Hi everybody.

Hope you had a lovely Christmas and New Year. We spent Christmas with my Auntie Emma's Family who were all lovely. It was the coldest christmas on record in Melbourne so we didn't go to the beach. We still went swimming in the pool though, which was freezing. We went to see the cricket at the MCG which was very exciting. We were sitting a couple of rows from the front on the ground level and were really close to the action. Unfortunately England didn't do that well, but we still had fun. Spent a few days over New Year at a friend of Emma's house. It was a holiday home on the beach in a place called Sorrento. We spent most of the time in the pool which was really warm.

Went to Adelaide a few days later. The city is really nice and there are lots of free museums, galleries etc. Arrived on Kangaroo Island yesterday and had an action-packed day seeing wild seals, sealions, kangaroos, koalas and penguins. It is really peaceful here and we wish we could stay longer. Going to do some walking and hopefully see some pelicans today before going back to the city.

Pick up our campervan on Thursday, can't wait!!
