Got up had me free brekie, im doing rather well, i have got up for breakfast everyday so far. nice.
went and booked a camper van, little more expsensive then what we had hoped for as all the lower vans have now gone so we have to get a deluxe model. meaning it has A/C and power steering. oh well it was only an extra 20 a day.
all in all it comes to 270 pounds for 2 of us for a week and we would spend more then that together staying in hostels and getting a tour down the great ocean road. this was it lasts a week and we can do it in our own way. can't wait should be good fun. paul has some cards so that should keep us enterained for some time anyway.
Decided as it wasn't a bad day to get down to the beach front. not been there yet and we have another day to waste. we did get the camper van by the way it is for tomorrow saturday for a week. so will write on here when i can. or when i come across a internet cafe.
Got down to the beach front called Glenelg. was expecting something better. well i was expecting something like we have in england, were the beach is full of shops and peirs with things on them to do and see. and there was nothing. well there was piers but they had nothing on them. just a boardwalk then i suppose you would call it.
the actually beach was ok, sandy and big. there was no shops, appart from one street leading off of the beach. the only things looking over the beach and out to see where appartments. nice.
no one wants to walk down appartments all day. nevermind, went and sat on a bench read my book for a while. didn't lay on the beach or go swimming to bloody cold. yes even for me. wind was the problem really, if there was no wind it would of been warmer and i would of gone swimming.
meet up with lizzy to swap some pic's. thanks liz. had a drink with her and kane, then went back to the city with paul.
got to this internet cafe i am in now to write up the days i hadn't done yet.
so nothing tonight, as i said off to get the camper tomorrow and then travel over to melbourne. so hopefully by the time i update this again i will have more tales to tell and better pics to show.
so until next episode of ian's travels, stay tuned and keep smiling. i know he is !!!!

Oh Ian are we getting bored with all the beautiful scenery and culture that you're being forced to look at every day, just remember none of us are cos we haven't seen it.
Hope the roadtrip goes well and make sure you get pics of the campervan cos they look really cool.
With your long hair and your guitar you go well together (hippy)
Keep having the time of your life.
Luv Mum & Dad
