My dear friends!

Thanks for all our messages ( Kay.. took me day to read yours!). In rainy but delightful Cairns at mo, though leave here tomorrow & head up north to Port Douglas. Weather has been fab but I really missed the weather back home so requested rain this morning! Visited Karunda (village way up in the tropical rainforest) yesterday via the skyrail, magnificant views! Cairns generally is lovely, lots to do & see, will be quite sad to leave tomo, but we are going on to visit multitudes of other fab places. Am home alone at moment as ROB HAS DONE A SKY DIVE THIS MORNING! Am currently checking his life insurance policy! He tried desp. to get me to do one............ mmmmm..... NO CHANCE!

Have some bad news... unfortunatley we won't be able to share our photo's with you all as we were (or Rob was) playing around with camera and deleated all ofe them, all 200ish!!!! very sad but not the end of the world. So we are frantically going to rush round Cairns today taking repeated photo's!

Well I miss you all (really)! But not home sick just yet. Mom, Mom/Dad,Dawn & Paul, Ju and Jen and families: love you lots & miss you... kisses for kids. Friends: wish you were all here with us, give a pat for baby Amy! Guys on Ward 6: don't work too hard! Lou & Lee: having a drink for you in every pub!

Keep posted & lots of love Kel & Rob
