Kansas

Well I ain't in Kansas no more!

I arrived in Perth (Western Australia) last night, at 11:30pm to a chilly night where I had to put on a cardigan straight away- this is exactly what I have waited for. The last few weeks in Singapore have seen me sweat my own body weight in water daily and the humidity and heat in SG has been relentless.

The Jet star flight here was, however, Horrific.

I didn't expect it to be totally awful- I have never been on a flight that was in so much Chaos.
There were people changing and switching seats, Screaming children on mother's knees, in front of me an Indian father with his wife, mother and sister and his 4 fat children squashed onto the 3 seats in front of me... and one of his annoying kids running up and down, up and down the seat alley way dancing, crying, screaming, tantrum-ing, singing, jumping, hitting passengers....  as if flying is not stressful enough without all that.

needless to say there were more than one or two disgruntled passengers holding their tongues for fear of "airline reprisal" and "air rage accusations"

anyway- im here, im staying with an old school friend and her boyfriend about 2 km outside of Perth City centre. Lovely apartment, and so far a good time.

This morning we went to Trigg Beach which was windy and chilly to watch my friend surf- and have a beach walk... I decided against surfing as it was cold... and would have been very cold if I’d have gone in the water!!

Lunch was an amazing prawn burger and chips with chicken salt and vinegar- splendid.

Then off to Cavesham Wildlife Park where I basically spent the afternoon scared of Kangaroos- incase they kicked me in the arse, and hanging out with the coca-Koala’s (!!!)

A quick tour of the wineries and back to the house…. Tipsy and with lots of lovely wine to take home…

Tonight, let there be drink, party and music...
