... a horse riding trail, cars can be driven into the park and parked at various areas in the ground. There is a cricket pitch as well as some aussie rules pitches, it has barbeque areas and cafe/restaurants.
Anyway, I’m gona allow my partner in crime to write a little as she wants to share something. Here we go:
While my husband is at work, I have become a proper little house wife, I make sure dinner is ready for him every day. Anyone who knows me well knows that ...

... 2 O'CLOCK PEOPLE, thats like a whole 8 hours of trying to figure out what to do in this massive weird city while I am in desperate need of a sleep and a shower. So to sum up, again, don't like it. You would think though that if you book into a hostel and your coming from the other side of the world they would have ...

... Phillip Island for the day. Went to the working farm there, fed some animals, Kelly milked a cow and I milked their bull, though the milk tasted funny! After that we went to a Koala sanctuary, then it was the main event, at dusk we plotted up and watched the penguins come out of the sea and head inland, very cool. The following day we went to NGV Australia then went to the State Library and saw Ned Kelly's armour, pretty cool. In the evening we met up with Kate our mate from our ...

... me. Heck, I would've even paid some of it and they could have kept their free drinks and slightly upgraded TV dinner food. Just give me the big, fully reclining seat.


After my arrival I checked in to my hotel room on the 30th floor and took a brief nap and grabbed a hot shower. My room has a great view of the Sydney harbour, a schooner/tall ship, and the infamous Sydney Bridge. The hotel is a typical ...

... from Tony, Siobhan and little Grady - so nice to see you guys before we go!

Mark is currently in front of his laptop, trying to work out what we'll be doing for the last week of our trip when we travel between Troon and London. And I'm busy, busy, busy on mine trying to get through a last-minute avalanche of work.

And tomorrow we pack!


Sydney, New South Wales, Australia milnefamily

... Kaw and Queensland I fill my diaphragm and pronounce Ireland clearly and in prop** english. Of course he asks wh**e and I say "The North" pronunciation and english still v**y much intact. "Oh, North**n Ireland" he says all intrigued and feeling quite contrary, I reply "Well, if that's the name you're putting on it". I instantly feel like a ********. He gets the message. As do the two Queensland**s who it turns out have only moved to Queensland in the last 10 ...

... boat trip in and of itself. It was cloudy when we left and pretty cool, but still nice. At the Taronga Zoo, you take a ski lift gondola above the zoo from the bottom the hill by the ferry to the top entrace of the zoo where people come by car. I have never been to a zoo with it's own ski lift gondola...but anyone who's ever been to the National Zoo in DC will agree with me that it needs one so that you don't ...

... asked about upgrades in one last-ditch effort. Whether it was "compensation" for the delay in processing the ticketing, or if it was because it was the end of the shift, or if it was simply because the man was a kind soul, we do not know. What we do know that what went down was this:

T: Is there upgrade space available to Business on our flight to Sydney?
Agent: Umm... yes! You can upgrade for $700.
T: Any chance we can use Systemwides ...
