I've started to put together a few short snippets of film onto my own MySpace page.
Here is my favourite at the moment, Margaret River 2006

I'll aim to add one a week, so I'll have to see how much I can edit in between work and play.
Once in a lifetime journey beginning and ending in Darwin..... but actually still hasn not ended. In between has been Brisbane, Sydney, Hawaii, San Francisco, Los Angeles, San Diego, Baja California, Mexico, Nicaragua, Costa Rica, Panama, Miami, New York, Dublin, Cardiff, Italy, Amsterdam, Spain, Portugal, France, and the UK. Thousands of adventures to come......

Songs on the Road
As welll as writing about the trip I knocked out two songs towards the end of my trip.
Strange thing was I wanted to write a song throughout the whole trip, but even with 1/2 the Australian coast line as a muse I couldn't pen anything down, nor could I get the fingers moving on the guitar.
Of course, once things settled down and I was relaxing ideas began to start flowing, but I still didn't have anything I really wanted to write about.
Step in girls. That's right, it was the girls that finally gave me my muse and I ended up writing two songs in two nights.
It's funny how the whole east coast of Australia can't stir up enough emotion for a song, but a simple sms and someone leaving the holiday house provides more then enough fuel for the fire.
Anyway, I came across this site which gives some basics to guitar playing and the theory around music, I'll have to revisit it to polish these off, but anyone learning should have a look through the site.

Dark Matter Shows it's face
I did a fair bit of reading while I was on my trip, and mostly it consisted of flicking through New Scientist magazines.
Unfortunately that led me to having a conversation with a self apparent genius on the flight home (he informed me that a better way to distribute meals on the plane was through chaos theory rather then the rigid seat by seat row by row system).
But all other times it gave me a chance to stretch my mind and soak up the sun down at the beach in between surfs.

My New Baby - 7S superfish
I'm back with much to tell, but first let me introduce you to the newest member of my travelling family.
:: global surf industries - 7S superfish ::
The best thing is that we got off to a fantastic start in Port Macquarie and that continued onto Wilson's Prom and Darby's Beach.
More to come.
