We’ve been home a couple of weeks now and we’ve been busy catching up with family and friends (even managing to surprise grandma Pat with Tom being home), eating foods we missed, celebrating Christmas/Easter is May, and unfortunately going straight back to work🪏

See next post for Pats big surprise💗

Our last weekend in Australia, back to Perth to catch up with some of the friends we made on our travels, back to Fremantle markets for the 10/10 food, and of course watching as many sunsets as possible! What a blast this last year has been, we’ve been so lucky to be able to experience it all- back to England now with a whole new outlook on life and finding joy in everyday, even during harder times. Thank you for all following along, we will have one more post from our returning weeks and maybe the odd one down the line💗

Week 47: a week in Cairns, and our last week with Toms mum and dad. We’ve headed back over to Perth now (photos next week). Cairns was a busy week full of so many exciting adventures, travelled up to Kuranda in the daintree rainforest, we snorkelled the Great Barrier Reef (and Lois flew over it), we did sunrise kayaks seeing sharks and turtles, and Tom and his mum did a skydive. Such an amazing time and great memories made 🐠🌅🛩️

Week 45: we’ve met up with some familiar faces (Tom’s mum and dad) and are having an amazing time exploring. We started in Sydney, did the opera house and harbour bridge, the botanical gardens, visited Manly and got the ferry back, and walked from Coogee to bondi beach - the sea was a bit strong but we still had a dip! Then we flew over to Uluru in the Northern Territory, where we had a lovely sunset tour of the rock. Sunday we flew back to Brisbane and went back to one of our favourite places- Mount Coot-tha. We’ve had so much fun and so much to catch up on🥰

Week 44: this week we left Brisbane for our last big adventure before we come back to England. We started in Auckland, New Zealand (Aotearoa) and have had the best time!

Starting with a day trip to explore the Waikato Region visiting Cathedral Cove and the Hot Water beach - where you dig on the beach and hot water (up to 60 degrees) fills up the hole making a spa like pool!

The next day we made our way down to Hobbiton to fulfil one of Toms dreams and see one of the filming location for the Lord of the Rings franchise. We had the best day and toms cheesy grin says it all. After Hobbiton we went to the Waitomo Glowworm caves where we travelled on a small boat through the cave river seeing glow worms light up the cave. Such a cool experience - but no pictures as it is bad for the glow worms.

Yesterday we spent the day walking around Auckland and had an amazing Chilean Meal for tea to celebrate our time in New Zealand.

Today we’re heading back to Aus for our next step in the trip. See you soon Sydney

Week 43: this week we met up with Toms friend from England, Elliot and his wife Zoe, it was so nice to spend the evening with them whilst they’re on their travels. It was Lois’ last week at work this week and she got an early finish on Friday so we both headed down to the Gold Coast for an afternoon at the beach. On Sunday we went into the city to the beach they’ve built on south bank, we will certainly miss having such beautiful free activities nearby when we’re back in England. But not long until our next adventure now! 🇳🇿

Week 41: only a few weeks left of work before our next adventure, not loving the early starts but LOVE the sunrises! This week we queued an hour for 2 for 1 Yo-Chi, watched the film adaptation of toms favourite childhood book, got massages, had a house meal and found a miffy at the bus stop. Not a bad week!
