Downunder!

Hello from down under, Australia to be exact. What a whirlwind trip I'm on, Melbourne, Darwin, Brisbane, Phillips Island, Kakaduu, and Sydney, wheee I'm tired just typing all that. It has been a trying few weeks of travel. I think travel alone for this long is trying but add family members that don't totally get along and you've got STRESS!!! No one has strangled anyone yet, and we seem to be getting along fine for the most part. 

The house in Morning Side was amazingly beautiful and peaceful, Melbourne was a bit chilly but was very nice. Darwin has been EXTREMELY hot, 110 in the shade. We have a wonderful pool at the house and that has been a god sent, since you can't swim in the ocean rivers, or billabongs due to crocks. So the pool is nice. 

Kakadu has been the hottest and I will say has been very much like camping. We cook everything out on the barbie and sleep in a pretty nice hotel room, its a drive to everything and there is no internet access. I've been reading a lot of books and have been enjoying my solitude when I get it. 

We'll be off to Sydney soo and than home. I am really looking forward to Sydney, the opera house, the city and just enjoying getting back home to my own bed. 

I haven't met any smashing Australian men yet, but there is still time so who knows.  Mum would really like me to meet someone new lol just not sure is meeting him in a different country is all that smart. 

My next post will be from home and tons of pics. I took over 700 so far! Amazing shots. Can't wait to see them.
