We left Kiama and on route to Jervis Bay we stopped at the seven mile beach. We walked it and found some really nice shells. We ran the way back and I ran/walked 5k! We had our first outdoor shower and Jake had his fully naked 😅. We drove on to Jervis Bay. We went to Cave Beach in Jervis Bay and saw so many wild kangaroos and even babys in pouches. It was amazing to see. We drove back into the town on Vincentia and stayed in a car park at a coles as there was so many restrictions as to where you could stay all around the area.Read more

    Day 4

    Jervis Bay to Batemans Bay

    September 25, 2020 in Australia ⋅ ☀️ 15 °C

    We left Jervis Bay and drove to Batemans Bay. On the drive to it there was so much greenery it looked like Ireland. Loads of farms had like little ponds made to gather rain water and use the water for sprinklers.
    The weather was bad when we got there. So we had yoghurt/banana for lunch. Then for dinner as it was too windy and wet we got a pizza.
    We stayed at Corrigans Beach for the night    Read more

    Day 5

    Batemans Bay to Dalmeny

    September 26, 2020 in Australia ⋅ 🌙 13 °C

    We woke up and made rasher sandwiches for breakfast. Jake decided to get some drone fottage around Corrigans Beach before we left. The battery started to say it was low so the drone was returning back to us which was grand but then it started to go back up higher. We had no idea why and started to panic a bit. Jake started running out towards the edge of the sea and tried to get back in control of the controls as we were afraid it would land in the sea. The battery completely went and we had so idea where it had gone. We didn't know if it was in the sea, on the sand or in the bush area which was above the water. Jake had just started running like a nd man and people were looking at us prob wondering what on earth is going on 😅 It was a nightmare. We searched all the bottom of one side and then Jake went above and we went all along one side together. I went back to the van and drove it around to where Jake was. Then we started to search the other side. We watched a video on YouTube to try find it then and realised there is a thing you can click call find my drone. We done it and it seemed to suggest the drone was the other side of the beach where we hadn't checked yet. It also said it could make the drone beep so when we were near we tried it but the battery was so dead so it didn't work. The Jake went below and I kept watching the map and we found it in the rocks!!!! After over 2 hours searching we were so so relieved.
    We left Corrigans Beach so greatful that we had found it. I don't think we could have left without it tbh! We drove further down the coast and seen loads of nice beaches on the way. We arrived at Dalmeny. Jake went for a surf and after we found warm showers!!!! They were amazing and so nice as the weather was coldish and v windy. We had a really good sleep, especially JB knowing his baby was back in his arms. Not me his drone 🙃    Read more

    Day 6

    Dalmeny to Eden

    September 27, 2020 in Australia ⋅ 🌙 16 °C

    We had a really good sleep in Dalmeny. We were in camping area kind of but it was free. So it was a quite area and cars were not passing or anything.
    We looked up what we should do in the area. We drove to the Australia Rock. When we got there we noticed people looking out to sea and we could see 50-60 whales thrashing and breaching. It was crazy!!! So we rang boat companies in the area and managed to book in with a tour for 12.30.
    We made sandwiches and ate them and by the time we cleaned up etc we went down to the harbour and waited for the boat. At the harbour we saw a huge Manta Ray. We missed getting a photo of it as it was so unexpected to see!
    We got on the boat and we were surrounded by 20-30 humpback whales breaching and thrashing. It was incredible!! When they opened their mouths it smelt so so so bad you could smell it in the air it smelt like sewerage mixed with public toilets. The boat was so rocky which was scary at times but we couldn't stop laughing on it too. One whale thrashed it's tail for the whole time we were there and he was upside down 😅 after about an hour and a half watching them we went out to an island. We would have been happy to stay with the whales but it was part of the tour. We saw Australian and NewZeland sea lions. They were cool to see too.
    After the tour we drove to Eden and cooked our dinner when we got there too.
    It was the most incredible day. We didn't think we would get to see so many, we were so so lucky. 🐳    Read more

    Day 7

    Eden to Jervis Bay

    September 28, 2020 in Australia ⋅ 🌙 16 °C

    We woke up in Eden and drove to Aslings beach to cook our breakfast. After we cleaned up Jake went for a surf and I videoed him on the drone and I got some cool shots of Jake considering I amnt great at it. Then we went to the whaling museum which was good and we read up about a local killer whale called Tom from the Eden area and there was quite a few mad stories.
    We drove back up to Batemans Bay and cooked our dinner and then we drove back up to Jervis Bay to stay there for the night to save us driving in the morning.    Read more

    Day 8

    Jervis Bay to Kiama

    September 29, 2020 in Australia ⋅ ⛅ 14 °C

    We parked in a car park at Jervis Bay (quite hard to park all around this area as there are a good few rules).
    We went to Sailors Grave Beach and done our workout there. It was very hard for me! And even Jake thought it was tough.
    Then we went to Hyams Beach. I think it is my favourite in all of Australia so far. It is ment to have the whitest sand and it really didn't disappoint. The water was s clear too.
    We were swimming in the sea when I noticed something move in the water a good bit behind Jake. We jumped out and set up the drone and Jake got some really amazing shots of a pod of 16 dolphins! It was so so cool.
    Then we drove to Honeymoon Bay and it was nice too. We then set off to drive to Kiama for the night and stopped off at Gerringong to cook our dinner.
    Blow holes must set off Jakes arse too as he farted again tonight and nearly finished me off. He was kicked out until he was ready to come back in.    Read more

    Day 9

    Kiama to Sydney

    September 30, 2020 in Australia ⋅ ☁️ 17 °C

    We woke at Kiama. The wind was quite crazy! So we didn't cook breakfast there.
    We drove down to the beach and done our stretches and a small bit of exercise. We took the yoga mats and roller out of the roof and put other things back up there like the fan.
    We drove to the other side of the beach to cook breakfast as it was less windy. When we were there we cleaned out the van and reorganised it a bit and cleaned fridge etc.
    Then we drove to Fitzroy falls. Jake was gonna get a shot with the drone but it ended up being too windy. We set back on the road to Sydney. I rang Prince Alfred Park pool and booked us in to use the shower there. We felt like new people after it.
    We then drove to Bondi and decided to get food out as it was late. We got a johnny gios pizza and ogallo chips. We drove on the the MacQuarie lighthouse and parked there for the night. It was quite warm so we had all the windows open.    Read more

    Day 10

    Bondi to Palm Beach

    October 1, 2020 in Australia ⋅ ⛅ 19 °C

    We didn't have a great sleep as it was noisey and such heavy rain. We woke before 6 so Jake watched the man-u match and some UFC. Mam and Dad called me. We couldn't get up as we were waiting for the rain to stop. We then drove to Bondi as I was bursting for a wee. Jake went for a surf. The surf board Jake is hoping to sell today fell and cracked which is not ideal. The guy said he might still pay $30 for it.
    After we went to camp cove where it was roasting. Then We drove to Palm Beach on route we stopped to cook lunch/dinner. We had Hoki fish which was actually not that nice it was v fishy. We managed to mask it with loads of veg and sauce though but it did repeat on his later that eve 🤢
    We arrived at Palm Beach and walked all around and up to the lighthouse. It was so cool seeing all where Home and Away is filmed. It's also such a nice area too.    Read more
