mmm oddly enough the leaves on a coffee plant don't taste like coffee!!
  Moving on from Coffee Bay we headed back towards 'civilization' and found ourselves on the South Coast. When I say civilization I simply mean that there are supermarkets, shops, petrol stations, that kind of stuff! Everyone really enjoyed Coffee Bay and it was quite sad saying goodbye Read More »
