DAY THREE: Rock pool
After such a long walk yesterday we decided it would be better for us to experience public transport, so we caught the train to Wollongong. We were both a little deflated to find it was only a ten minute journey but we didn't mind since we had seen so much. The plan for the day was to organise all our paperwork, so the bank account, tax form and Medicare card were all applied for within a few hours so we had the whole day to ourselves. Along the walk we went past the continental pool, next to that was the original rock pool my dad was telling me about. Vicki was captivated by this natural rock, there are no tiles on the sides or bottom, just the sandy sea bed. We both enjoyed this, Vicki being a geography student from years ago appreciated the rock formation and how they've made it, where as I was captivated by the little fish. Both armed with our waterproof cameras we took dozens of photo's of little puffer fish and various other animals which were swimming at our feet not phased by our presence.
Years before this whole adventure began, Vicki and myself have touched upon some minor travelling. I was eighteen when I bought a van and travelled western Europe alone and I have travelled the cities of Europe with the inter rail system. Vicki on the other hand has travelled America and parts of Australia staying in back packers hostels. Join us as we embark on an adventure of a lifetime across the beautiful coasts, bustling cities and arid deserts of Australia.

A little more impressive than our local swimming pool.
