On the road again!


















Hey guys! Here are a few photo's to go with the email!
Its been an amazing few weeks - photo's just dont do it justice but i'll give it a go!!
1. The worlds biggest glass structure is a cone at the top of Melbourne's central shopping centre. Inside the cone is the old lead shot tower - pretty impressive stuff!

2. The 12 aposltes - well actually there are only 11 now as one fell down in July but some are under the water so you can only see a few! typically it started rainign just as we got to them. We hired a car for the weekend and drove the great ocean road and did philip island to see the penguins which was awesome. We had beautiful weather right up until then!

3. London bridge - another cool natural thingy on the great ocean road!

4. Ramsay Street - this was the best picture I could get as they were filming but you can see how small it is! I'll try and get some better ones when we go down tomorrow.

5. Kata Tjuta (Olgas) These were amazing. The views and surroundings were like nothing i've ever seen before. I would go back there tomorrow. You can see my two italian friends climbing up the hill - hard work but well worth it!

6. Ayres Rock - what more can I say?!

7. melbourne at night! The skyline here is pretty spectacular. This was taken on the banks of the Yarra river outside the casino building. We had just seen Wolf Creek and I needed to calm myself down so took pretty pictures! Just as I took it, the water towers behind me erupted into massive gas balls! Every hour, on the hour the water sculture things do a gas show which is amazing but scared the life out of me!

No more Perth!













My time in Perth is rapidly ending which is so sad! I cant believe how quickly it felt like home but i've met some awesome people and had the time of my life so i'll be back........!!!

1 - The melbourne Cup at the Hyatt in perth - by this time we had polished off countless bottles of champagne so we were all pretty tanked! How fabulous does lisa look (turquoise hat and red hair) it really was an awesome day - even better was that we got paid to be there!


2 -In my efforts to find someone that can actually drink me under the table, I seem to be spending rather a lot of time in the Queens - the night pictured here was a little messy as Clare and I drank 5 bottles of wine between us!

3 - The Melbourne Cup is a massive deal in Australia - work took us all for lunch at the Hyatt and then we headed to the Queens to meet 'some meat!' Phil ended up entertaining us girls for hours!! Its amazing the effects a hat can have!!

4 - Jody and James - I worked with these guys at the Inglewood hotel and they're awesome!
