Well, done a lot since our last postcard...you have to understand, there is absolutely no chance of finding the internet in the outback...it's hard enough to find people and a flushing toilet!! On day one we visited Rainbow Valley (pictured), The Olgas and watched sunset over Ayers Rock - spectacular. Went back to camp and got our swags out for the night - yes, we were sleeping under the stars with only the snakes and spiders for company! We were very fortu...

Had an early night as it's off to Ayers Rock tomorrow. Hope all is well back in sunny old England. Lots of love, Nadine and Pip xx

More importantly the beds proved to be very comfortable as we s...

We're back!!!!!! Just spent 3 days and 3 nights on a 90ft Maxi Yacht, called Anaconda 3, sailing around the Whitsundays and Great Barrier Reef.... The trip got off to a good start with a glass of Champagne....and got even better when we met our room mates - two very nice Swedish guys (Gustav and Martin thanks for being such great fun and I hope you enjoy your stay in New Zealand as much as I did x). Pip then sets the standards by being issued stinger suit nu...
