Dads Unauthorised Travel Blog - Two Virgins but only one Christmas Miracle

Sometimes it's just best not to know what is happening whilst the girls are travelling. I mean, I know we only get the edited highlights anyway, but there was a bit of a throw away comment from Meg one evening, in between visiting a Tropical Rainforest and scuba diving on the Great Barrier Reef about doing a bungee jump. Is it odd that my first thought was is she covered on her insurance? Well it's too late now, and things went well, so check out her amazing video. At least she was heading towards water rather than dry land!

As I get older, I have become more wary of heights, so not only would you never in a month of Sundays get me jumping off a high platform attached to a bit of elastic, you wouldn't even get me walking up to the platform. Ellie was sat watching events unfold with a beer in hand, now that is more like it! 

Dads Unauthorised Travel Blog - A Paranormal Experience

Well the girls have been away for 5 weeks on their backpacking adventure (it feels like they have been gone for months). After what appeared to be a bit of an indifferent start in Melbourne, with a combination of body clock adjustment and cold and wet weather things have certainly picked up. Sydney looked amazing, no shortage of tourist spots there and the weather has turned into glorious hot sunshine. They have made their way up the east coast, visiting Byron Bay, Gold Coast, Fraser Island, Whitsunday Island, (I've probably missed some) all look absolutely stunning. I've shared some of the photographs in this blog.
