Title: My Awesome Adventure Down Under Post by: CharliesAngel on May 14, 2009, 05:51:46 PM Well...I can see a trend here...DTM posts pics of Costa Rica ... I post up pics of Australia ... hopefully Tigre will post up some pics from Italy too! [thumbsup]
A quick 15 photo encapsulation of my trip [cheeky] ... First day in Sydney... (http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3601/3531759507_7e1d41f89b.jpg) With Priscilla, enjoying a glass of Aussie SB at Bondi Beach's Iceberg (http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3361/3532577454_2211e616fe.jpg) Mostro900, CharliesAngel, and The Don on a ride through Macquarie Pass in Sydney's Royal National Park (http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2436/3532578512_d76fff1f39.jpg) A real meatpie!!! I learned that the government no longer requires that there be 25% meat in meat pies if you buy them at stores? So if you do buy them there, it's all gravy! :( (http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2457/3532579646_1c6a46c66a.jpg) DMF OZ Monsters organized dinner at Napoli in Bocca Restaurant in Haberfield (http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2442/3531763891_db3cceb898.jpg) Wine tasting in Hunter Valley - 2-1/2 hours outside of Sydney (http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2189/3532581686_6f5c1bc489.jpg) Sunset at Hungerford Hills Winery in Hunter Valley (http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2195/3531766167_3d997561a5.jpg) Sydmonster's sweet Monster comletely redone - it doesn't even have an odometer! (http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2146/3532583808_f19b19b8af.jpg) Seafood at the Sydney Fish Market! This wasn't our portion... :P (http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2004/3532584806_7395f6a471.jpg) The view from Priscilla's flat in Brisbane (Sydmonster labelled her the Oz Monster #1 Groupie ;)) (http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2221/3532585744_1d70c1e5e2.jpg) Aussie police = very friendly [cheeky] [leo] (http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2340/3531770045_80ff08873a.jpg) Brisbane's Maiala's Rainforest Cafe = Alice's in Woodside. Big thanks to Bribieduc for lending me his Monster! [thumbsup] (http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2150/3531771167_4d42bb8235.jpg) On the way from Mt Glorious - the roads were glorious indeed! :D (http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3576/3531772189_7ce588bdc8.jpg) Hugging a koala (http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2434/3532589958_14e561227e.jpg) I'd never met a wallaby before...aren't they adorable? And they are so soft! :) (http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2369/3532590946_bc6f694717.jpg) The Sydney DMF OZ Monster's were great fun! As you can tell from the photos. Bribieduc lent me his Monster in Brisbane and in exchange I got him some NAPA autoparts as well as a nice bottle of Napa Cab... ;) The trip was really extraordinary and memorable simply because of the DMF! Even Priscilla (Sydney's #1 Ducati Groupie) got to make some new friends! [thumbsup] [thumbsup] Title: Re: My Awesome Adventure Down Under Post by: desmoquattro on May 14, 2009, 06:00:40 PM Sydmonster's sweet Monster comletely redone - it doesn't even have an odometer!
