"Welcome home" - back to Sydney and the reality of alarm clocks, work and all the washing, ironong and cleaning!!!! mmmmm sse what you've missed out on?

Am really delighted to know you've successfully completed your ADVENTURE and we too have been on a most amazing journey with you. You're now rather articulate with photography complimenting your naration. Wow Bryn Celynnog had some purpose in your life other than Pot Black cafe eh!!!! Shame about the gay boy image in blue YMCA style!!

Happy house hunting and hope back to work is not too painfull!!

Luv Ma goose xx

Me again

So you know, I'm not embarresed, the acid man looked like he was alittle hot and sweatty. Thought I would sympathise with you both!! Aaaah to camomile lotion xxx BM& K & LM O XXX

WOOOOOOOOOW!!! Where do I start. The blogs are so imformative, it's as if I'm there with you and the piccies! Say no more........no really, the whole way through the barrier reeef pics I was trying to find Nemo! I was wondering if you found any old cast from neighbours in Darwin? it was there or Perth they seemed to run away to. The croc shots were very impressive, I see what you meant by almost on his back legs!!! The beaches with the palms could have doubled for Bounty adverts, but I know theyweren't shot there, actually they were in Crete, been there!! We were in West Wales last week, had a little rain ourselves, but Cenarth falls didn't quite copmpare with barron. The shots are spectacular, (I am so impressed) I agree that darwin & cairns lok good, but everything seems to have it's own charms, who can decide on a permanent location?

Looking forward to the next lot, Killer back in work tomorrow so I'm solo in charge of the busiest, shoutiest little cutie monster!! Hope the scar holds up ha ha xx

Love you both and take care, Don't get wet now!!!

Thanks for the call on Olivia's birthday, that was really sweet of you guys. She has had a great day and we partied again on Saturday with all the family round. It was mad and very cozy. Well your trip just gets better and better. I bet going in land was fun ...if a little scary. And the pics of you swimming in the pool of the waterfall made me think of the scene in Dundee, minus the thong bathing costume and water bottle!! I'm glad you spoiled yourselves with abit of luxury, recharge the batteries for the next 5 weeks eh? Take care and looking forward to the next instalment xx Killer says hi, he's good at this house husband lark, but he can't wait for me to take over again!!! love you,

Hi Gem & Rich

This is the first time I have checked this out since you left. Took me over an hour to go through it all. You have been up to so much. So I gather there has been no problems with Kangaroo's or towns where the cousins marry each other?

Gem, everyone at Grace really misses you. As you always told me "Thank the lord I'm Welsh".

Ola Rich and Gem,

This is truly turning out to be a most wonderful experience for you and us!! Keep the stories and photos coming- we love it! Travel safely and enjoy!! ps you missing a BED and BATH??? 6am alarm clock call?? We are all so jealous.
