Month: April 2004

I’m now in broome, again, it’s dry season now and 30 – 35 every day, you have to love broome, i’m learning to surf. the surf is maybe 2ft high! so, learning to dodge big arse jelly fish is more accurate. but mostly i’ve been on the beach in a ute.

see the legendary holden HK in my little video with a jack johnson soundtrack. it’s apt.

at the moment i’m looking for a job, but with as little effort as possible. there is so much not to do here, if i have a job it will really get in the way of stuff. – like today for example i made a 44 second video!

so traveling is about experiences, and i’ve had the best one yet.
flying a small plane through massive clouds was AMAZING.
i got to fly uncle tim’s plane most of the way from karratha to broome (600 km), except for take off and landing! flying through the clouds is something i always imagined would be cool to do, following the contours of a cloud, flying through gaps, slowly swooping and and turning as though you’re dodging a 7 story marshmallow at 9500ft.
FUCKING ACE, my mouth was wide open for half the flight !

also to confirm an earlier travel entry there really isn’t anything here, plenty of nothing as far as the eye can see.
it’s a whole lot nicer from above though.

landing in broome…

i’m now in karratha with uncle tim and aunty judy. an amazing couple whom i’ve never really had the chance to get to know before. inspirational at the least.

mum’s here, we’ve just been down south for a nice 3 days in margaret river. i’ve got really into my sem sav blancs. oh the backpacking life style! as well as drinking white wine and chatting to mum i got mashed by a HUGE wave, which was a good experience, but not one to try daily.
