While poor ol' Christchurch is being flooded and blasted with more earthquakes we are driving through the beautiful Australian countryside visiting family... Today we came about 3-4 hours south of Sydney to visit my Aunty Mickey and Uncle Geoff. It is *so good* to see them again! The picture I have uploaded of my cousin Georgia's farm just does not do this place justice. After dinner we walked up the hill (and were surrounded by wild kangaroo, as well as their minature Galloway cows and Alpacas) and looked over the lake and the native bush... It is truely amazing here. However, we need to get back to Brisbane because Sam is throwing a party on Friday so we are going to leave at the crack of dawn tomorrow.... 16-18 hours solid driving. WISH US LUCK! We will stop for the night if we need to, but if the weather is good and the traffic is clear we will try to just get back to her house so we can enjoy as much of Friday with her as possible.
It is so hard to believe this morning we were with Jess in Stanmore... the kids miss her already (especially lil' Lucy who got to sleep with Aunty JJ and totally take over her bed).
