Hello boys and girls!! Ok so I know it's been a while don't worry we're ok. I have been illwhich is why it's been so long but don't worry i saw a doc got me some penicillin and I'm back on track.

So lets see we were in Melbourne last well it rained alot there so we didn't do much just hung around the hotel and watched tv, surfed the net and stuff like that BORING!!!! We did go to the Zoo againa though on the one day the sun was out.

On Sunday we had to get up early oh it was such a bad night though, Paul got up to watched football at 4am and 2 of the girls came in with boys in tow GROSS!!!!!!! Then the lad above me was snoring Paul rocked the bed when he came in I thought the poor lad was gonna fall off ha ha ha. Ok so we got up in time anyway but we were both very tired, I decided to be noisy to get the dirty rompers back!!! We left our stuff in the storage downstairs and headed for a tram into town which we would switch for the train to Tottenham to pick up our trusty stead!!! OMG it was MASSIVE!!!! It was brand spanking new motor home and a luxury one at that tee hee we lucked out!!!! Check out the photos!!! Oh I forgot on the train we saw the undercover train ticket police!!!! They came from nowhere and there was loads of them, they should you there ID then you had to show them your tickets, Paul said someone got thrown off as they'd been using aticket that expired a week ago!!! Oopps

Ok yeah so the Road trip, we stocked up with food and headed for the road, we had our roady Mel for company but it was pretty bpring to be honest it was all about getting from a to b and Paul did alot of driving, I had ago but that thing was massive!!!! We camped for 2 nights but to be honest this is when I started getting ill so I stopped paying attention!!

We got to Sydney on Tuesday, we drove through the centre we went over the bridgeand back over the bridge then back over the bridge once more for good luck!!! Ha ha well we made it to Manly where we are staying to dump our stuff off, we were going to drop Mel back in the centre but we didn't have time so Paul told her where to get the ferry from. We checked to see if I needed to be there to get the bond back as all I wanted to do was go to bed, i had to be there!!! So we headed back to drop off the beast. No problems though got our fuel money back and our bond and we headed back into Sydney, we had a little walk around it's tres impressive!!! Then we got the ferry back to Manly WOW amazing views of the Sydney Harbour Bridge and the Opera House (Worth getting on even if your not staying in Manly!!!)

Ok so the next day I managed about and hour on the beach then laid in bed the rest of the day. Then Thursday Paul booked me in at the docs, so again I laid on the beach for an hour then the doc gave me some pills, then I went back to bed for a while. We went out for dinner as I hadn't really eaten in days and Paul kept telling me off so I had Carbonara YUMMY!!!! And yes I ate and Paul thinks thats why I'm better?!?!Anyhoo today I'm better and we've chilled by the beach most of the day now I'm writing to all my luvvys!!!

Ok so it doesn't really feel like x-mas to us but MERRY X-MAS and a HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!!! Hope you all have a wonderful time and get everything that you asked santa for!!

Love to all, take care, have fun, keep in touch, miss y'all!!
