Hey Lin & Ger,

Sorry I haven't been in touch recently, your blog is great, I'm green with envy at all the wonderful places you have seen & are about to see in the rest of your travels.

All is grand, I'm settling back into life in Melbourne, currently job hunting & have few things in the pipeline but I have to wait & see how things go!

Went to an AFL game last night in Etihad Stadium with Joan, Ross, Paul (a friend from homes bro), his GF Claire & a fellow Galwegian who is in my room, Caoimhe. It was an exciting game & over 50,000 people too made for a great atmosphere, despite my team losing! Afterwards all the bars near the stadium were jammers so we went into one off King St then Joan & Ross headed back to their local & Caoimhe, Paul, Claire & I headed to Elephant & Wheelbarrow in St.Kilda, it was a lot quieter than your Mon Neighbours Trivia night but it was good fun, there was a good band playing! Wrecked today & not up to much probably jus chill in front of tv tonight.

Off to catch up with my Aussie friends I met in Vietnam tomorrow, they are cooking a full on Sunday roast so yummy, I won't say no to that!

The blogs are great, I'll check out the photos another day as battery about to die on laptop.

Enjoy the rest of trip in India & wow, ye won't feel it until ye are back in the Emerald Isle.

Love Cath x

P.S Thanks for the WIFI tip for McDonalds, best travelling tip I've got!
