G'day my little chickens me again, Im afraid i am still being really lazy at typing up my journal but im a busy girl ok! Wed 5th Jan Have a little lounge in bed till 9am and when i get up David is nowhere in sight so im guessing he has gone for a ride into town. Davids parents are coming over to see him and we are going out to lunch so he better hurry up back before the parents turn up. No such luck his parents arrive before David does so i have to keep them entertained for a while, lucky me. Luckily enough his parents are nice and it is only 5mins till he returns. We head off into San Remo for lunch and have some glorious fish, yum yum. We go to ... read more

G'day all, Tue 21st Dec Went for a visit to Melbourne to go and stay with Judys daughter Melissa for the evening. It took us a couple of hours to get there and it was a really hot day too. Melissa is lovely and is so bubbley and so full of life, she does yoga all the time and massages for a living. At her place she has two little dogs called Oscar and Archie and all they do is follow Melissa around everywhere and yap all the time but they are very cute. We all go into town for lunch and plan to watch Bridget Jones at the cinema later that evening. Melissa comments on how lovely and thin i am and asks if i work out as i look really toned (she obviously needs ... read more

G'day everyone, Fri 17th Dec Thought i would be good today so i went to a Yoga class with the over 50's. It was certainly an experience specialy when one of the old dears went to sleep and started snoring. I thought the yoga might get me being energetic and stuff but i went back feeling more tired and wanting to go to sleep. I read the newspaper this morning and the front page story was about an 18 year old guy who had been eaten by two sharks whilst out in the sea with his mates, it is so sad when something like that happens. Fantastic beach weather today so i go to the beach to see if i can find myself a hunky surfer (no such luck) and to top up my tan. The ... read more

hiya guys, As Christmas is getting nearer it is definately getting alot hotter here so i think i need to work on the suntan a bit. Thur 16th Dec Pop into town this morning to get something and decide that i will get some info on parasailing (xmas present to myself). On the way back we go to The Nobbies (big rocks in the sea before your minds start wandering elsewhere). Whilst on the boardwalk we look underneath it and see some little penguins they are soooooo cute and tiny. We get the binoculars out and have a look at one of the islands as there is always thousands of seals on there, but they look like black dots as they are really far away. We have a look at Smiths beach on the way back ... read more

i was going to rent a motorcycle today. i wanted to go to the Phillip Island to see the little penguins. but it was raining again! decided to head back downtown and do some shopping instead. by now i have lost my sandals and taking a shower bare-footed is never a good idea in hostels. by the time i was finished shopping, i had bought more than i could comfortably carry (a pair of sandals, backpack's rain cover, quickdry towel - blue one, i am not liking the green one i brought with me, a pair of hiking socks, extra battery for the digital camera, and a whole bunch of other stuff i am not sure why i bought). i went back to the internet cafe and do some more BLOG entries. so far i have ... read more

Hiya all, Sun 12th Dec We drive into town today and on the jetty people are fishing there is also a boat taking people out parasailing, hmmmm. I get taken to the local gallery and craft shop, only small but really cute. After the trip into town we all go to John and Judys friends who live just around the corner. The bloke brews his own beer so i get given some stout to try, yum very nice, i seem to be getting into drinking everything now. I get given a few of these and then have to go back and eat before i get too drunk as it is only lunch time. After lunch we all go and take the dog for a walk, the beach is less than 5 mins walk from their house ... read more
