Hello! We can't believe we've got less than a week now in Perth and will be flying to Melbourne next Tuesday to start a new, scary, part of our travels. That means then, that this is probably our penultimate W.A. entry! With that said, we hope it's a good one :D After our last entry we headed to the cinema and saw 'The Lovely Bones' which was a very good, if not slightly chilling, film. Our trip to the cinema really made our point about how long everything tak...

Hello! Happy New Year! We hope everyone's 2010 is going great already. Last monday we had a bit of a shambles of a day as we tried to arrange going to the cinema with Ellen and Chuey and it all fell through. After we had faffed around with that we went for a walk along the beach and to the little cafes at the end of them. We watched a film and went to bed. So being in Australia clearly makes no difference to the blah days that follow christmas and preceed the ne...

Hello! Hope all is well and christmas was the best ever!!We left our house-sit in Carine on the 22nd and spent the afternoon unpacking - again!

After our entry yesterday we were picked up by Chuey and James and we went to the Supreme Court gardens in Perth city centre for the IGA Carols by Candlelight. It was so beautiful, the carols were lovely ...

Hello. Carrying on from the last post, that night Mary-Ann found another cockroach when she went to make a cup of tea, and successfully took it outside. We then watched Hot Fuzz for the evening. The next day (Tuesday) we went for a swim in our pool, but we couldn't stay in very long as it was only the mid 20s and we got cold. To warm up, and because we had been dying to try it out, we had a spa bath in our bathers, with lots and lots of bubbles. Unfortunately t...
