    .. Finally looking forward to spend some time with Meike !

    I spent the last hours with the Hare's family.
    - It wasn't easy for me to say goodbye but I will try to think that I can see them all in a short time again !
    I can only repeat saying all the time 'I love you all and I am so thankful for the wonderful time with YOU - beautiful people !'

    Ange, Sam & Duncan brought me to the airport and they have met Meike which was so cool !
    .. To the Hare's: it was a valuable experience for me & I can't describe how happy I feel just beacuse I have met such incredible people during the last (10) months.
    But now its time to say bye - which is definitly not the last time !

    ELLIS BEACH

    Discovering this beautiful place

    Wonderful day, with lots of sunshine, beer, palms & beach ! Good mood

    Hanging out there for a few hours was a good good decision !

    Actually we tried to sleep at this place because lots of other people did it but in the camper.. While we had dinner (spaghettini carbonara) there was a ute coming with only one guy inside. He parked the car and stayed inside. Another car was following and did te same.
    After only a few minutes the ute left and thereupon the oter car aswell.
    I think it was a half an hour until this happened again with exactly the same cars !
    Meike and me put everything in the car and we went to the next campground ! Creeeeepy

    12th to the 15th of september

    'Trouble with big green ants'

    It was already dark when we arrived on the 12th in Airlie beach.
    That explains several things.. One of those things was that we parked right under a tree with a big ants net ! Great !!!
    Because of all the insects which visited our front lid while we were driving, the ants built a street over the car !
    Our work has been started
    I looked for a water-tap and tried to connect our pipe with the tap.. Failed
    Something fell off and the whole tap was starting a pool party ! Splash splash!
    Alrighti - the weather was wonderful - pretty sunny - so less a problem..
    A guy on the campground have seen that and joined the poolparty.
    He gave us another tool which suits so we were able to start the ants wash ! Not really easy because theese giants came over to me over the pipe. So another guy came over to stop the trouble with toxic.
    I needed a little while to work it out because of all this ants invasion. But we were all good.

    DONE

    AGNES WATER - TOWN OF 1770

    This day is one of my most legendariest days ever.
    The first thing we did in the morning: coffee & biscits
    Every morning begins like this for me and Meike.
    After this wonderful start in the day we went to the top of the town 1770 which is called by James cook who discovered this beautiful place in 1770 !
    A wonderful day continued..
    We set in the sunlight all morning long.. I spot a black point in the water - and after a while there were - whales !
    I love those days & these animals get me in trance ! Honestly !
    We had a wonderful wonderfully time there & we were enjoying it so much !!!!!!
    Those beautiful creatures.. Making there way back to the south with there calves.
    You are listening to the waves and the power of the ocean the whole time. Amazing !
    It's a pitty that those moments are so difficult to describe..

    During the day we had some problems with organisation which can be exhausting - but we did the right thing - spotted a beautiful and CHEAP campground right at the ocean - had a beer and good food - that's all we need to be happy.
    & than.. A Kookaburra pooed on me while epeliering my legs nice and soft - hopefully this brings luck to me !

    The sun went down & the time was flying away until we were counting the stars, listening to the sound of the grills, kookaburras, waves.. & a bit of music (North)
    Perfect camping ! Perfect atmosphere & lots of redwine !
    My thoughts today: I miss you all a lot ! I read some letters of my girls & can't describe this feeling - but you are missing here - somebody is thinking of you all day long - somebody wishes that you can be right here & enjoying all those things.. Somebody thinks: it's time to come home - miss my girls & home !

    Having a chat about shark attacs while hanging out at the beach.
    We finally arrived in Coffs Harbour - nearly the last place where we'll be, before Meike "will leave me"
    It's getting fresh down at the east coast & the mozzies are getting more !!!!
    There where thousands of them when we had dinner - - but it's still comfi as long as we have our mozzie candles & our pillows !!

    Our camp spot today - very lonely somewhere in the bush.
    It's actually just a very big camp site with a little forest where we decided to stay.

    REVIEW

    Once opon a time..
    On the 11th of November 2015 Lea and me started our journey to Australia. We met somebody in the plane, from Melbourne, who was sitting right next to us. This man was Bill.
    Bill is one of the people who were there for me the whole time, looking after me & carrying for me.
    Everything which follows based on our friendship.
    Lea and me started our work and holiday in Melbourne, a huge city down in the south of Australia. The plan was to find a job first - but that's not that easy as we thought. So after a few weeks looking for work in December Bill just sent us an email in the evening if we would like to go to Sydney - he will drive over with his wife Faye to visit the family.
    We were so lucky that we have seen this mail because Lea just checked them very late in the evening.
    I remember.. everything was in a rush to get all our stuff packed & everything was very exciting because we will see our 'flight-seat-neighbour' again - how funny is that ?

    The next time I have seen Bill, was actually just 2 months later after Lea and me have seen the most famous and beautiful spots of the east coast up to cairns in hot summer.
    Lea left & I was on my own now.
    I went to Emerald which is in central Queensland on a cattle farm.. because of some circumstances I decided to leave after a week & went back to Melbourne.
    Why Melbourne ? Because I knew - I could meet somebody to talk to when there are any problems or situations I can't handle with.
    So after a week back in Melbourne I catched up with Bill and Faye for a cuppa & they invited me for dinner at their house.
    It was wonderful to see them & to have the feeling that there are people who already know me a bit & I feel comfortable with.

    ?

    Isabelle (3) and Eliana (1), Grandpa Pilley who is Faye's dad, Ross Bills sister and Christin Bills cousin.
    Those beautiful people gave me a lot because of spending time together with lots of fun !
    I was chatting with grandpa Pilley every time about his story of life & about my decision why I came to Australia to make this big journey.
    Every time there was something else in my mind..
    my first thought I had about going to Australia ? It was about the wildlife !
    And I have lived my dream - to see it ! I spent lots of hours in front of my camera to get some good memories !
    I was fixed, relaxed & in big love with this huge, wide, giant ocean !!!
    When you got the chance to watch the clear blue water it will have lots of surprises for you to show.
    Another reason is that I tried to find out more about myself & the right way to go.
    I wanted to be independent - so I did !
    And it was the right decision ! All the people I have met - I have learned a lot about life !
    I got more trust in myself than before & I know that everything I do - I do it without fear ! & it will be the right thing - doesn't matter which result it will have ! It will show me an effect.
    I am pretty sure Grandpa Pilley could tell me about these things..
    He was listening carefully & had good advises for my journey one of them was: ENJOY !

    I will remember all the 'birthday-cake-moments' with Isabelle, who was more excited than everybody else.
    All moments with holding Eliana's hands to mastering a few of her very first steps in life !
    All the energy & happiness of Asher, Caleb & Noah. If I would be your sister - I would be the most proudest sister ever !!! You are all gorgeous - whatever you are doing !
    & once again - see you in Germany one day pleeease !!!
