China Hello everybody! We hope that you are all well and are enjoying the summer back home. As expected this blog is very overdue…. Following our last entry we flew to Beijing overnight and I have to say, China is very different to Australia!! The first thing that made us laugh were the six lanes of traffic on the four lane road!! With no guide book or map we had a bad lunch and got lost - we spent two hours walking the five minutes to our hotel! We did...

We've spent a busy week in Sydney visiting the aquarium, Taronga zoo, Bondi beach, the Blue Mountains, Palm beach (where they film Home and Away), and we've seen Avatar at the Imax (biggest screen in the world apparently).

Hey everybody, sorry it's been so long since we updated the blog but we're having too much fun to spend all our time writing about it! Since I last wrote the blog we've been pretty busy in NZ! On our way to do the Tongariro Alpine Crossing (bloody hard work but some great views) we stopped off in Taupo (again!) and Lois had the bright idea of skydiving!! It was awesome! Even though Lois burst into tears at least three times while we were waiting to go up in ...
