As you are reading this, Mr John and I are on our way to Australia for a three week holiday. Yesterday we headed to Bangkok and are staying at the Pullman Hotel. Apart from the fact we really like it here, by staying on the Executive Floor, we get access to the Pullman Lounge at Bangkok airport. This should give us some calm before the joy of flying economy to Sydney.
It's been a long term - five months to be exact - and Mr John is desperate for a break. We will be visiting family and friends, some of whom we haven't seen for three years, and we can't wait to see everyone. We also get to be the first overseas visitors for cousin Sam, Andy and their son Drew who emigrated to Australia at the end of March.
Whilst we've been counting sleeps until we leave, Mr John has been fantasising over food - some things which you can only get in Australia like Dim Sims and Big M (a brand that does flavoured milk) along with beers such as Coopers sparkling, James Squires and of course the wine! He's also looking forward to great lumps of meat and lucky for us we have some extremely good cooks in the family so keeping fingers crossed for lots of barbeque's and pizza as well.
I will do my best to keep you all up to date with what's going on but can't promise the frequency of my posts. I'm sure you'll all understand. So if you've not signed up for email delivery, keep your eye out for our adventures down under!
And a Happy Birthday to my brother Pete for yesterday
