end of the adventure! In less than 12 hours I will take 'the flight that will take me back' in Italy.
These 5 days were not particularly relaxing, in fact. We moved from Sydney to Canberra, a city 'in my beautiful characterized by very wide streets, avenues and great little traffic. A city 'tidy as I expected.
We stayed two days in Canberra, just the time to visit the War Memorial Museum and nothing else.
I was surprised in listening to the guide (koreana) who spoke of the Australian soldiers as heroes who participated in the war in vietnam koreana and that ... seemed as if to say "we were we in Vietnam! we lost but we fought with all our strength for peace No matter how many Australian soldiers have died and under what circumstances, and the important 'to know that we were also us! "
we moved to Canberra from Melbourne: Melbourne too and I 'liked. Similar but less traffic in Sydney ...
A Melborne we can not find a rental car at the last moment and we have started our journey to the Great Ocean Road.
The car, unfortunately, was not spacious as the Ford Falcon chartered in Brisbane but has done his duty very well: low power consumption and Kai allowed to sleep on the passenger seat for 3 nights.
The only thing I can say about the Great Ocean Road ': incredible. On the one hand and almost endless pristine hills, on the other side of the ocean slamming against the cliff ... and 'was an honor to ride three days on that road.
's time to do some budget ... and give a little 'votes:)
Starting from the beginning:
- Rating 5 to Visitoz: at first appears to want to scare you but once you understand the bad habit and' easy to take care of themselves.
- Grade 9 Australia: all you can 'read around the outback charm 's true.
- Grade 6 Australians: most people are 'stupid and closed I've ever met. Life in the City 'is not very different from any multi-ethnic metropolis but the Australian outback are you' kind but totally closed mind.
- Grade 6 to his travel companions, but unfortunately I only had the Germans as fellow travelers. They were good company but quite stingy of freeloaders. For every occasion and their 'good to "borrow" something from the hostel. Respect for others = 0.
- Grade 9 to my trusty cell phone: it has withstood 50 degrees outback, and 'exposed to rain and wind, has traveled with me for over 10000km and has helped me to not lose. :)
- Grade 10 my slippers: the Nike flip-flops bought two years ago. They now all that has been my cell phone. The only difference? were all the time under my feet. :)
'I have seen things that most people can not even imagine. Kangaroos killed on outback roads. Aboriginal drunks in the streets of Brisbane, Mount Isa and Melbourne. Bull ants can kill a baby. Clusters of waste burned in the open or buried in the outback ... It 's time to go home!'
