Amazing different is Cairns and surroundings vs Sydney, to bad we didnt really had the time to explore as we had a very busy schedule. Its a very tropical surrounding and also nice and warm :)
The biggest boxing fight was on in australian history Mundine vs Green! It was packed in every bar who put the fight on! I found a nice spot on the blackjack table (yea.. grr they had no poker tables) facing the big screen in the Casino :)
I think total we drove around 1300 between cities and little villages, and we stopped in several cute little towns.

Hotelview over Cairns bay

Between the little towns land inwards, long roads nothing :) but very impressive..

On our last day we drove from Mackay to Rockhampton, where we dropped the car and hopped into a little 50 person propellor plane to go to Brisbane to catch a bigger flight back to Sydney

Funny waterway.. just makes you think why not straight across on the thin part.

The landing gear did his part... hovering towards runway in Brisbane

Late saturday evening back, a couple of hours sleep and I had to play golf with the social club at 6.15 in the morning.. pff.. I did play pretty good actually!

Was good to see Cairns and surroundings, and next time we gonna hit the great barrier reef and some islands when we are out there, as thats just on the coastline of Cairns.

Tomorrow morning Ally fly's to Cairns (Queensland) for a work trip, and guess what.. !? im gonna join ! :)
After we landed in Cairns we make our way via Townsville to Rockhampton by rental car, were we fly out back to Sydney.
We are probably back this Saturday.. Ive got my (travel)golfset ready!

We stay in these hotels:
- Cairns
mercure-harbourside.com.au

- Townsville
plazahotels.com.au/townsville.htm

- Mackay
Clarion Hotel Mackay Marina-Mackay Queensland

Probably will find some internet up there, so hopefully can post some impressions.. main thing is that i'm gonna see some more of this country, and I'm looking forward to the car-trip as we are going to cross some interesting places.

Hugs and kisses from Australia ! Cheers buddy!

To update my portfolio, this is a logo I created for DJIN ICT a couple of years ago... DJIN is the gost from the bottle!

Wonder what she said to the horse...

Well here it is, my '99 audi A4 1.8 !! Gosh im very very happy with it, runs like a charm and look fab for his age! Got new sprayed bumperbars, and a year warranty on it. Now looking for some nice rims, as these default alloys are better then the normal ones but still not my taste..

Nice rear with big oval muffler tip, not like the turbo versions with two seperate pipes..

Sleek leather trim, lets u slide into the car..., also the car features powersteering, electric windows back and front, central locking, climate control. And the boot fits easily 2 clubsets and trollies.. :)

The car also holds a 10 CD stacker in the back, which when my w800i finally gets replaced wont be that necessary but so far its conveniently loaded with some kewl sounding tunes, and yes Berend also Dave Seaman's Global Underground release #16 - Cape Town CD2 :) Hooyah!

ps no logos on this car.. :)

Yes... I play poker ! and I play Texas Hold'm for a little while now.. and wow.. if I have a little break or I want one, this is the way to do so.. almost half the world is playing this game now, and its so fast.. and its so kewl ...YEAH!
It doesnt have to cost u a dime... really, click on my banner above, and become my affiliate with this, ive got tons of fun money to share with u and from all the poker rooms out there, I must say PokerChamps.com is the best. They have got the best tours at the moment, and they also have almost every hour a freeroll, that makes u play without paying, but if u come close to winning you can win real US $ !!
Ive almost racked up around 55 US $ in just one night of playing... so there are stacks of other tournaments I can join now... and my most fun ones are the Sit 'n Go's, u pay for example one time 2.75 $ and 9 ppl join.. u can rake up around 18 bucks to be #1 or if u land behing 3rd u rake up enough to try agian!

The free rolls are the best way to learn and also the funmoney games ofcourse... pls take this tip from me.. with the free rolls, if u are just starting only play if u have a top 10 hand.. like A-A or A-K or A what ever.,.. till A-Jack..
K-Queen or K-Jack will also work a little bit but be carefull... If u got double KK for instance hit a little bit bigger, to make the contesters amount smaller!
The tours are No Limit games.. which are the most fun game.... but to learn the game, just go for the Pot Limit games so you can learn what hands win in what situations.. just a little example, a straight doesnt often win in a 10 persons game... as most of those games will have a flush..

Just get your poker hands a bit organised here.. POKER LESSONS and learn just to fold often, and bid high when your playing the highest card.. boom your an instant winner like me ! :)

If u play funmoney on pokerchamps, you can recharge 3 x 1000 $ in an hour, which is far more than any other poker site!

Pls enjoy the game and be my affiliate, so we can play together, and I can supply u with some big fun $ !!!

Ive got a nice document if you are interested, which helped me going into the top of most freerolls! Its a blue print how to handle tournaments and it works!!!
Just let me know!

After a week of releasing patch T, LFS comes out with the release of patch U that will fix the problems that accured with the former patch.

Ive been driving the F1 Sauber that came with the former patch, and boy o boy thats so kewl.. LFS gets sponsoring by Intel nowadays so they prolly gave the rights to rebuilt the car for LFS, and I'm very very glad they did.
The old V8 F1 (FO8) model was very tricky to drive.. yes it was fast but no traction control and difficult to handle. If I was driving one of the openwheelers, then I would rather drive the Formula Ford/3000 version thats in there (FOX).. less speed but better to drive.

The F1 Sauber is now the fastest car in the pack, but also I must say the most interesting to drive.. and the best looking one! Luckily I'm doing good with the car also on the tracks that I know, and I'm sometimes only half a second slower then the World Record with this car, do bare in mind the finest setups arent developed yet as the car is fairly new.
Also heaps of skins become available, and its almost possible to choose the skin from every team on the 2006 F1 grid.
I was devoloping a skin for me for the FO8 and FOX, but dont think I will drive them that much any more, so I climbed into photoshop again and made myself a nice skin for my new BF1 ! (Sauber F1)

The front with a painted like texture molded into flames to the back! And the back wing has the DUIJNUNDER on it. The front wing has BOO twice on it, one for front view and one to read when u see me in your rearview mirror.. :)



The back has my patented SEE <> YA ! on the wing ..lol



The cockpit has the little DUIJNUNDER.com text on the sides:



Im going to do some striping in it also, and the sides are pretty empty for some logo's.. so if u want a logo on this car please tell me :)

Got a call today from phonebiz, as they are suppost to order me a new w800i so i can use my fm transmitter. The guy from phonebiz asked me what kind of provider I'm using... I said what !@?? Yea so we can order the right phone! I said "Mate (trying to sound aussie here), u already knew I have an provider free phone, as I told you in the beginning.. and after 2 weeks of doing nothing you call me up to say u still have to order the phone! Grrr... This is PhoneBiz Brookvale NSW may I add!

Hopefully if all goes right, I'm picking up my new car tomorrow! I've bought an Audi A4.. Yeah after years in Holland driving my good old Audi 80, I just had to stay in the same family... lol ! This one is also Silver Metallic :)
The car has the default Audi factory Alloys, and im already browsing to get some new rims.. have to pimp my ride a bit hey!

** UPDATE **
