| 28th August 2009 Kezza | Hi - From: Paris Hello Precious, Well long time since I have had a chance to read your blog. You can have a chat to Ashlenn about the reason for that!!! It looks like you are having a fantastic time. You look very well and happy. It is great to see the pics. All is well here. Our little 3 wk old is feeding just from me now. I was so happy to throw away the pump and bottles. We are getting used to parenthood, and she is just gorgeous. I cant wait until I can drive and get out and about, but I still have a while to go cos of the operation. We move on the 16th Sept, so forgive me if I dont have time to write for a while, but always thinking of you and stoked that you are so happy. Keep in touch, Slan go foill Kezza |
| 6th August 2009 anonymous | - From: Greek islands lucky you! yeah, frappe is the greek national drink. never been to any of those islands but they are just so beautiful and idyllic. so.....i guess basking in the sun, sipping on frappes isn't all that different from your life in your home city. lol plenty of grecians, plenty of sun..... |

| 25th July 2008 John | Ah, memories! - From: Murs, France. Hi Sis, I've got some good memories in Murs with Alex, Paul and Louie, so I'm very jealous that you're having so much fun there. I'm certain Kerry is very jealous too! Its a part of Europe where it really feels like time forgot about it, off the tourist track and a place where the locals behave just like their ancestors have. Things are going well at home although its bloody freezing in the mornings (there was ice on the car today). Had a fun time last night visiting Dad and Monique, and we finally got to meet Charlie (woooo Monique!). There's a nintendo Wii at the house now and dad & I will teach you how to play ten pin bowling when you get back. Dad will teach you how to hit a maximum of nine pins, and i'll show you how to get all ten at once! Take care Sis and keep sending the blog updates :) Love from your Bro, John |

| 20th July 2008 Suze | - From: Ireland Wow, loving the updates - bringing back memories of a road trip in Ireland. Never get roadside directions from an Irish man holding a mysterious object in a brown paper bag! I bet there are a lot of Irish folk that can say "pretty nice" quite well! |

| 27th June 2008 Kezz | - From: Ireland Hi Precious. Yup, we love Galway too. John lived there for 6 years before coming to Australia to live. It is so gorgeous. Did you meet Funghi the Dolphin in Dingle??!!!! xox |
| 24th June 2008 John | Ireland - From: Ireland Hi Sis, I'm surpirsed that the troubles are still so obvious in Ireland. I remember when I was in Ireland in 98 that the troubles were still full blown but ever since I thought that it had settled down a lot and now people are getting along much better. Apart from that Ireland is a fantastic country. Glad to hear you went to the Giant's Causeway. I went there with a CoE priest which was an intersting day out. As for your obvious drinking problem, we'll have to discuss this upon your return... over some duty-free grog. Mum & Grandma are getting ready to leave as you may know. Mum's suitcase is so heavy that Dad may have to re-stump the house if she doesn't leave soon! Take care Sis, John |
| 21st June 2008 sliponshoe | been there - From: Ireland Easter 2002, during my year in Leicester, I spent a week in Dublin,too. had plenty of time to explore the city. I too went to Trinity College, the jameson distillery(where I volunteered to do some whisky tasting :o) and I also saw wilde's birth house and the guinness distillery. i also rode for half an hour to howth by bus, which is a beautiful peninsula on the coast and it looked just like from a picture book. very picturesque and idyllic. i should scan some pics for you. and i sat down in a tiny caf and who should be walking in? larry mullen from U2! i said hi to him and he patted mys shoulder. me and a german backpacker also went to mount rush which is a private garden(open to public with admission price) off city limits with amazingly gorgeous plants and flowers and a brook running through it. amazing! unfortunately, i didn't explore any other irish towns but i visited lots of museums and other places in dublin and i almost feel like i know the city. you and i should have explored it together. would have been "heaps" of fun. |
| 21st June 2008 Shanaaz | hi - From: Vienna, Budapest, Krakow/ Auschwitz, Prague, Berlin, Amsterdam. Awesome jump man! |
| 11th June 2008 Rosie | - From: Vienna, Budapest, Krakow/ Auschwitz, Prague, Berlin, Amsterdam. Hmmm!!!! I get this distinct feeling that you won't want to come home.Once smitten by the travel bug, it will always lay dormant, but never go.... I am a victim of such, & so will you be!! Your stories bring back Soooo many experiences of my own, with the various countries and places that you have(are) seeing.Thanks for letting me relive it all again!!! Yeah... lets meet up in London for that movie....only one prob.... the pop corn will have gone cold by the time I meet you! |

| 8th June 2008 sliponshoe | - From: Vienna, Budapest, Krakow/ Auschwitz, Prague, Berlin, Amsterdam. that german friend didn't like berlin, eh? ;o) i went to stonehenge six years ago but was totally disappointed because there were roads and noisy cars everywhere. and you can't touch the stones either as they are cordoned off. But salisbury(the town near stonehenge) is tiny and very picturesque with a beautiful cathedral. and bath is beautiful, too. you're gonna dig south engerland. |

Glad you are finding time to post to your travel blog. Miss you! |
| 11th May 2008 John | Mother's Day - From: London- Tower of London, Florence Nightingale and Kydi's birthday. Hi Sis, we went out today for Mother's Day to The Grand Hotel in Mornington with Mum, Dad, Grandma, Otti, Monique and Kerry. The food wasn't too bad (I had Kangaroo which was ok) and afterwards we went for a walk to the pier. Dad found a Kombi owner in dreadlocks with a bull terrier that he talked to for awhile which was fun to watch. Other than that I got Mum and grandma travel pillows for their upcoming trip. Mum, as is expected, is distraught about your incident with the London cabbie so we all took turns consoling her! So that was Mother's Day... didn't want you feeling like you're missing out on anything! Love, your Bro, John |

| 9th May 2008 John | To walk or not to walk... - From: Glen's party and London- Day 2 Ahh, you're in a strange country so you decide to go for a short walk which then turns into a long, long walk, a walk that invaribly leads to blisters and chaffing! We've all been there Sis! |
| 9th May 2008 John | She made it! - From: Flight, Hong Kong airport, arriving in London. Hi Sis, Glad to hear that you made it all the way to Europe. Like I said, Hong Kong is definitely worth a visit so maybe the little you've seen of it so far will entice you to go back. Enjoy London and take care. Little worried that you got hit by a cabbie! Lots of Love, your Bro. |
