East Coast Roadtrip: Sydney to Cairns

Finally we are on our way up through the beautiful Australian east coast. We'll go from Sydney to Cairns. Lina and I have hired a campervan for few weeks and here we have few pics of our start. Quiet hard to find good wifi as we live most of the time on campgrounds.

We went to a Reptile Park to see snakes, crocodiles, spiders, koalas and kangaroos etc! Though i have the rest pictures on my other camera and this is from my phone 

We saw the real crocodile eat his food. Such an amazing and scary animal 

The kangaroos jumped around free in the park and we had a cuddle with them. Finally I met a kangaroo in real life! 

Chilling in the sun

Cute when sleeping 

Of course I need a selfie with this cutie

Happy girls who picked up the campervn in Sydney. 

Cool driveway through the mountains 

First stop is Coffs Harbour and this is on our way 

Took us about 6hrs to get there with few stops along the road 

COFFS HARBOUR (one night)
Here's our "gorgeous" van haha. The typical tourist van Jucy. 

Two couches during day and in night we put a board in the middle and make it as a bed. All the way back you see the kitchen. We have a sink, a gasole stove and a chilly bin (that needs ice to get cold which is bad when we do freecamping...). But the van is alright anyway :) 

We have out moonroof where we can see stars from the bed when we sleep! 


Stove in action! 

"The Big Banana: a thing you have to see". Haha pretty weird thing on the Have to Do-list 

Saw a really cool building on the way to Byron Bay 

Cairns Part 2

Part 2 is about our day trip up to Daintree river for the crocodile cruise!! SO incredible cool to see them in real life even tho Lina's camera died in the beginning and we didn't got any good pics haha...  

Excited for a day trip

Stopped at this beach

Morning tea time with mango!!

Be aware


Got free pies from the woman at the desk of cruise company

They had a cool cafe 
This plant glows in the dark!


Time to go!

Can you see swimming crocodile to the right coming against the one to the left? Few seconds later they had a fight about who owns the area
Was able to touch a crocodile foot 

Linus in a great view!

Best mates

Had some dinner by the waterfront in Cairns and saw the sunset


Also saw a fire show at the street










Cairns Part 1

Part 1 will be with what we did on our way to Cairns. We visited two cool rivers with the clearest water and swam with fishes and tiny wild turtles!

First stop: Paradise Waterhole 

Lina is considering to swim or not haha

Couldn't catch a pic of the turtles.... 

it's placed out in nowhere



Wouldn't say it's cold at all
Stopped by this cute little fruit shop where a lady had grown everything on her farm
From the left: got three lime and a egg for free, bought a huge Jack fruit (really weird consistence with a bubblegum taste), in the middle there is star apples and passion fruit (Lina is crazy in passion fruit), white cucumber in the front and behind that one it's golden squash. 
Jack fruit when opened, we didn't like it haha
Lunch by the sea

View by the road

Behind the fence (which is covered of 8 warning signs declaring NOT pass fence or you might die by falling off the slippery rocks) we saw the boulders rocks.

Rocks along the river who got shaped by the water
Beginning of the river which looks like a rainforest


Picture taken under water
Yay one pic of a turtle!!

Had some ice cream as afternoon tea
