Hello again! This is Sarah..just seen Helen's last entry. Clearly she's a liar. My lizard is second to none.

So, sorry about not blogging over the last few months, we've been busy snorkeling, sitting on long distance buses, playing s***head, getting sunburnt, eating McDonalds, pestering Neighbours stars, hanging at a moonlight cinema in the park, bunking trams (note: Helen would like to make it clear that she never once bunked a tram thankyou very much), drinking goon, being in the middle of nowhere in the outback watching Robin Hood, climbing Sydney harbour bridge, going for a helicopter ride over Sydney harbour bridge and watching New Years eve fireworks over the Sydney harbour bridge. Boy are we sick of Sydney harbour bridge. Australia was really great and Al and Ali made it what it was. We are missing our Fornhart and our Eggoff now we've left, but we're looking forward to the New York reunion!

So we're now in Auckland which seems really nice and not so chavy as Australia. Tomorrow at 7.30 a.m. we are leaving and heading South doing a zig zag all the way down to the bottom of South Island and to Stewart Island. On the way we're hoping to do loads of New Zealand-y type things, and I'll be pushing Helen out of a plane if all goes well.

At the moment Helen is putting an album of Japan photos up so go and have a look at those if you like, and we should have time to put an Australia album to this blog entry too.

Happy New Year to you all, see you later this year!
