Well im sure there is more but its been pretty relaxing here in Perth, the weather is so gorgeous here i am going to struggle to live anywhere else in the world as it has been beautiful weather since jan and its now June with odd showers every 60-70 days or so! seriously. I believe WA has the best beaches in the world so far and its so laid back it is going to be really hard to leave.

We will write again once we finish work on July 3rd!!! not counting down i love Armadale really. Does it sound like a bad place hehehe

on the 11th July we head north on a tour up the west coast stopping at many places and camping along the way towards a place called Broome. We fly to Darwin in the Northern Territories. Then we have to get a 24hr train to Alice Springs to spend 3 days doing a tour through the dessert to see Kings canyon and the almightly Ayres rock (uluru aka). Then we fly east towards Cairns the party/diving place where we will spend about 3-4 weeks chilling on the great barrier reef.

Hope you all updated and i didnt bore you too much.

We are missing everyone loads and cant wait to see everyone in England - the mother land as i tell Aussies...they hate it its hilarious. x x x
