If you've not been keeping up with my Aussie blog it's here: http://spatialtravellings.blogspot.com/
In brief, I am having the most amazing time and loving this side of the world. It's given me only atster and I'm definitely coming back for more. The free stuff in Melbourne, the AFL game,the chilled atmosphere everywhere, The Ghan, The Glorious Red Centre with all it's heritage and depth and the Great Barrier Reef - full of stunning life,some so small you have to spend 5mins staring at a rock to spot it and the the turtles and reef sharks.
Everyone should come here at least once - it has something fo reverybody :)

In the land of Oz
After months of planning and paying have finally arrived in Australia, wOOt!!! Am currently at a friend's house in Melbourne and trying to stay awake until 8:30pm so I can get over jet lag ASAP. Also my lower legs swelled up on the plane, bit weird, so hoping that resolves soon!

Off to see the wizard....
I have just done a scary thing.....
Spent a lot of money on my credit card - but don't worry Mum, I can pay it straight off on Sunday when I get paid!.
Now, normally, after spending anything like a large anount of moolah (even NOT on the credit card) I would get this slightly sick feeling in the pit of my stomach (usually the idication that it may not have been the sanest thing I've done) but I feel fine. Which just goes to show that....
going to Australia this summer is TOTALLY the right thing to do, man.... (imagine surfer with sea washed blonde locks saying that.....OK, now focus)
I did my research and got a good deal, the flight also includes 3 nights accomodation in Sydney, which'll be handy, and the lovely people at STA sorted it out.
All in all I've had a highly productive day. My beauty needs, at least 1 of them, have been sorted, my teeth got the OK from the dentist, and the opticians have sorted my new contact lenses. I've ordered my new passport, there's food in the house and I've returned some unwanted props. now looking into getting a visa. It's amazing what you can achieve on a day off.
