This is an extract from Lonely Planet, Leif Pettersen, June 22/2011:
“I have two permanent, oddly positioned bald spots on my head. Though my mother claims they’re from a scalp thing I had as a kid, I have it on good authority from my oracle that they’re probably where the Martians attached the electrodes.

Australia is home to some of the most legendary surfing spots in the world, and some of the hottest surfers too. Whether East, South or West, Oz offers a wide range of different coastline environments with over 23,000 km of beaches. Driven by freedom and tranquility, millions of professionals as well as beginners travel to West Australia, Queensland, New South Wales and Victoria every year to catch the waves and experience the spirit of surfing.
Chris Stevens who describes himself as a surfer by nature, a photographer by trade and a traveller by accident, provided TNT recently with a pretty useful guide to surfing down under.
A word of warning from our Cairns office this week about the delicate line between balancing your travel budget verses staying safe during your Aussie travels.
We have a huge amount travellers arriving into all of our branches after long haul flights from Asia, Europe and America all geared up and ready to take on their great Aussie adventure. For some they have come straight from the airport after a 12-24 hour flight and just want to hit the road ASAP.
We’ll if this is you, just take a look at what happened in our Cairns branch last evening when two Danish guys collected their camper after coming in straight from the airport.
