... of flies. I tried for 2 hours &amp; decided that there&#8217;s no point in wasting the day so I went &amp; swapped it for a tricycle. Once on my tricycle I was zipping it around! Loved it! We went to the beach &amp; checked out the area, however it was too hot to enjoy properly &amp; there were way too many flies on the island &#8211; something Kiran&#8217;s hates! But we did get to see wild quokers.<br><br>Diwali &amp; New Year is ...

... sealed.<br>Good times, lost times, ridonculous times.<br><br>Some events- in no particular order<br><br>-The Sunday session before Park Life with some old faces, like Paul Craig, showing up. 'I want to see all the lesbians in the pool' It actually turned out to be more fun than the festival itself as that ultimately turned into looking for people and losing them again, and having no idea which bands were playing on ...

... I had a quick shower then headed off to dinner. It was there I hit massive traffic again because for some reason, the driver decided to take me via the Nairobi showgrounds... as it was finishing for the day and all the cars were leaving. But again, I finally made it and we had a nice little fairwell dinner.<br>The next day I woke up for breakfast with the Giraffes. I fed Kelly and Barney through the windows of the Sun Room before later heading out and meeting Laura and ...

... A few pints later and we hit the dance floor. Jamie by this point is out of it and showing off his crazy dance moves and I am checking out the guys. Not too impressed although there is some older geezer who looks a little like Karl Kennedy.<br><br>We leave and Jamie gets kicked out and we head up the road. Ito the hostel and I am met by 2 guys hollering after me to get me to go back out with them but after a few minutes of deliberation I opt for bed.<br>

... to get him to call me by my name I was considered to be the same as the Officers and as such had to be called &#8216;Sir&#8217; by the crew. <br><br>My cabin consisted of two rooms with a lounge style room and then the bedroom with an attached small bathroom. I think I can safely say that it was the best accommodation of the trip so far and being on the fifth deck just below the bridge my window views were the best on the ship. No sooner had the Steward put my ...

... on me and found bed bugs in my bed. Luckily Patrice rang up and saved me from my gloom and I headed to hers for the evening with good folk, drunk Pictionary and crazy weather. I crashed at hers and then went job hunting. Walked into a deli and got a job! Its not fulltime yet but hopefully will be in the next couple of weeks. I get to work with cheese all day. Woot Woot! So Friday afternoon I felt like I could relax again and we all had a bbq at the hostel and ...

... down to business and sorting out our affairs and getting all the gadgets that James reconed we needed and the list was endless! It was great to catch up with everyone and spend lots getting all the gadgets(Not)( Not to the gadgets) Mark got to go to school and see all of his friends, show them his journal and talk about his travels to lots of very ...

... only see them with the mask. We had a good day, but lots of fresh air and excercise, meant Saturday was MY day of rest. We still have another week here, but will be moving Caravan Parks on Tuesday to central Perth (cos of the Easter Break) and will do some sight seeing in Perth (Kings Park) the Mint (They have a wheel too) etc. etc. And maybe a little retail therapy, due to a special day on the 8th !!!

... Some of the less known animals include: Quokkas, Echidna, Potteroos and Dama. The other highlight of the Park was seeing a Wombat up close. We thought they would be the size of a large Guinnea Pig maybe....but they turned out to be absolutely enormous - about the size of a small sheep! By this time it was starting to heat up again and so we headed for an cool drink before setting off back home for lunch. Missing you all at home as always xxx

... lunch at a restaurant which is right next to a distilery and brews its own ale. Usually ale tasts bad ice cold but because of the temprature its that much more refreshing. We went out at night for a few pints, was good we got to see more of the city and the night life is quite if its not a Weekend (apparently). Right better go, catch up soon.
