i have always wanted to do the drive along the great ocean road but havent yet gotten to it. if you go to sydney in the future and have a spare day check out this website http://www.daytoursydney.com.au/, it is a tour company that does ecofriendlyday tours to the royal national park which is just south of sydney. i went on it a few weeks ago and had the best day. it is beautiful wih the bush and the beach. its got spectacular views and you learn so much about australian wildlife, culture, history and more. australia is a beautiful country, hope you enjoyed every bit of it!!

Stetson – I didn’t realise the population of the Phillipines was so high. You make a good call about the land though. Australia has a population of 22 million, yet you can fit 31 UKs (UK has population of roughly 70 million) into the land mass.

Candice – yes, I’m going to go back and do it, missed out here.

It strikes me that Australia enjoys one of the only fully habitable landscapes in the world that still can be called virgin.

For example, when I travel in the Philippines, the country is indeed beautiful.

However, with 90 million people on the islands, it is almost impossible to go anywhere where there aren’t lots of folks already there.

Even in what would be the remotest parts of any of the islands you are likely all of a sudden to be faced with a shanty town or at least a group of folks camped by the side of the road or in the field or in the forest patch.

When you describe a road with nothing there at all, you have a treasure that one doesn’t really appreciate until it is gone for good.
