Alright guys?
Hope everyone is well! We arrived back in Sydney on Monday and have basically been taking in all the cheesy tourist sights for the last week! On monday we shipped all our excess baggage and dive stuff back to England (look out for that mum) so we are now about 20kg lighter. Also BOTH started a new dose of antibiotics. Mike has a parasite in him (mmmmm) and Ben’s ear infection doesn’t want to go away yet, so were both poppin pills at regular intervals through out the day!
Done all the regulars, visited the Opera house (again) lol, botanical gardens and Ben even managed to squeeze in a bridge climb (www.bridgeclimb.com). Mike being a tight ass refused to spend ‘too much bloody money’ so spent the day walking round the Harbour and can now tell you the price of any meal in any restaurant in Sydney!
Thursday saw us heading to the surf capital of Sydney Bondi Beach. Basically its a slightly warmer version of Newquay with a bit bigger waves. Also FULL of really hunky surfer dudes which wasnt really much good to us as Ben is not that way inclined and Mike is otherwise ingaged. 
HaHa (Mike would like to point out that the term ‘Hunkey surfer dudes’ were Ben’s words not his!)
Big thank you to Mike’s Uncle and Aunt for looking after the wounded travellers and putting us up for the week! I think if we could live in a quater of the comfort over the next few months we would be more than happy 
Take care guys, speek soon
Mike and Ben

Hi Boys,
Glad to hear your having a wicked time, though know you would. Hope you aren’t expecting 5 star accommodation any more now you have left Jim and Murial’s.
If you read this before you leave Sydney and haven’t decided what you are doing yet I strongly recommend that you book yourselves on Ivans tour. (That is if it is still running). Its a three day tour from Sydney to Byron Bay (for more info check out http://www.lee-and-lucy.com. You should be able to find out info from most of the backpacker tourist desks.
Did you do the speed boat trip round the harbour?
Hope the parasites not eating you from the inside out Mike!! Keep popping those pills.
Love n Hugs
Lucy and Lee
PS Did you make the most of the boots while you had them!!!!
