Redrocks Get back, soon on Redrocks
Jetlag : 9 hours 23 hours in the plane and a stop in Malaysia, but now I'm here. Everything in english. I've heard a few words in french, but not as much as in London or New-York, so it's OK. First week in Sydney, the second one in Canbera. Yesterday,...
What a curious idea ! Sometimes, you move to take another accommodation less far than few hundreds meters, out of the plan. I was walking to the central station when I saw, in a dead end, a old depot but seeming like a clean area. It’s not always like...
New Zealand is like its reputation, wonderful and amazing. As a guy said to me, “in New Zealand, you can have four seasons in a day”. This morning was cloudy and it was frosty. (You can see the glacier on the pic...) Then the sun shone in a blue sky....
At the beginning, the humpback whales appear just below the surface The first two hours were a bit stressful and at the end a little boring. It’s a common feeling when you’re expecting to get something and nothing is happening, nothing at all what we...
Today, I’ve decided to show you a beautiful area in Sydney. You will be surprise. Many times, I told how much Sydney is gorgeous. Not only the City and the Rocks, but North Sydney, the river, the coast, some suburbs too, Sydney in its all. Longueville...
Aujourd’hui, j’ai decidé de vous montrer un bel endroit de Sydney. Vous serez étonnés. Plusieurs fois, je vous ai dit combien Sydney est fabuleux. Pas seulement la City et les Rocks, mais le nord de Sydney, la rivière, la cote, quelques quartiers et faubourgs...
Les 2 premières heures étaient un peu stressantes et un peu ennuyeuses à la fin. C’est un sentiment courant quand vous venez pour quelque chose et que rien ne se passé, rien pour ce que nous étions venus faire. Mais être patient, une fois encore, nous...
La Nouvelle Zélande est comme sa réputation, merveilleuse et étonnante. comme me disait un gars, "En NZ, tu peux avoir 4 saisons en un jour". Ce matin était nuageux et c'était gelé. Ensuite, le soleil brillait dans un ciel bleu. Ensuite, le vent, venant...
Last days down under. I've made a very good trip. I'm glad for having met Kuyacak and Gilchrist families. Thanks to them, once more. I give you a few figures about my trip, just for fun. The country is huge, so I've collected how many K's I've made since...
Décalage horaire de 9 heures. 23 heures d'avion et un arrêt en Malaysie, mais je suis ici maintenant. Tout est en anglais. J'ai entendu quelques mots en français, mais pas autant qu'à Londres ou New-York, donc ça va. Ma première semaine à Sydney, la seconde...
Quelle curieuse idée ! Parfois, tu déménages pour prendre un autre logement à moins de quelques centaines de mètres, pas prévu. Je marchais vers la gare central quand je vis, dans une voie sans issue, un vieux dépôt mais paraissant net. Ce n’est pas toujours...
Derniers jours ici-bas. J'ai fait un très bon voyage. Je suis heureux d'avoir rencontré les familles Kuyacak et Gilchrist. Merci à eux, une fois encore. Je vous donne quelques chiffres au sujet de mon voyage, juste pour le plaisir. Le pays est énorme,...
I came back to Sydney last week, and stayed in Glebe, a suburb near Darling Harbor. And once more, I’ve found gorgeous the Opera House. My roommate was friendly but drunk every evening, so not funny at the end of the day ; I couldn’t understand half of...
They opened their business last week and hope having success. Perhaps, it's the smallest creperie in the world. As you can see, the shop is in a Morris Column (I haven't found the word in English, yet). They are from Paris and Tours. So, when they invited...
After Tasmania, I made a stop in Melbourne to rent a car in the City. (I forgot my International License at Sydney, so I stayed in the City more days than I planed, and could go to Tasmania as soon as I received it). It was fun to explain the way at an...
I am in Blue Mountains now, about 2 hours from Sydney. Once more, the mountains are beautiful, with rocks, trees, waterfalls and cliffs. After only fifteen minutes walking, you are in the jungle. The forest is dense. In Tasmania, it was impenetrable,...
You can understand, in the famous book, why Nicholas Hawthorne can’t find his way. In a few outback areas, even if snakes and other wild beasts are sleeping, when you walk five minutes on the perpendicular to the road or the track, you have many risks...
I left Canberra this morning to Melbourne by bus and train. Since my departure, I changed my kind of trip to become a solo backpacker. The way is to discover the country and using the BP’s hotels. So, it’s really different than I’ve done, but a good way...
The week has been busy and pretty nice. I've met Cana's family and I've seen lots of different things. Sydney is a beautiful city and the diversity on this area is huge. Palm beach and wales beach, the coast between Bondi and Cougee, the river. I had...
Arriving in Canberra by bus from Sydney. Christina and Donna met me at the terminal and shown me Canberra from the top of a mountain. The town spreads in a large area, between mountains, in the bush. At the beginning of the 19th century, people were only...
Flying to Hobart. Weather is wet and cloudy. One more, I am surprise about the neighbourly relationship in Australia. In the plane, we discuss with our seat neighbour like we know ourselves. Pretty good. The Island is beautiful. Devils, tiger snakes (the...
The desert was a great experience. First K’s, on the only one road, put you in an other country ; nothing at all around, salt lakes white or rose, near to Port Pirie, some lambs are died on fields, near the sheep flocks, probably due to snakes or others...
Arriving in night at Cross Station. The railway was in trouble and we took the bus for the last 4 hours, but with delay. Never mind. I’m on the way to my accommodation. First feeling. Streets are dark, few lights, but nothing to compare with the luminous...
Everybody knows this boat here. I took this photo in the morning. Yes, I know that the bay is on the north of the city, but the sun shines on the north. Tout le monde connait ce bateau ici. J'ai pris cette photo ce matin. Oui, je sais que la baie est...
Uluru and Kata Tjuta were gorgeous during sunset and sunrise, and all the day (if the weather is not too hot : 65°C in summer). When you walk in Kings Canyon, you can see the Eden Garden in a hole between cliffs, in the middle of the desert. You can't...
