Well here it is our blog for our 2014 adventure - the adventure down under in Australia. We, Sean, Krystin, Matthew and Kade Rennie, are heading to Australia for a year. The adventure starts before we actually get to where we will live. We are heading to New Zealand on Christmas day for a little family vacation then off to the east coast of Australia before settling in Falcon in Western Australia. We will be about an hour south of Perth on the Indian Ocean. So stay tuned as we plan to post often to keep our family and friends up to date on our adventure.

Surfer Paradise

Raglan surfers beach

Travelled to see friends from New Zealand that we met in Niagara Falls this summer while they were on holiday in Canada.  They live in a small town on the coast called Raglan.  It is a great town and we could have stayed there for a week.  It is a surfing town and we saw lots of VW's so the boys, all 3 boys, were in heaven.  Graham and Barb were great hosts - fed us tea and treats and Graham took us for the local tour of the surrounding area in his Jeep.  We saw all of the cool surf spots and hiked to the Bridal Vail Falls (same name as the falls on Manitoulin Island but much bigger).  Lots of driving through the country side today - the roads are narrow, tight and hilly - Sean thought he was a race car driver.
