hello my jayne dear!

Thankyou for the postcards i love getting lovely messages in the mail! it makes me day dream about wonderful places why i do boring science study...gross.

I dont know if you got my last myspace message or if you're of doing exciting and wonderful things!

But i love and miss you and keep in touch and tell me about all your adventures!!!

Oh my god! I am so so very jealous of you right now!  You sound like you are having so much fun! And Paris! Does it get any better?!?! While you are shopping for classy French lingerie and drinking $8 cups of tea I am preparing to start work again next week! Yuck!

Anyway I won't take up too much of your gorgeous Paris time!  Just wanted to say hey and am very happy you are enjoying yourself!  Mum sends her love!  Take care of yourself and keep fighting off those local French boys!

Love You!

Love Jess xxx

Hi Sarah,

Sounds like it's all going well? I can imagine what it's like in Paris because I have been there. Still can't quite believe that...I am sure you are feeling the same. Tom says that he hopes that you have  had a great time so far and that you enjoy the croissants. We are alll fine here and still working hard. Holidays are in two weeks so that will be nice. Loch comes home next week for a week on the 23/05/07. We have just celebrated mothers day in the Botanical gardens which was beautiful. Thanks for keeping us in touch. Love us Lindy Stevi and Tom xxx Ps: love to Ruthie xxx

Bonjour aussi,

Sarah, a bit disappointing that you didn't airfreight a Nepalese Yak to me for my birthday but it's good to hear that you guys arrived safely 'en France'. Showering would have been great and Paris would have been an eyeopener. You'd better beware the many charming approaches you'll get from those French guys (don't believe what they say and don't bring one home!). You will have arrived / be on the way to the Mediterranean by now and you should get lots of beautiful weather. Good luck with the jobsearch. Love Leen, Ricarda and Tyrone

Hi Darling,

Fancy you in Paris!  So wonderful! We had the same problem with the Eiffel tower ! Too windy to go any higher. but Wow! what a view! Sounds as though you've had some pretty uncomfortable moments, too. Never mind - they'll all be wonderful in retrospect! 

How exciting - going off to see the Notre Dame tomorrow! That great, grey, Gothic building was one of the most exciting sights in Europe for me! Just wonderful!

We're all missing you already! Mothers' Day picnic at the Botanical Gardens didn't seem the same without you! Soren and Ash came (which was lovely).  

I've had a very determined virus for the past week - so better get off to bed now.

Lots of love and hugs to you and Ruthie!

love Nan xx 

Hey Sarah,The description of your first trip in developing-world-style traffic made me laugh! I have also had the gob-smacked feeling (and praying that I won?t die!) during many taxi/motorbike rides... the pure chaos is kind of addictive after a while though, trust me! As to your trekking, it sounds pretty physically demanding (think what amazing shape you'll be in for the cruise ship work...) but also amazing scenery/people/foods etc.  Hope all continues to go well.

I've finally got another job in Vietnam - in Ho Chi Minh City - and will start work on July 9th.  So if there is any chance that you can have a stop-over in Asia on the way home (along time away, I know!) I'd love to see you.  Of course you can let me know much closer to the date. And pls put some more photos on your blog!!

Namaste sis (and some Om Shanti too!)

love, Christina

Hey Sarah! How is the circuit treating your crew? I hope you have all adjusted to the somewhat demanding way of life there. I am set to book my round the world ticket on tuesday (it is now friday night). New York City, London and home via Bangkok, and as many places inbetween! Once i book i will see what your plans will be from Sept throughout Oct. Oktoberfest? Yes i agree hah. Is it how you expected? I am very anxious. Well Bakker i miss you and our not-so-frequent tea dates. Send your mum my best wishes. I will send another message when i have some more concrete plans. Love always, Macca. P.S. off to melbourne on wednesday for 5 nights, it's no Nepal but it is a break haha! talk to you soon. xo

It's O.K. darling, I've worked it out! YAY!!  (Hope you don't have to pay for messages!) xx Nan

I can't find what i should click on to get your updates! Dumb? Help?

love, Nan x 

Hi darling,

Sorry about the 'hear' in the last message! lol

Thank your Mum for the Birthday song - and you for your message. We all went to Pier One for lunch, then up to Kerry's after. It was a lovely day! Missed you. though!

Soren came to the Queen's on Friday night - brought me a card from Ash - it was lovely to catch up with him.

Your trip sounds wonderful - if demanding. Hope your wogs are all better! 

Love to you  both - take care-

Nan xx 

Hi there Sarah,

Great to hear you have made it safely to Nepal! Hope it was a good flight.

Trekking in Nepal - What an awesome experience! I'm already green with envy! You're going to have an amazing time abroad I am sure just remember to trust your gut feeling.  Look forward to seeing some photo's and hearing more detail when you get a chance.

Have fun sis! and Hi to the other travellers!

Love, Gaibxx

Ps. Cam sends his regards and CG sends a big puppy dog kiss

Hey Hey to you all, sounds like you're having an adventure and a half!!!!  Have you seen a Yeti yet - we've heard they hang out just above 5000m!! 

How are you acclimatising and adjusting to a daily workout regime - but what a place to workout though !!  Looking forward to seeing your photos of the trek........

Keep on slogging and blogging!! 

Love n Hugs xxxxxxx
