Freebie Frenzy

We have found the Australian people to be a very generous lot indeed. Here is a list of things we have managed to accumulate on our Aussie tour, and we did not have to pay a cent for any of them!

Boogie boards from Britz (now passed on to other happy holidaymakers).




And the Britz lizards of course.




Kangaroo key rings/bottle openers from Lake Durass campsite, notice that the Australian map is on the inside too, very cool.




A free cricket bat from Bunnings Warehouse in Sydney, signed by cricket legend Glenn McGraigh (don't worry, we hadn't heard of him either)!




A picturesque Rotary calendar from the lovely ladies at the National Park in my favourite place, Maleny.




Naomi and Benny (set amongst a soft mountain of koalas) with a rubber band ball, made by a very hard working staff member in the Blue Mountains - he probably had to hide the evidence from his boss that that was what he had been doing the whole morning!




A clog! Yes, just the one. We went to watch a clog making demonstration in Coffs Harbour and the man always gives the clog to the people who have travelled the furthest (felt a bit bad really, as there was only one other lady there)!




And finally a loaf of yesterday's Bushman's white loaf, with two slices already removed, given to us by a kindly shopkeeper near MacKay.




What a score!

No wonder our bags are full with all that loot!

Love
