We are happily getting use to life in the campervan, helped by the air con! Today it’s a sweltering 40 degrees and we are hiding out in the Bellingen Library reading lots of books, researching Austrailian animals and generally keeping cool! Continue reading

The Blue Mountains in the camper van
After a whirl wind couple of days in fabulous Sydney we excitedly picked up our camper van yesterday! We could hardly contain our excitement, a little (well actually not that little!) home on wheels!!!!! Continue reading
A quick stop in Sydney
We flew into sunny Sydney yesterday and were greeted by 38 degrees! Phew 😅 we all felt a little like we were melting by the time we arrived at our new Airbnb! Thankfully we have a lovely airy room with a little breeze blowing through and some cool shutters to keep the suns heat out. Continue reading
Healesville sanctuary
Just a quick little post about today’s trip to Healesville Sanctuary!

A little time out in the countryside
When we were planning our time in New Zealand, I thought it wouldn’t be complete without us experiencing some of the rural farm life. New Zealand first established farms for cattle and sheep when the first settlers arrived here and today its big business and there’re about 4 times more wollies than people! Continue reading
Cathedral Cove and Tairua
Well hands down this sure is a beautiful corner of the world! We have continued our beach bum lifestyle and spent 2 days exploring the coastline around the area!
Yesterday morning we woke up in our cute little shed and as much as we would have loved to while away the day in the gorgeous sunny garden and bush bath we had booked a boat trip so off we went! Continue reading
Lazy days on the coromandel
This week has been all about the coromandel beaches! We’ve turned into right beach bums and been trying to decide on our perfect beach!
It’s a tough life considering the fineness of sand, clearness of water, added extras of beach swings hanging from Pohutukawa trees and then of course there’s the Continue reading
