Hey you two. Just had an hour looking at all your photos and catching up on the blogs. Did you know the architect who designed Sydney Opera House's first attempt at buildings was the Labworth Cafe on Canvey Island!!! I always get very jealous when I read what your up to. Very impressed with the waterfall and rainbow photos. BTW Richard can get cheap train tickets in Oz with his job let Mum know if your interested and I'll find out prices. xxxxx

P.S. The dorm was 20 feet from the Ocean on Bora Bora, not on the cargo ship!

Mark, if you ever lose your day job you can become a writer! I love reading your blogs (and Aimee's of course). Plus you never have any typos or spelling mistakes!! Very impressed! I assume you have a laptop with you....so belongings must be pretty safe at the hostels?? Can't wait the hear what kind of jobs you both get there. Oh! to be in my 20's again.....I would be right there behind you. I'm sooooooo jealous!
The only time I have stayed in a dorm was when I took a cargo ship from Papeete - Tahiti, to Bora Bora. Quite odd waking up amongst 9 total strangers!
Can't wait for your next blogs.
Aloha! Janet

Hi darlings, see Grandad had a bit of a stutter with his last message, lol! Well how's things, how are you finding OZ, is Sydney how you imagined? Sorry about the old geezers in your room, as you say only a couple of days before you're out of there? Any idea where you're heading to yet? We took the DVD's round to your Mum & Dad today Mark. Glad to hear the weather's better there, bet you'd forgotten what dry land was like hadn't you? All's good here I look forward to speaking to you soon. Take care luvya lots xxxxxxxxx
