Hello Everyone Been really busy since our last blog! Having a fantastic time, weather is brilliant been around 30 all week!! Went on a winery tour on Saturday which was brilliant 5 winerys and 6 wines at each winery couldnt of asked for a better day!!! The Fremantle prison tour was really good and very spooky! In our photos we have quite a few o...

(I managed to delete my photos from today so you'll have to settle for some images stolen from the internet) Five straight days of at or above 100 degrees I come down with a cold (dehydration is likely the culprit)....Anyways, being that today is the strangest of all days and that it is the end of another month I will take the liberty of waxing ...

Last night was really the last straw at Planet Inn. A group of noisy young people were talking - loudly - outside our door until the early hours of the morning, with a lot of f-words and drunken singing. The new (Irish) occupant of the bunk above Yoong came in very late, but not on his own. He brought in another guy to share his bed. Yoong prote...

Arrived in Perth on Friday. Flying down the Western Coast before landing was great. You could see the white sandy coastline and the mixture of blue waters and it was beautiful. Can't believe we have finally made it to Australia. Quarantine rules in Western OZ are very thorough. Smugly,I filled in my landing card confident that after my humiliati...

We arrived back in Perth to more great hospitality from Mike and Ann - they'd even bought gluten-free flour to make some bread for me. Awesome. We had a BBQ that night with them and two of their daughters - it was nice to see a family in action again! Next day we went to Perth using the excellent train system - it was free to fare-dodgers like m...

Well, not put off by our last excursion (or maybe it's long enough ago that we'd forgotten how knackered we were after it...) Jason and I headed back to the Swan River after Boot Camp to enjoy a few hours of kayaking... We even managed to convince Dougal that it'd be a good idea - Sam was supposed to be coming along as well, but something came u...

Well here wea re nearly at the end of January already.Can't believe it. Time is going so fast which worries me as that means I'm giong to be home before I know it. Christmas was great but very different here. Singing Jingle Bells in your shorts isn't very christmassy at all. But we made of it what we could. Christmas morning myself and vin went ...

AFRICA TO AUSTRALIA While i was excited about Australasia it was with some regret that i finally left Africa. In the end i was totally engrossed in the gritty day to day adventure of the place even accepting that South Africa was considerably more developed than Mozambique or Zimbabwe. My sense of regret was exacerbated by my poor luck on airpla...

4/3/06 Jim Snell: Today is the first full day with my hosts Maxine and Colin Harrison. Colin invited me to go with him on his morning bike ride, which was good because these morning rides would be my only exercise while in Rossmoyne. When we returned from the ride, we did a little gardening, pulling up the fading tomato plants from the Harrison'...
