Newcastle

Since those are my last holidays here there are a lot of places I planned to visit and a lot of points of my bucket list I want to accomplish. Yesterday I got up at 5:15 because my friends and me decided to go up to Newcastle which is in the North of Sydney and a four hour train ride away. We arrived at 10 to spend the whole day there. Newcastle has wonderful beaches and many parts reminded me a lot of England.

We arrived at Newcastle Beach and then did the coastal walk which had a beautiful view on the sea and at one point we saw some dolphins jumping with the waves. Later on it went over into the Memorial Walk which is a bridge with men sculptures that remember the soldiers of the First World War.

Later on we walked along the Darby Street which has some cute little cafes and shops. And afterwards we decided to go back up to visit Nobbys beach and to do the walk up to the lighthouse.

Cairns Trip – Day 1

Aboriginal Culture Park, Crocodile & Wildlife Park, Daintree Rainforest

On our first day we visited the Aboriginal Culture Park where an Aborigine named Joe told us about differents nuts and plants that are used in washing and cooking and explained us how to play the didgeridoo which is an Aboriginal instrument that only the males play. Later he showed us how to throw boomerangs and speers and we got some face painting.

Crocodile & Wildlife Park

Later on we visited the Crocodile and Wildlife Park where we went on a boat ride through a lagoon for crocodile feeding and took pictures with a koala named Daisy 🙂

With Daisy 🙂

Daintree Rainforest

Later that day we went on a two hour bus trip to the Daintree rainforest which is the oldest continuously growing rainforest on earth and spent one night there. Our lodge had a great location right next to the beach.

 

 

 

Bondi Beach

This weekend I‘ve finally been to Bondi Beach! Since summer isn‘t far away and Bondi is crowded in summer Luce and me decided to go there this Sunday. It is beautiful and I really want to go and surf there one day in summer 🙂
