Mr. Bean's holiday. Care to follow along??

[pdxfj]

Greetings!

Well here I am sitting at LAX, waiting for my flight.  Where am I going on holiday?  Well.. It's 14 hours from here to visit the land down under.  I can't believe I'm actually going to visit Kalvdy.

Last month I purchased a SPOT Tracker (www.findmespot.com).  One nifty thing about it is that I can have it update a Google Map with my location.  So that means you fine folk can follow along if you like.

Here's the link to the SPOT tracking web site and it'll bring up the map.  Nothing there at the moment as I don't have good access to the sky to get a location fix.

Plus I will post pictures when I can at the link below.

So stay tuned.. who knows what kind of crazy crap will go on.  Klavdy is bad enough when he's in the states.. what is he going to be like in his home country???

Gah.. if I have any more of these Gin and Tonics they will have to carry me to the gate..   

This same message will be posted on the other group.

Is this your first visit Downunda??? If so did Klavdy warn you about Drop Bears & Aussie Beer???

[Marsh White]

That GPS thing is going to be awesome Garthster!  I can't wait to see it work!  I think you are still on the plane now...but should be just about to land.  Give Klavo a big sloppy kiss for me!   

Have fun over there...sorry I couldn't make it.  At least you have gone to some great lengths to allow us to live vicariously through you!

This will be fun! Thanks Garth! Hmmmm Klavdy on his home turf...... makes me shutter..... be careful out there

[pdxfj]

Well I am here!  I can't believe I am actually in Australia..

Need to relax a little and I'll get some pictures up.

And yes.. I already tried to get in the wrong side of the car.  hahahahahaha

[Klavdy]

So, we finally met Mr Bean at Brisbane Airport,

Where is the skinny prick?



Aha! Found Him!
He looked like he enjoyed the cavity search, best anonymous phone call ever,


Got him into the Ute and introduced him to driving on the correct side of the road,


Mrs Klavdy gave our honoured Seppo guest a warm Aussie welcome,


Hayabusas were representin,




Must be pretty exciting bike, the Hayabusa coz while the Men fettled the FJ's in the garage,



the Suzuki riders were overcome with the dizzying excitement of being allowed to tag along and had to have a little lie down,



They need their beauty sleep, Hayabusa riders, because they  obviously have not had enough,

Klavdy, great write-up...keep them coming!  A few casual observations:
- I think Harvy's Beard (yes, it is so prominent that I think it should be capitalized) is obstructing food to his mouth.
- I think Dave should lose the moustache.
- What, no sidewalks in OZ?

[ddlewis]

  no kidding.. that's quite a beard.
Harvey looks like Oz's answer to Lee Carkencord.

Garth,

It was very smart of you to lojack yourself, it will make the search easier when your body gets dumped in the outback by the convict scum.
watch out for harvey, he looks wiry and shifty. guys with beards are hiding sumthin.

[ogmudbone]

HEY I have a beard and I aint hiding nuthin!!!...hahahahaha

Garth good deal making it there in one chunk...keep the rubber side down and don't forget to launch the seppo sneak attack on the great down unda!!!


OGmudbone

P.S. Klav hate to inform you but even the French know us seppos drive on the "right" side of the road...LOL

you know i was thinking the exact same thing....

all Harvy and his beard are missing is a  "If you dont limp you aint shit"   T-shirt   


KOokaloo!

[ogmudbone]

I have to admit my beard is nothing like that...but I'm not that old yet. Harvey looks to be about 40 and I'm only 35. hahahahaha

Maybe in another 5 years I can grow my beard out like that.

So we got Bean up on his hind legs for his first ride in Aus,

Hold me, I'm scared



Just Bean, the Suzuki Tragic and yours truly, off on a gentle canter through the Gold Coast Hinterland,Bean taking well to the new conditions,


Scenery was sought, sights seen,



C'Mon Bean, let's go behind these bushes,got something to show you







Dropbears? I don't see no Dropbears,,,









  Just a bit closer to the Croc pool fellers, it'll make a great shot,





And Bean introduced to some Australian culinary delights in the form of a Dog's Eye with Dead Horse at The Outpost Cafe,



    W.T.F is THAT?? Looks like it came outta cows ass.





    OI! Bean! Don't freakin barf on me mate!








We fed him on Kangaroo the night before,


He loved it,


He said he felt like  jumping off this waterfall after eating the 'Roo,





All in all a top day out, soon we are off to dinner at The Currumbin Vikings Surf club.








Take a pic fellers, of the view fellers,




Oh, duh, O.K,




Like this uh huh uh huh,






Uh yup,
