Hi everyone,
Well we have just got back from Melbourne (hence the lack of entries for the past week). It was Melbourne cup weekend which is a massive horse racing event and we went to the races- it was really good although I did lose 20 dollars (about 8 pound) and Freya the cheeky girl won about 100 dollars (40 quid). It is crazy they have a bank holiday on the Tuesday so that people can watch the races and people are pretty big on gambling here!
We were really lucky with the weather as it was a nice sunny day on Saturday so we sat out the grass drinking wine as watched the races, it was apparently raining most of the weekend in Sydney!
The weather is getting better here, it hasn't been great so far. It is about 25 degrees today and is meant to be 28 or 29 over the weekend so I think that we will be taking a trip to the beach!
Me and Freya also went to the Neighbours night which can only be decided as an 18-30s holiday full of English and Irish people doing silly things to win stuff. For those of you who watch Neighbours we met Stingray, Paul Robinson and Elle Robinson.
I never noticed it before and people can tell me if they agree but I think that Stingray looks a bit like Ollie (my cousin)
I will put the pictures up when it decides to work as it isn't at the moment!
We are now back in Sydney but not for long as me and Freya are off to Alice Springs on Wednesday for a few days which includes treking and camping near Ayers rock which should be fantastic especially as it is currently 39 degrees there compared with 25 in Sydney on a good day at the moment! (im not complaining it has to be better than England)
Me and Freya and a couple of Irish people that we live with are going to see U2 in Sydney on Monday night which should be awesome (can't wait!)
Then we are off to Darwin and then Cairns and will be travelling down the east coast to make it back to Sydney for xmas and new year celebrations- we will have a full house so should be great!
Right i'm going to have to go as we need to sort out stuff for next week!
Speak soon
