Surf Camp
Melbourne- the games, the gigs, the bouillabaisse....
wOAH weeeell it's been a while. Went back to Melbourne for the games and to recover from injuries. Again the Unkles family came to the rescue- helped me heal. Been living with Alice in St Kilda. Lovely.... to cheer meself up, i went to see De la soul, supported by true live. So much was going on for the games the triathlon and marathon went right past our house! i went to a free jimmy cliff concert too, fun fun fun. 
Byron
In Byron Bay, which is beautiful and has some sweet surf spots... sans wetsuit or a poile if u so desire !!! OH YEAH! 1ST time ever WOW !! its luxury baby. but my surf board is not luxury, it has a broken nose but until i can afford a new one I guess it'll have to do . It floats anyway!!
1st week in Byron surfboards weren't the only thing floating.... it rained so much the streets were flooded. I was sleeping in a shed next to a swamp which, of course, flooded!
My Room in Byron
Lennox Head
One of my favorite places was the Tea Tree Lake at Lennox Head. It is surrounded by tea trees, which infuse into the water staining it deep red. In the shallow water your skin looks orange, in deeper water it's red, as you swim it becomes such a deep red it's almost black and you can't see your feet. After swimming in it your skin feels cleaner than after a shower. Way better than any spa treatment!!
And OOPS i had an accident and my collar bone broke... damn!
Melbourne 
Steve, Woodsy, me, Pete and Will - In the Park on Christmas Day
Xmas with the Unkles family. We had a picnic in the park and played frisbee golf etc. Deb took me to see a fairy tree with amazing carvings in it. They are a totally legendary family and looked after me so well. it's good to 
have an aussie family : )
Oh MY GUINESS!!! it's Symonds batting (Dad r u jealous??)
Had a lush day at the test match- **SMASHING!!
Went down the great Ocean road to stay in Lorne with Stevo and crew. We saw koalas, roos, wallabies, cockatoos and parrots which was so exciting for me. The wabes were pretty decent too. We did the Mountain to Surf run which was sweaty and fun!! DIdn't participate in the Pier to Pub swim as was too late.. have never seen so many people in the water at one time, it looked pretty scary ... i think if i'd swum i would have got run over by all those people!!!
Stevo and his buddies were doing a good job at keeping everyone in the town's spirits high! Topless twirlies, semi-nude masses doing sit-ups and push-ups on the round-a-bout at 3am after ripping it up on the dance floor! Keep up the good work boys!!!
