Thanks guys.

I've loved watching your pairs of jeans evolve nizzel, I've poped in a couple times for a look at pictures but that is about it.

DWC jeans on a hike.

this is probably my last trip in the dwc jeans for this contest. sadly, i don't think i have pictured or taken a photo in them during the duration. flew to melbourne for 5 days, then drove to adelaide and then sydney for about a day each. i think i covered about 3500kms in total, with the adelaide - sydney leg being the longest at 1400kms in 14 hours or so..

Melbourne's all about the cafes, the coffee, good food, rooftop bars, secret bars and everything "cool" within australia. there's really good cafes with brilliant menus and good coffee/roasters. i haven't been to melbourne in almost 8 years now, checked out the NGV, where the Viktor and Rolf exhibition was on and did most stuff around the city areas.

Adelaide. 700kms, 7 hours drive from melbourne. not too bad for a first ever visit. not too much to do on a first trip. relaxed mostly around the main city shopping strip. really loved the place. somewhat similar to perth but with more stuff. there's also cool little bars and of course RHD.

[louisbosco]

sydney. the longest drive i've personally done. 1400kms or so. i only got into sydney about 2130 having left adelaide at 7am. the drive was amazing though. with great twisty bits and an entirely straight and empty piece of tarmac for about 170kms. Sydney's not too shabby, very hectic and busy with high rise buildings everywhere. sadly, over the past few times i've ever been in sydney, it's been such a coincidence that i'm never there longer than 2 days. at least this time i've managed to drive over the sydney harbour bridge. on the way to get back to perth from melbourne, stopped by canberra to visit the parliament house.

Hi, here's the link to the first knee-rip I had repaired in October 2015:
