Well, from Darwin we caught the train to Alice Springs, it took us 23 hours which is longer then the flight from the UK. Finally made it to Alice though & stayed at the Alice Lodge Packer's, it was great, it was fun and friendly & would stay there again for definite! Whilst in Alice, we visited a kangaroo sanctuary, it was so good, the joey's were really cute. We also visited Uluru (ayres rock) it was so surreal seeing the big red rock up close. It was a long day though.
Tuesday we headed down to Adelaide with heading bush tours, we had a overnight stay at a place called Coober Pedy, which is a underground town where they mine Opal, we stayed in a underground Hostel, which i think used to be a mine, it was cool. We did a mining tour too. Once in Adelaide we caught up on our sleep and had to get a postcard for my Aunty (LOL).
Thursday, we jumped on yet another tour with Adventure tours and started our trip to Melbourne along the Great Ocean Road. It was so much fun, we met some great guys, Mike, Chris, James, Lorenzo & Rich. Our tour guide Adam was much fun too.
We arrived in Melbourne Sunday and we all went out. Met back up with Kerstin & Kate too, it was really good to see them again! Yesterday we visited the Casino, and met with Kat! we're here in Melbourne til Saturday when we fly to Sydney, so our holiday is over for a while, whilst we get work and a place to stay. but I'm sure we'll continue to have much fun.

Hi Victoria, It sounds like your still having a great time down under, seen your photo's on facebook and you look soo good. Stu came home a couple a weeks ago, he looks good, I think his on his own again, so he's on the look-out. Brum have Scotland Boss Alex McLeish as there new manager, I think the board wanted to get rid of Bruce. Any way bab I will say good night and remind me to Luara, keep injoying your selves and be careful. Lots of Love from Gran & Gramps xxxxxx xxx
