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!  waytogo

A quick 15 photo encapsulation of my trip  cheeky ...

First day in Sydney...


With Priscilla, enjoying a glass of Aussie SB at Bondi Beach's Iceberg


Mostro900, CharliesAngel, and The Don on a ride through Macquarie Pass in Sydney's Royal National Park


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! Sad


DMF OZ Monsters organized dinner at Napoli in Bocca Restaurant in Haberfield


Wine tasting in Hunter Valley - 2-1/2 hours outside of Sydney


Sunset at Hungerford Hills Winery in Hunter Valley


Sydmonster's sweet Monster comletely redone - it doesn't even have an odometer!


Seafood at the Sydney Fish Market! This wasn't our portion...  Tongue


The view from Priscilla's flat in Brisbane (Sydmonster labelled her the Oz Monster #1 Groupie Wink)


Aussie police = very friendly  cheeky  Police


Brisbane's Maiala's Rainforest Cafe = Alice's in Woodside.  Big thanks to Bribieduc for lending me his Monster!  waytogo


On the way from Mt Glorious - the roads were glorious indeed! Cheesy


Hugging a koala


I'd never met a wallaby before...aren't they adorable? And they are so soft! Smiley


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... Wink  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!  waytogo waytogo
