VERY SORRY WE HAVEN'T WRITTEN IN A WHILE BEEN TO EXPENCIVE TO GO ON THE NET AND WE HAVEN'T HAD TIME...SORRY.

Tuesday 7th AugustWe arrived in Bath and LOVED IT!
The rolling green hills in the background and the clean air were enough to sell us. We went on a Double Decker RED bus around the town and up in the skyline where the university is. We could see down into the city and the view was amazing! We then had a look around for accommodation and it's about as expensive as
London so we are hoping to maybe live in Bristle which is near Bath.

We then went for another walk around and found this Aussie couple that was having problems with their map. So we took them to our hostel because we already knew the way and we know how hard it is to get around a
new city.
We ended up going to the pub and meeting up with them and another Aussie called Jessie who was a musician and has been traveling around
UK for a year. Jessie then got up to sing a few tunes, one of which was: 'We come from a land down under' and all of us were singing at the top of our lungs! Good times!

Wednesday 8th AugustWe woke up and Candice was a little hung over due to having pints instead of pots. So four pints is equivalent to 8 pots of beer.

We then made our way to the park and made our own turkey and cheese sandwich. We bought the ingredients the cheap way, from the supermarket.
After that we made our way to the Roman Baths.  
There is this area that was excavated years ago and they found these roman baths, were locals to the area and the rich used to come and bath in them. The water in the baths is bubbled up from bellow the surface and comes out at 42degrees. It's quite a sight to see and amazing how intact everything is.

We then went to the bus station to book our ticket back to
London.

Hi Guys!!
Great to hear from you... FINALLY!!!! We have been so anxious to get the latest from your travels. Kristin gave me a scare the other day saying that there was an earthquake at one of the places you were ment to be visiting. But like they say, no news is good news, so we just prayed that you were ok.

Sounds like the trip is going really well. Things are starting to wrap up here. I leave on the 31st to head to Milton for 5 months and then off to one of our new jobs (Lake Vermont in Dysart) as Lead Document Controller!!! I will be the only Doc Controll on the job, so I am looking forward to the challenge.

So much to talk bout. Will send you an email soon to fill you in!!

Missing you guys HEAPS!! Keep it real k!!
Luv Brooke xoxoxoxo

Hello!!!
You guys are having such an amazing time over there. I'm so happy for you. I was a little worried when you hadn't written in for a while but there are so many things to see and do, I dont blame you. We're going on our own little adventure/holiday/birthday party in a few weeks ... Hamilton Island here we come.

Wow like Brooke said so much has happened over the last 4 or so months. But the most important thing is for me i'm out of here (we'll try again)on the 20th of September - YEY!!! I can't wait for a mini holiday.

Anyway chicken's I shall talk to you later on. Keep smiling and have fun.

Love always Kristin!
