Mr Dzeryn's trip to Australia.

When we picked him up from the airport 10 days ago he walked straight past us in a daze. His eyes were hazy and he looked like he hadn't slept for days. He hadn't! After trying to stay awake and failing by lunchtime, and after having 10 days to finally get used to the time difference and sleep through the night he's just got back onto the plane to jet back off towards England again; poor bugger!

We've had a busy 10 days and have sailed, driven and walked all over the place in order to get a real sense of Australia. lol You've already seen the extensive photo collection from Kangaroo Island and have suffered the 20min commentary on the pictures that goes along with it. Needless to say we did have a good time. However, it was FREEZING! No one told me that the island was so cold! It must be about 5/6 degrees lower. I only took my flipflops and I seriously regretted it! I did get to see some cool penquins at last and it was good fun :)


Mr Bogus and Lof really enjoyed their random 'conversations' which meant absolutly nothing to me - or anyone else for that matter. For example, If one of them said "Captain" it would make the other burst into fits of hysterical giggles for ages... mmmm crazy.

Apart from Kangaroo Island Mr Bogus also got to visit Cleelands Wildlife Park where we made sure that he got up close and personal to a Koala and some Kangas. A visit to Australia isn't complete without looking at the wildlife which Mr Bogus proclaimed to be "strange".





We also took him to Harndorf where, of course, it is OCKTOBER FEST! This led to all sorts of hilarious consequences as the gents hit the pub before lunch and began sampling the beers. I almost convinced Bogus to by a Digeridoo for Dunk but didn't quite manage it :( Was really funny though. I am certain that LOM will be itching to visit and sample some of the Schnitzle (How ever that's spelt)


After drinking the beer and visiting the knife shop - I know... why?
We then decided to go and visit the local chocolate factory. I was told it was really exciting.. Perhaps I've been spoilt by cadbury's world but a large warhouse full of sweets on sale with rooms to the side where someone might be making something but weren't on that day isn't anywhere near what any of us expected to find. I was amused by their signature chocolates though. For example, the chocolate cowpat - one of which Bogus devoured in the car on the way home. There was even a "Hereford"
cowpat. It was milk chocolate with a dollop of white chocolate ontop lol.

He also got to experience Australian cinema and "frozen coke" and a "spider" when we went to the SA museum to see the live redback. A spider of course is also a drink...
Here's a yummy one I ate. Lemonade, lime syrup and a dollop of icecream :)




We got some really ace pictures on our travels. Especially of the spring animals and babies. You can check out the kangaroo Island ones here and the others from Ants visit here :)
