Sounds like your having a great time You've done loads already and you've only been gone just over a week! Can't even imagine how much you'll have done in a year from now! The pic's are amazing.Can't wait to hear about the great barrier reef and see your pics from there. Keep having fun!What are the chances of meeting a doorman from RJ's on the other side of the world, reminds me of the time we bumped into shakin' Dave in Gran Canaria!
Lots of Love

So Jealous! I am so jealous looking at all your pictures! It looks fantastic! I'm looking forward to hearing about the great barrier reef, it should be immense! Missing you in Wallasey! Anna x

I want to cuddle a koala!! wow it all looks fab and sounds like your having a great time. Its so wierd that your going to loads of places Ive been too so loads of memories are flooding back! I remember being fed in woolpack...(I lived to tell the tale too) :o)
What are you like with strange men in your bed...you floozy...I dont care if you were asleep and had not idea he was there! ha,ha
Stay safe little sis and keep us informed, if you go diving (snorkelling is also really good over the reef) try and get a disposable underwater camera for some cool pics!) Keep on having fun, Im so jealous its really 'muggy' here at the mo so not so nice anymore. Your looking a bit brown all ready but dont forget slip slop slap (sunburn 3 rules!) :o) Loads of love Jenny xx
wow Hi Cathers,
looks fanatastic,glad youve caught up with some decent weather,sounds like you are having a great time and would love your voice again soon,keep save and watch out for strange people in your bed!
Glad you didn't have too bad a time on the planes and that you're there safe. The two girls you've met sound like fun; it's nice that you'll be able to meet up / travel with them. The weather is still good here, so we're off to the cricket tomorrow (with suncream, of course!). Hope it improves where you are. Look forward to your next blog, lots of love x x x
Fabulous Hi Cat, glad you arrived in Oz safely. I agree with Anna in that your blog is descriptive, you've written it so well, it feels like I'm there with you.
I really take my hat off to you for doing it, what an amazing adventure it is going to be. Keep safe and well,
Love Sarah xox
so its raining? *tee,hee,hee* Glad to hear you got there safely and that your already making new friends, dont let the big hostel put you off in terms of being a little unfriendly, we had the same experience there ourselves, its just because its soooo big and its much better in the smaller hostels which are more intimate and you get to know people better as the shared ammenities aren't spread out as much, many a new friend made in the kitchen. Cant believe its raining! Trust you to go to a raining Oz while we really are having a mini heat wave (at this moment Michal is wincing at his sunburn and moving like a robot (..more tee,hee,hee). I remember the Scubar!! its wierd your going to be telling us about some of the places I went to memories are flooding back already. The kings n queens party sounds good, keep the pics coming please! Safe journey to Cairns, love ya lots lil sis, Jen (and Michal) xx
Well done! For getting yourself there in one piece! Yes it's a gruelling flight and your body clock is all to pot but it will be worth it. Good to hear you've made some friends so you can leave your options open.
Looking forward to your next blog. Take care xxxxxxxxx
Glad you are safe! Hello!
Its good to hear you are safe and have made some new friends. I like your blog as its very descriptive! You'll be happy to know that the lovely weather that appeared a few days ago has now gone again and we are back to clouds. Hmmmm... wish I was in Oz!
