In Sydney at last. Bad weather has been following us down the coast so when we arrived it was raining and windy but o well. Its more expensive here by far, as expected but theresw so much more of everything, including shops (bad news for Sean). Saw all the sights Opera house, Bridge, Sydney aquarium, Sky tower and so on. The Opera house was not brilliant white as i would of expected but a cream colour, to stop the glare i have been told!!! The Aquirium was...

Finally in Fiji!! In auckland Soph and I had 45 mins to get all our bags checked in and ourselves and ended up running to our terminal. Which ws the furthest away aswell I must add. Southside Fiji from the air looked pretty much as i expected for a tropical paradise. Our hostel in Nadi is really nice and its right on the beach. Soph and I chilled out in our hammock and watched the sunset over the ocean, then the guys came over to ours to get dinner. Our out...
