Trip to Australia - Its over....


Monday, 2nd December

Today we just relaxed - visited the shops and bought a mud cake to have with a coffee - went for a walk in the park (I forgot my camera!).  In the evening we went out for a meal - the last supper - before I departed the next day.



The man of the house had ribs....apparently you get a bib with this dish




My friend had fish and chips




I had vegetable lasagne! 

All large helpings......and we still had a huge icecream sundae each afterwards. 




And then it was all finished and cleared away!

We should really have walked a mile after that, but we didn't!!


Tuesday 3rd December

The holiday has come to an end.  I need to be at the airport early, so just enough time to visit the local supermarket -  for a brisk walk.  It wasn't really necessary as we decided to walk to the train station anyway - 2 miles.  It was a very pleasant walk and since I only had light luggage on wheels it wasn't too much of a problem.

A quick snack at the airport before saying goodbye, and boarding the plane.

A long long journey home - leaving Sydney with temperatures in the 20s and arriving in London with 4 degrees......cold....very cold.

I am now planning my next trip - when?   I do not know yet and it might never happen.  Next time I want to do more sightseering - fly to Perth, take the train across the Nullaboor plain to Sydney, fly to Cairns and travel (slowly) down the East Coast to Melbourne.  Take in a few more sights.......

  2. Glad you enjoyed it all - and perhaps you should start planning and saving right now whilst you are still in the mood for big travelling!
