Hello from Australia
03.02.2007
Hey hey,
So I figured it was about time I added something here so you all know it's not just Aaron down here but me as well. I'm gonna make it short and sweet though, I swear I just found a piece of random bodily hair from down under on this key board ... and by down under I don't mean Australia. So it's officially been a week since we left the cold, and I have to say that part of leaving was easy. The long flights and even longer layover in LA were brutal though, I can safely say no one can ever beat Aaron and I at crazy 8 countdown again though. Not only did we play it at every airport and on every plane, but also roughly 4 times a day, everyday in Fiji... in between beach walks, swims in oceans as warm and bath water, swings on hammocks and bus rides to tiny little villages... oh and crosswords, lots and lots of crosswords. Zatz, I might even be able to do a crossword faster than you now.
We definitely met a few cool people, mostly people from the UK and all headed to New Zealand. In total we spoke to 4 Canadians, including this random crazy chick we met at the airport today who was born in Fiji, lived in BC and then married a guy from New Zealand. Really, she was nuts.
Anyway, so now were in Sydney and so happy to be staying in a hotel. Not that the hostels weren't great but just to know we have a space to ourselves for a couple nights is great. I miss home a little bit every day ... but not enough to not want to be here. Seriously ... it's warm here and cold there, enough said. Really though, I wish you could all be here as well. If there really are all those snakes and poisonous things here Sunny I'm sure I'll trip and fall on half of them so I'll let you know 
. Oh and Happy Birthday ... Aaron thinks you'd love Fiji because it's yellow fever central.
Maurizz ... keep checking this like Facebook, really I know that if I can count on one thing each day it's knowing that at some point you've checked to see if we've posted something new. Zatz, I'm wearing my sunscreen and reapplying like no other.
Anyway ... pictures will come soon, promise. And if by any chance you guys feel like calling across the world to speak to us our number here is 044-860-4505 . There's a country code you have to put in from of that but I don't know what it is. Email is probably easier anyway, and 10 times cheaper/free .
Love you all,
jessi

Hi Sunshine & Aaron
Granddad and I were so happy to know you were in Australia, and there is a number we can call you at. Granddad says he is glad you are honing your card skills; I think he feels he will finally get Aaron to play cards with him, ha ha. Amway were so glad to here your there make sure you wear your hat Sunshine, with lots of sunscreen, also be careful if you go to the beech, we just watched the news and they said a shark just attacked a surfer in Sydney Australia, fortunately with the help of some friends he got away with bites on his foot & leg. Take good care of yourselves and be carful.
Love you &miss you both Nana & Granddad xoxoxox
