This morning we started our journey towards Cairns aboard the "Oz Experience" bus. Sid said he had bought us bus tickets that were good for travel anytime we wanted between Sydney and Cairns, so I thought it would be just a normal bus - Nope! The Oz Experience is a 9 day bus trip that doesn't take the major highways. The bus is full of travelers from around the world that are also traveling from Sydney to Cairns.

Our first stop was out a ways into the "bush" at a winery where we did some wine tasting, a lot of wine tasting.

On the road we saw what we thought was a nuclear plant, but were informed that it was a coal power plant, there are no nuclear plants in Australia.

We finally arrived in Nundle, a sheep shearing farm , "The DAG Sheep Station" - ohhhhh boy -

First we started with a demo of a sheep shearing.......

Then we had a big dinner(roast) that was cooked in a big kettle.

The scenery from the farm was pretty impressive, especially the clouds near sunset.

Unfortunately I didn't get many pictures of the crazies, except one of Sylvia and Kris, friends we were hanging out with watching the indoor wildlife. I went to bed around 12:30am to get some sleep for the early departure tomorrow, but didn't get much because the locals were up partying all night and the bunk were right next to the bar - Oh well, I'm not here to sleep any ways!
