Wyllie arranged this 5-week tour in July and August 2004. I had the pleasure of being hosted by Di Andrews (1), the Jen family, Rosalie Mackay, Carl Sullivan, Peter Jeffs, Peter Heath, Annie Bradbury and Jan Wyllie. Besides the dancing there were lots of good times sightseeing as shown below. Unfortunately, many of my indoor photos turned out too dark to post here. The sequence of the photos below is chronological: Sunshine Coast, Gold Coast, Central Coast, Sydney, Melbourne, Adelaide, Hervey Bay |

VICTORIA Peter Jeffs, my host on the Mornington Peninsula for my workshop at Rosebud. This is south of Melbourne. Peter is going to be retiring in the next couple months. He has been active in the Victoria Bootscooters Association from its start. |
KANGAROOS cover this hillside on the Mornington Peninsula south of
Melbourne. This was the biggest mob I saw in my 4 trips to Oz. 60 to 80 kangaroos are seen bounding to right in this photo. |

SOUTH AUSTRALIA Peter Heath and Liz were my hosts in Adelaide. We had two well-attended workshops, divided by level. It was a great way to please dancers at each level. Amazing to think about.. I taught 10 dances during the Beginner workshop! |

QUEENSLAND Hervey Bay is a pristine section of the east coast. There be WHALES here. Two whales swam right up to our boat to get their close-ups taken! We also saw sea turtles, dolphins and one sea cow. |
