Last day in San Francisco, Last day on the road, last blog entry! Apologies that its so short, no time on the internet left! On Saturday we lived the longest day of our lives when we crossed the international date line- day started off by checking out at 10am and waiting for a flight at 10pm! Luckily we just lay on the beach all day, showered up and headed to the airport. The flight to LA was 10hours long arriving in LA before we'd even left Fiji, we managed to sleep a bit but a medical emergency on board had me distracted as i pictured landing in Hawaii to cope with it! (in typical american fashion) we had to go collect our bags and clear immigration before just walking to another part of the airport to ... read more

Good Morning All, It's been an exhausting week here in New Zealand as well as social! We hopped across to the north island on the ferry, 3 hours long, on Tuesday afternoon, which got exciting when someone jumped up and shouted that they'd just seen a dolphin so we (along with the whole boat!) jumped up and low and behold there were dolphins jumping in and out of the water, it was like being in Titanic!! Upon arrival in Wellington, we walked about 700 miles more or less from the station to our hostel, during rush hour, before arriving and collapsing! After dinner and a bit of tv we headed to bed as i have developed a problem by which i wake up before 8 every morning so was ready to crash! Wednesday morning we headed ... read more

Well it's goodbye Australia already!! We spent Monday chilling, doing our washing, making plans for the rest of the week and also for NZ so we maximize our time there!! We went for a walk around the local area as well as making a cake out of whatever was lying around but mainly relaxed. We ate dinner with Lou and her brother before bed- very basic day sorting out our bags, lives and making plans really! We did pop out for a short walk and smoothie which was also known as a cup full of yoghurt! Tuesday morning we set an alarm to wake us up bright and early so we could head down to Palm Beach which is like 2hours away and as well as being a beautiful northern beach the reason we chose this ... read more

Hello All- 2nd attempt at this after losing it somehow!! So after a relaxing Monday night in we had the aim of getting up on Tuesday morning and heading to Byron Bay but hopefully squeezing in a Koala visit first- sadly we realised that with the bus longer than expected something had to give so with Lynette's kind offer of another night we decided to head to Byron Bay first thing wednesday and go cuddle Koala's!! Upon arriving at the Lone Pine Koala Sanctury where u can watch Koala's and various other animals to your hearts content as well as getting the opportunity (for money of course) to cuddle one of them!! Having been completely besotted with them when visiting Australia as a child i jumped at the chance to have a close up photo with ... read more

Hello Group, Now moved even further around the world as we arrived in Oz on Saturday night! So anyway when i last wrote i was still in Malaysia. After a creaky nights sleep on the worlds loudest bed- me being an active sleeper- we went for brunch at Limau Limau a lovely little cafe on Jonkier Street before heading over to the Museum of Enduring Beauty to be fascinated and disgusted by the pictures of people with tatoos everywhere, lip discs in their mouths and immense weights hanging from their ears!! We happily spent ages walking around there as opposed to the Kite Museum downstairs which was disappointing!! Afterwards we went for a walk around and then headed back to pack up our stuff before dinner (lush roasted vegtable pasta)- most of the restaurants close quite ... read more
