Great Australian made blogs on Travel, Queensland and Australia

More and more Australians seem to be taking to the internet and publishing their stories, articles or helpful tips via the infamous publishing platform they call blogging!

This is a good thing! The more people share, the more we all benefit. There are many days when I wish that I payed more attention in english class that would have today made me a better steward of the mighy pen, but I am also at the mercy of the curse of laziness!

To substitute for my laziness here are just some of the blogs I have come across lately which are covering topics such as travel and Australian life.

If you are really looking to get inside the head of an Australian you should probably check out Things That Australians Love. Apparently we like more than just beer? Not even I knew that.

After that you may wonder, what is it like to tour this big island continent? Well if your thinking of hooking up a caravan and going on tour, or even by some other means, then Ozdyssey is something to add to your RSS reader...

Not the reading type? Well there is few words at either of these blogs but there are some great photos, check out this blog which has photos of the Gold Coast. Also if your heading to the Gold Coast check out A Gold Coast Holiday and if youre hungry visit the Gold Coast Food Guide. While your heading that way, just up the road is Brisbane Australia and it's well worth a visit. And nearby is Redcliffe so check out Glenns Redcliffe Photography blog too.

Of course Australia is a huge place so there is much to see and learn! Also stop by at the Visit Australia Blog. Here you will find even more photos of Australia and it's beaches, and here is more info on travelling to Australia.

Still travelling along looking for more litrature on the blogernet? Try this for random musings on Australian travel or perhaps you'd like to discover how two British expats are morphing into aussies as all good brits should. Or perhaps you like to follow the travel journeys and thoughts on global travel from an Australian point of view, if so then check out Oz Traveller

Gold Coast Nitro SuperGP - Goodbye Indy

This year is 19th annual race event held on the Gold Coast. And it is the first year without the Indy cars with the A1GP cars taking their place alongside the V8 Supercars.

As usual it runs for four days from October 22-25th.

Nitro Energy drink is the naming rights sponsor, never heard of them??, me neither. But anyway, apparently it's Australia's energy drink going by their website http://www.nitroenergydrink.com.au/.



So, goodbye Nikon, goodbye indy and hello Nitro SuperGP!
