Oh it sounds so tropical and as though we have travelled hundreds of miles to the middle of nowhere. In fact we drove past a big water park and several houses along the road it is on. Minnamurra rainforest is a national park just outside of Jamberoo. It's apparently teeming with a huge diversity of life, today they must have all gone on holiday because we didn't see a great deal except two pretty large lizards and a hand full of Lyrebirds. There were dozens of birds calling and making a huge hubbub of noise strangely coming from one particular spot. We strained ourselves to see these different birds then all of a sudden a car alarm was sounding. We both looked perplexed since we are in the middle of the rainforest. It was a Lyrebird mimicking sounds, one minute it was a laughing Kookaburra and next it was a car alarm.
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.
