Australian Journey Begins

G'day Mates. So, where am I going? Haven't a clue. Most likely wherever the Greyhound bus will take me. I'm thinking about heading north to Alice Springs and Ayers Rock and returning via the Gold Coast or Melbourne. I want to see the authentic Australia with Kangaroos, Kuala bears and locals masquerading as crocodile Dundees. If I have to pay $6 for a beer in the Outback to see that, then that's OK.
