3rd December 2009 John Skinner	Happy Birthday - From: Rockhampton Qld to Kempsey NSW Hi Marilyn, Just a e-mail to wish you a Happy Birthday (a card is on it's way to home), we trust you have not been caught up in the chaos of the fires, but you must have had to endure the record tempertures that we saw on TV. As I type this, I can hear the rain beating on the window. Anyway we hope you have a good birthday to-day! Love John and Bobby
20th November 2009 Bev Ager	Rochampton Qld to Kempsey NSW - From: Rockhampton Qld to Kempsey NSW Marilyn and Trevor Have been following your blog with interest, but old computer would not accept emails. Now have new computer and on broadband and so new email address now to use. Please let us know what email address we should use for you. By the way I am glad I did not see that snake! You have certainly been to some intersting places on your travels. Have a good birthday Marilyn as I don't know where you will be. Will email again when know what email to use.
4th November 2009 El & Nic	See you soon! - From: Rockhampton Qld to Kempsey NSW Hi guys - good to read another great blog. Just wanted to thank Marilyn for the lovely throw we just received - you are clever, and the colour is perfect - talk to you on the weekend! lots of love El, Nic and CJ xxx

25th October 2009 Jeremy & Michelle	Good Times - From: Rockhampton Qld to Kempsey NSW Hi mum & dad, great to see another blog! You mention Coffs Harbour being one of your favourite spots, it is the same for us too. We have mentioned many times since being home that Coffs is somewhere we could easily live. The little foals are just lovely and of course Lucy loves looking at those pics. Ha, the bat poo at Gracemere was quite bad, we didn't battle with it nearly as bad as Nick & Sal did as our site wasn't under trees but it was a daily thing for Nick & Sal. Funny the things you remember! Glad to read that the good time is continuing and but have to admit that it was good news to hear your heading back home.....especially for Lucy. Take care and we will talk soon xxxx Goo, Michelle & Lucy
20th September 2009 Dina	Nth Qld - From: Paronella Park, The Whitsunday Islands etc., Hullo travellers, am just catching up on some of your news, well overdue - we've been offline for five weeks. Finally fixed the #@***# thing. News of Whitsundays etc, oh it sounds and looks absolutely wonderful. Sunshine Coast is my most northern destination so far. What a lovely Lizzie story. Thanks too for her pic, she's gorgeous, looks bright and intelligent. Thank goodness her traumatic life hasn't affected her. John and I are off at the weekend for our two week camping trip through the Gibson Desert to Ayers Rock (brrr!) then Coober Pedy, Lake Eyre, Flinders Ranges and back on Nullarbor. It'll be fabulous! I am going to northern Japan in November/December to visit our son in Hakodate, that's an impulsive decision, suddenly ready to visit. I won't write a missive, just love to keep in touch with you all. My love and best wishes travel with you. Dina S
17th September 2009 Carol	next installment - From: Paronella Park, The Whitsunday Islands etc., Wonderful reading Marilyn, feels like we are with you. Keep enjoying the trip. Love to you all. Carol

2nd September 2009 Carol & Ted	latest blog - From: Mossman - Cairns - Cooktown and surrounds. Hello me dears. This latest blog certainly brings back such happy memories or our visit with you last year. Hey you could get a job as a tour guide now! Keep 'em coming great reading. Love to all 4 folks and a tickle to the 3 four legged friends too. XX
2nd September 2009 El	lovely pics - From: Mossman - Cairns - Cooktown and surrounds. Hello intrepid travellers! Just wanted to say what an enjoyable read your latest blog was, despite your mishaps. Lovely pics too. Happy belated birthday to Trev. love from El, Nic & CJ xx
2nd September 2009 Jude	Sad old memories - From: Mossman - Cairns - Cooktown and surrounds. You are truly stirring them up. You two are seriously good tourists - you actually look and react to things around you - rather than the "it's Tuesday, this must be Belgium" approach. My Molly is well but I have put out the word that she needs a small companion. Her blindness is so isolating and I now fear we are becoming too needy with each other. It still breaks my heart. Stay well you three - when are you coming home? I need a haircut! Love to you both - I do miss you. Jude
17th August 2009 Carol & Ted	butterflies - From: The Gulf Country and The Atherton Tablelands. Hello me Darlings. Lovely reading. We have 2 blue butterflies on our front door bought when in Mossman with you last year. They haven't bred yet though!! Love your travel diary. Well done. Love you Pat & John, Nigel & Michele when you see them, but a whole lot more to you & Trevor. Happy travels.X
15th August 2009 William Brett	Foot loose layabouts - From: The Gulf Country and The Atherton Tablelands. Gotta be honest. Today 15 Aug/09 is the first opportunity I've had to check your blogg. Quite fascinating. Have been doing my best to look after Annie. Dementia is difficult. I finally had to take a back seat for a few days to recover. But last Thursday gout took over my right foot, so I am no further forward except the gout is now under partial control. The dogs have had to make do with my front and back yard. Today I can put some pressure on the foot thus I can hobble here and there at home. Friends have brought me a few things from the IGA. I talk to Jude almost every day, or vice versa. I hope I have persuaded her to NOT quit on her mammoth Uni studies since she is more than 75 % thru them. Most of all I envy the climatic warmth you must have found in those latitudes. Here we have endless gales, horizontal rain and a thermometer STUCK at 16C--max. I may emigrate. Please take care and stop falling about! William

27th June 2009 Dani and Trevor	Warm breezes - not. - From: Broome, Western Australia. Hi Marilyn and Trev, you certainly chose the right time to head north! Almost since the day you left we've had wintery weather and all it entails. There were voilent storms expected this week and as I write this on Saturday morning, apart from some wind and rain, they haven't arrived. The high speed Rottnest ferries were cancelled due to the rough sea, but we're still waiting for "the other shoe to drop." We're sure you're enjoying the balmy breezes and interesting scenery, and good luck to you!
