Wow....where to start!

Hello everyone! We have been internet free for the past eight days and to be honest we have been having too much fun to give two hoots!

We are now in Melbourne for a couple of days prior to hopping across to Tasmania.

Two things have struck me since I have been in Australia which I hadn't full grasped, firstly, Australia is a bloody long way from anywhere and anywhere in Australia is a bloody long way from anywhere else in Australia!
Secondly, why on earth would anyone born and raised here ever want to leave! It is a truly amazing country! What is wrong with you overseas Aussies? Why did you leave and why haven't you come back?

As you may gather we are having an extraordinarily good time. I have so much to write and so many photographs (on one whale watching trip I took 278 pictures.......I know but it was AWESOME!)

First up was Sydney and our apartment was fanbloodytastic! Sue had carefully selected it but it exceeded our expectations.

From our veranda we looked out onto not only the Opera house but also the bridge! Needless to say we photographed them both from every possible angle and in every possible light.




I am tempted to carry on writing about the trip but Sue is prowling and Angus wants to go for a swim so for now, thats your lot!

I will be posting again soon

The Sydney harbour is really something special, what a fantastic view you got from your room.
Shame you must have gone past us, i could have taken you to a few farms, but anyway.
Have fun
