Hi Everyone
I know it’s been a couple of weeks since I have written you a Journal but I haven’t really been up to much!!!
I am staying with my cousin Sean and his wife Shellie at the moment have been here nearly two weeks and have done some wonderful things with them. First Sean took me around the city and we were going to go up a tower to have a look at the view but because of all the bush fires it was just too smokey, and we wouldn’t have been able to see much……I can’t believe how bad the smoke is out here, apparently it hasn’t been this bad for years and years. I keep saying to everyone I could never live out here because of the smoke and they say that even they can’t stand it and it has been pretty bad lately. Saying that even though it was smokey going into the city it was a lovely day and I got to see a bit more than when I went on my own. We stopped and had a beer in an English style pub which was very cool and definitely needed after walking around for three hours.
On another day me and Shellie went to Werribee Open Range Zoo, it was a fantastic day. But it was sad to see everything so dry, all the creeks were dry and the grass was brown!!! Never the less going from the Zoo to Werribee Mansion was wonderful and everything looked so full of colour….especially the rose garden!! Sean decided he didn’t want to come with us as he was playing golf with Jeff (his dad, my uncle) typical male!!!!
Then a couple of days after that we went to Melbourne Zoo…..now that was brilliant and you were able to get really close to the animals….now I can here you all saying why would she want to go to zoos what have they got to do with being in Australia. Well I have never been to a zoo before and if I have it was when I was to young to remember!! It was brilliant I loved every minute of…however Shellie did say, Sean had said to her “Jodi looks at everything!!!!” think he was getting a bit bored!!! Think he is fed p with living with two women as well he is just not used to it!!! Never mind he will survive!!
One evening I can’t remember which as all the days seem to merge into each other!! Shellie took me and the dog down to the beach……..WOW WOW WOW the sun set was just amazing I have never seen anything like it….and I bloody forgot my camera!! It was the most beautiful thing I have every seen the whole sky was just pink and it was just breath taking!! I hope to se a few more of those while I’m away!!
I also had some really good new from one of my friends back in England….she is coming out to join me on my tour…..Yeay!! (Kate her name is by the way) I have to say it did take a bit of getting used to, knowing that someone you know is going to be doing things with you…I am so used to just going off and doing my own thing I didn’t quite know how I would cope. But I have come to terms with it now and I am so excited. We have been planning trips and flights and it’s nice to know that I can experience it with someone else. So she is coming out a week before the tour starts and will be staying with my family for a few days…then we fly to Sydney for 4 days before our tour starts have booked a lovely hotel called ‘Novotel Rockford Darling Harbour’ so if you get a chance look it up online and you can see how wonderful it looks. I am really looking forward to seeing Sydney again, and its nice for Kate because I know Sydney like the back of my hand so I can show her where to go and stuff. She will be doing the bridge climb and the Blue Mountains Tour which will be nice for her…and even better for me because while she is off doing all the things I have done before I can just sit back and relax in the 4.5 Star hotel!!!! Can’t wait!!! This hotel is one of the hotels that I saw when I went to Sydney before and thought to myself I would love to stay in that hotel!!!
I am now trying to decide when I want to come home, at the moment I am thinking about coming home on the 5th May, which means leaving here on the 4th. How exciting I think it is bank holiday weekend so I will be able to catch up with everyone!!! I have to wait until I get back to my aunties anyway as my flight tickets are at hers and I can’t change my flight without having them in front of me….so knowing me I will probably change my mind again before I get back to hers!!!
