Hiya me lovelys!

Weathers not too good today so thought id give you a little update on our travels (arnt you lucky!) Well not that impressed with Cape town. Dont get me wrong its a lovely city but its really dodgy. Were stopping in the really nice part infront of table mountain but even still i dont even feel safe walking to the shop. Wherever you go a scruffy african will just appear from no where n its really intimidating. Most of them are probably harmless but when you hear all the stories of people getting mugged all the time its hard not to be suspicious of them. We've had a really nice time over xmas though, especially with sabrina and laura here too but they've gone home now so feel like were on our tods abit and feeling a little homesick too.

Seen so much of Africa now and to be honest much prefer the more remote parts to the built up cities full of tourists. (god im sounding like you mum!!!) Having said that though im sure if Jo n em were here then id be loving the clubs!! Gutted ive not been to a decent one yet but we've been going out for meals then sticking to the bars that are near to us. NEED A PROPER CRAZY ALL NIGHTER!!!

So i wa sat sulking a bit last night missing you all and said to me little mate...'b***** it, lets sack off the rest of south africa and get ourselves over to oz' Stephen agreed so he's now on tinternet at side of me trying to sort out the flights, bless him, he does everything like that, im useless and lose everything so he doesnt trust me to do owt!

Feel like we've not really done alot in cape town apart from the wine tour but its been nice to just chill out and relax in luxury after the past hectic 6 weeks. Really wanted to see the garden route upto Jo'burg but would rather move on to oz now. It would have alot to live upto anyway having been to all the gorgeous places in other parts of africa. Going to be sad leaving this continent because Africa is such a special place and got so many amazing memories of it. (god im sounding like a right tit so ill shut up now!)

Hope you all have a fantastic new year whatever your upto. Keep emailing me cos it makes me day especially when im feeling bit homesick.

Lots and lots of love,

Al
