Not much to report today, we just relaxed and chilled out. On the news we saw that another shark has been seen in Perth!! They think it could be the same one that took that man!!

We've had rain and storms on and off all day today, we've watched a couple of films and did all of our washing - it didn't matter about the weather as there are dryers! After the shark at Bondi yesterday, on the news today they were saying a 5m great white was at one of the beaches in Perth and a man was out snorkling with his son and got attacked and taken by the shark! I don't think we'll be going in the sea in Oz again!

With some January sales already started and all others beginning today we got a bus to Bondi Junction and walked around the malls and shops. Nick has wanted a pair of Quicksilver board shorts so we went around each of the surf shops to see if they had the pairs he's been looking at in the sale. In one of the surf shops I found a beautiful, 100% leather purse. I got some money for Christmas so I treated myself to the purse and the rest will be put towards the trip...

**Happy Christmas** When we woke up this morning we were annoyed to see a completely grey sky!! It was meant to be sunny but instead it was overcast and looked like there was going to be a storm! We enjoyed cheerios for breakfast and opened the stocking my mum and dad had sent us. The chocolate coins and jelly beans were much appreciated! I also got a mascara, knickers, hair ties and nail files! We had music on in the apartment and after stockings, breakfast ...

The forecast was right again, it was rainy and stormy all day but they're still saying tomorrow is meant to be clear skies and sunshine so that's all that matters. Nick cooked us a proper maccaroni and cheese for dinner, it was delicious. We cuddled up on the sofa with mince pies and some chocolate whilst watching a film and then prison break! Getting into the Christmas spirit!
