so what did i do in my last few weeks in Oz, well I spent Xmas Day on Bondi Beach and went to Gatecrasher which was really good, have to say it didn't really feel like Xmas - not used to spending it in the Sun and having pizza and beer for my dinner! I also met up with Lisa and Matt from home and had a few nights out with them. It was really nice to see them both.

I also spent a few nights back at Jen & Ants house, it was nice to catch up with them again and the rest of the family. I had my first roast dinner since travelling, courtesy of Brenda....thankyou!!

and New Year, well this won't be forgotten. We got out pitch about midday, we had intended on watching the fireworks at McMahons point, but after having been shopping for all our drink, we then saw signs saying no BYO...we could hardly disguise it either as there was lots of it (well we were there for 12hours!!). We ended up at a place called Clarkes Point over in North Sydney, but the view from there was fab. It was a long day, but so worth it, the atmosphere was something else.

I was sad to leave oz, as have made some good friends, but again, my trip continues...!
