Photos: Woof Wednesday 7.0
It’s Woof Wednesday 7.0 time – being in Australia for 29 days we most certainly missed this sweet pup. All four paws and two shaggy ears!

When she was younger I could easily hold her by her back legs, with my arm underneath her kneecaps, yet not any…

Travel: Fraser Island Snapshot
Fraser Island snapshot – known as K’gari, it’s a world heritage site and has spectacular views.

The similarities were wild. If…

Travel: Kinka Beach Snapshot

Travel: Cape Hillsborough Snapshot

We stayed in the campground, in one of their terrace huts. Nothing glamorous, since it’s a campground, yet it had everything we needed for a few great days of hiking! Cape Hillsborough Snapshot With three trails leaving right from the campground, we had two days where we didn’t even drive our car! Nope, just suited up,…
