Salvation Mountain, Bombay Beach, Slab City, Mecca and a side trip to TJ over my week off over Xmas.
So, what's in Orangeville besides Pot shops?
No, not yet. Coming from Melbourne I did the Oodnadatta Track and then to Coober Pedy and camped underground in an old opal mine. After that I headed south towards the coast along the Great Australian Bight. I'll leave Uluru for my second leg of the trip to Darwin. Summer in Australia is not enjoyable at all to travel in. Crazy 40C+ heat in the interior, rains that close a lot of roads near the coast, and flies everywhere that fly into your ears and eyeballs and mouth.that sounds awesome! did you make it to uluru, or are you going to do that in winter when going back to melbourne? i wanted to go there when i visited australia a couple years ago but it was november and already too hot there.
everything you've been conditioned to think a certain way. There are millions of people who think and live differently
? I don't remember anything like that, food was finePhilippines, prepare for a diet of mostly processed foods. Everyone was nice though.
Chicago a few weeks ago, Indianapolis a few months before that, Wisconsin Dells a few weeks before that, Charlotte a few weeks before that, then sometime before all that I came out of a vagina.

We were there the week before Christmas, I wanted to swim with the pigs, but we missed out!Exuma, Bahamas a few weeks ago.
Swimming with the pigs!
I missed good bread the most, there was a lot of lechon but i never noticed the fried foods all that much, i was in Mindanao though, not sure if that matters.I was in a non-tourist area for couple weeks. The locals seem to like fried foods and had a meat heavy diet. I need veggies.
The night time "lunch" was an interesting experience, lotta fried foods though. It was by some call center buildings and since the people inside work USA hours, their break was in the middle of the night.
I really missed a freshly brewed cup of coffee while I was there.
My whole family (parents/bro/sis & their kids/spouses) and my family did a family trip to Oahu over the summer. Spent 10 days at the Aulani Resort. While I enjoyed my time there, I won't be back to Oahu or Aulani probably ever again unless the trip was free or something. Way too expensive and commercialized. We're planning another trip to Cabo, where at least we can get all inclusive.
