I’m going every where, man!
In 1959 Australian Geoff Mack wrote the lyrics to "I've been everywhere", a song listing 94 Australian place names linked only by their ability to rhyme with each other.
This blog is a record of the visit to each of the 94 locations, and I DID IT! All 94 places in 18 months, over 30,000km!
The journey is also being used as an opportunity to raise funds for the Fred Hollows Foundation. Please kindly support us, every cent counts. Thank you.
Fund raised up date [22nd September 2011] -$3004.25
