Hiya! We are much further north along the east coast since the last time I wrote. We had to leave Surfer's paradise really early yesterday morning to cath a bus, then train back to Brisbane where we caught a 2 hour flight up to Airlie beach. The weather here is tropical compared to everywhere we have been in OZ so far. It is about 35 degrees and so humid, my hair is not happy!! We are staying in a tiny little room in the mmiddle of a rainforest so last night the...

G'day! How was everybodies weekend? Just one more week and then your off for christmas so I guess nobody is doing any work already! I had my first surf lesson today and it was so much fun but 100 times harder than I imagined it would be!

We had 3 stages of the lesson so first of all we just had to...

It is really expensive to travel here and we need to get further north if we want to scuba the great barrier reef so we are probably going to have to spend 100pound on a flight and then a couple of hundred for a few hours if ...

I'm glad you enjoyed the cakes my little pension buddies! I'm saving the next order until I receive lots of messages! Well done Mr T for following my orders though, I'm very impressed! Today I went to Australia zoo and had the best time, it is such a good zoo! It was run by Steve Irwin, the famous crocodile hunter, who died this year but you wouldn;t know it because there are pictures of him everywhere and they all constantly talk about him. They aim to let you...
