Movin on up... da coast

Hey! Ryan and Mega here. Sunday. We have fixed the comments section, so anyone can comment now.
Campervan is in full effect. We named the campervan 'thunderdome' on the first day. Sometimes Ryan pulls out on the wrong side of the road and Meghan yells at him. A couple of days ago, Ryan looked the wrong way while crossing the street on foot and almost died, but Meghan saved him by yelling at him. We also got a flat tyre! Ryan thinks of the road warrior a lot during drives.We are now back on the beach and approaching the tropics. For the two days before that we went up to the mountains and climbed cathedral rock. We also had some roo neighbors and saw tons of wierd birds that laugh at you, or say "ohhh noooo!". We got creeped out by lizards and aussie possums. They are better looking than FL possums.As it turns out, crocodile dundee was right and roos hop through the forest, even though Meghan thought they would bump their heads on limbs.Before that we were at the beach for a couple of days, we had a lot of fun in the sun.We are excited about the tropics and particularly the great barrier reef. Ryan is for snorkel. Roight! Surf is pretty flat right now. Please let us know if there are any cyclones coming, because we don't get weather reports much.Roight! We are missing all y'all back home and up north. Hopefully we will have more frequent updates now that we are close to Brisbane's urban tentacles. Gday!

p.s. happy January birthdays to Max, Ace, Greg, and Mr. Dale!!

Wow Runyun...that water must have been really cold! I saw on the local news here in big O that there is a giant typhoon about to swallow Australia and all assiciated kangaroos. It won't be pretty. But if you take some pictures of the coolie cup, you may be spared God's wrath. Out.
