you resisted the kangaroo scrotum bottle opener then! HI anne and all you seem to be having a great time I am so envious. We loved the Karunda railway but quite agree about the tourist tat in the shops. The things made out of bits of kangaroo were particularly gross but the bottle opener made from teh kagaroo scrotum really did make me cringe.
We did eat Skippy burgers though and you should try them Also look out for "Bay Bugs" which sound disgusting but are actually a sort of lobster tail and delicious.
I would love to see Humpbacks what a woderful sight Hope you had a fab birthday
found the BLOG Enjoyed the blog update and at times very funny sounds like the family having a lovley time and glad anne and family had party for her birthday ! See you when you get back Happy Hols Jackie
Goodwood. Great to hear that Mark is doing so well.
Just think how fit you will get, pushing that wheelchair is probably the same as performing some serious weight training.
The flights themselves have been great. Really comfortable, however there was a fiasco with my case at Sydney courtesy of Quantas.
how we laughed!! HI Anne I have told everyone about Mike missing the train and the overwhelming response was laughter! no one siad oh dear! Glad you got it sorted though.
How were the plane journeys have you run out of patches yet?
Glad you enjoyed Hong Kong and everything seems to be going more or less to plan.
I won two tickets to Goodwood Festival of Speed last weekend and mark was disparate to go so we borrowed a wheelchair. Gosh its hard work pushing a wheelchair especially on grass. I have a new respect for people who have to do this on a regular basis. Mark was able to help and could get out if things got tough too.
We had a great but very long day and Mark loved it so much he wants to go to another event there in September. I am not so keen.
Mark seems to be improving now so when I got home last night he had completely re arranged the garage including moving storage racking etc!
it made me quite envious to hear of your exploits in Hong Kong we really did enjoy it and it is great just to wander round as it is so very different from anything that you have seen before. Some of the food is interesting though!
Will keep checking to see how you are getting on

Priorities? Hi Anne, you sound like you're having a lot of fun. Which were you more worried about -losing your suitcase or Mike?!!
It's been bllomin hot her too - and very very humid. Not as exciting as Hong Kong though.
As you're now getting to be an expert with chopsticks we shall have to give you opportunity to use them on your return!

Fantastic - wishing you happy holidays What a lovely idea to have a travel blog, and what a fantasmagoric holiday you pair are taking, I'd love to be a little fairy in your suitcase and enjoy it all too, but failing that, the blog will be perfect. If you go anywhere near Yokahama in Japan please give my dear friend Tomiko a call for me!! I last saw her in Torquay when she was a mere lass 35 years ago! Peter and I will follow your trip with great excitement - have a wonderful wonderful time. With love
