Well we arrived in Oz on 23rd March and have spent time doing some sight-seeing, getting used to the heat and buying our home for the next 11 months or so. We are staying in a great YHA in Glebe just out of town - the staff are really nice and it's not as big as the massive hostels in the centre. We are here for another week so we've got plenty of time to do more exploring and some shopping too! We've been to see an Opera Hits Show in the Opera House and Alice in Wonderland in 3D at the IMAX. Our favourite things so far are the Opera House and the Botanic Gardens as there are loads of tropical birds and massive,very noisy (they are mating at the moment) fruit bats.
Fruit bats dangling from the trees!

Our home for the next year - it cost a fortune - let's hope we like it and we get most of our money back when we sell it!

Hi both, blimey are you making us so very envious! We've been back in the uk for about a month, Dales got work and I've applied for posts but we too are currently looking for a new home to buy in Cwmbran South Wales. Keep taking pics and sharing them......funny, but it makes me feel 'home sick' when I look at the pics we took during our tour of NZ.....still cant believe we have actually 'done it' All the best Mo and Dale xxx
