Well the time has come to leave Melbourne and head back to Brisbane for a few days. First of all last night was brilliant. The little penguins were so cute waddling back to their homes from the sea. The drive there was long and our bus driver told us his whole life story over the microphone. I even got sssshhhhed for talking to another girl sat next to me. Apparently he couldn't concentrate on his speech if we were talking!!! Anyway, Mandy and I, (the girl sat next to me on the bus) went down to see the penguins in the cold winds.
As for today I went up the Eureka tower this morning which is 300 metres above the city and you can see out across the city. It was a perfect day for it as there was clear blue sky. I also went out on the edge which was a glass box that they move 3 metres out from the building so you can hover above the city. Having walked around the city for the last few hours my legs and feet are now totally ready to rest so I am heading back to the airport for my flight. You know me mum always there way too early!! Xxx

Mum Glad the penguins lived up to their press as the No 1 Attraction. No doubt you took some photographs. Can't wait to hear about your experiences. The tower sounds a bit scary just as well you are not frightened of heights - you wouldn't get me on the glass platform. Now only Sydney to see but first of all enjoy your final few days in Brisbane. I hope you are getting people to take pictures of you and not just lots of views - although they are nice to look at. You need to see if you can get a good picture of you and Michelle.
australian-adventure We couldn't take pictures of the penguins as the flashes stress them out and then they end up very ill. But off to see the whales today so will be sure to take lots of pictures today. Xxx
