Our trip to Australia
was quite the experience. Katie did really well considering. Gravol works wonders :) she wasn't even too scared of the bathrooms on board the aeroplane. She was quite scared of the first aeroplane in Smithers when we left but we took out the portable dvd player right away and put on the Koala Brothers a movie she has about Australian animals and she settled right down. She slept the most out of all of us and even slept at Sydney airport where we had to wait for most of the next day. In Perth Steph's parents were there to pick us up on a 42 degree day and we were dressed in our jeans and had sweaters and jackets with us so it felt awful. Didnt sleep much the first few nights but figured it would begin to get better once we settled in. Katie is still waking up at 7 am every morning and is napping almost every day, which is unsual.
We drove down to Albany a few days after arriving in W.A and spent lovely relaxing days there with Stephs parents, trying to get out most days and see the sights. Ed and Richard came down and stayed with us for the weekend. On the 8th March we left Albany and drove via the South West to Busselton and stayed here for two nights.
