Back in Melbourne - back to reality....

by Jo Spong


What a great month Al and I shared on holiday overseas! So many sites, experiences, and photos - approx 700! But we are home now, back to "the real life".

We arrived back in Melbourne last Wednesday at 1:30am. One week later now and I think we are only just starting to overcome the jet lag. We have both been fighting some sort of throat infection which has been a pain....we will fight on however (just had a glimpse of the William Wallace statue in Aberdeen and felt inspired to fight on! :p).

Not much has changed in Melbourne since we were gone. Good news is - Melbourne is getting a Costco. Bad news is - our basil plant has completely died (basil plant number 3!). Other than that, things are the same: the neighbours are still arguing and australian tv is still very very ordinary (thank god for foxtel - dr phil and oprah around the clock...bring it on!).

We will soon be updating the OS holiday photos on this blog to include the Italy ones, so if you get a chance, check them out. There will be a great photo on there of a gypsy woman approaching Al at a cafe :p
