Today is our last day in Australia. We went to collect our visas this morning which were all in order and then got packed. Now I had priced flights to India and they were £1200 each (which obviously I did not want to pay) and would take 20 hours to get there. So I had another search on Google and found Tiger Airways. For the princely sum of £250 each I managed to get flights as far as Chennai (somewhere in India not sure where though??) I then managed to get ...

I loves water I do, which is just as well as the majority of my time on this trip has been spent either in it or on it. Today we are off whale watching, now you dedicated blog followers may be thinking why are they doing whale watching again (as we have already done this in NZ). This time though we are going to see different whales, in NZ we saw Orca Whales (small black and white ones)in Australia we are going to see Humpback Whales (big black and white ones) Sim...

Well todays weather forecast is 32 so Nick and I stupidly decided to spend the day on the beach. Spent most of our time in the water whilst keeping an eye out for any sharks. Note to self: must remember to check if our insurance covers a shark attack on Nick as he is talking about going scuba diving. Left the beach when it started raining and just chilled in Christians' house for the rest of the afternoon - I do not use the word chilled literally as we are both...

Today we went shopping in Fremantle. We caught the bus from Scarborough Beach for 1.50 each (bargain!) and it took us along the coastal highway which was fab. Now before this trip I was one of those shoppers who knew what they wanted and I could walk in a shop choose what I wanted and pay for it within 20 seconds (Nick used to say it was like being on supermarket sweep). This however is no longer the case and I am ashamed to say I have turned into a nightmare sho...

Today was very hot so decided to just go to the beach. Didn't manage to stay on the beach for very long as it was too hot and the flies are a nightmare - there are millions of them in Perth and they go up your nose in your ears (just everywhere!) We did go for a swim in the sea which was very cold initially but was ok once we were in and there were no flies. When we got back to Christians he told us that the island just off Perth had closed all its beaches as two...
