Hello All! In Las Vegas at the mo recovering from a heavy weekend of booze and gambling (only 1 cent slots tho!). Since arriving in the U.S. we have spent a few days in LA where we had a day in Universal Studios checking out some behind the scenes action with the stars, taking some 3 and 4D adventutes with Shrek and the Terminator as well as nearly being ejected from the park for assaulting a cartoon character.

We then drove to 90 Mile Beach for a surf and our first experience of sandboarding. Again good days all round. The last leg...

So I left u at Airlie Beach last, where we'd just returned from the Whitsundays. Next stop- Magnetic Island. The island that Australia claims has more days of sunshine per year than anywhere else in Oz. Not for us! We arrived to fairly dull weather, no rain but no sun either. The following day was not much bet...
