Default Flights booked, we leave on Wednesday !!!

Not for Australia, yet, but for two weeks well deserved rest in Kos. Can't wait! Trying to hold on to a bit of summer and also going to take my PADI open water diving course.

Booked it all inclusive, all the ice cream the kids can eat all day. Sounds like a challenge to me!

Anybody else having a late holiday this year?

Steve.

Steve,
tried to book a late deal the other day, but they insisted that it would cost my wife 50 dollars / day for a visa & I couldn't find one that would have me back in time.

Who knows in a couple of weeks we might book something.

Have a nice holiday.

Bye
Markeh

Have a great time Steve. The weather is pretty good at the moment although we are on the same coastline as Kos they are a bit further up so it will be slightly cooler. Make sure you take some cardies etc for the evenings though.

Have a great time.

You had me going there Steve!! I wondered how you had it all sorted so soon

We are going away before we get to Aus- spending 2 weeks in the States and going on a longed for Carribean cruise. I am almost looking forward to that more than arriving in Aus!

Hi Steve & Eve,

Have a wonderful holiday, it might just take your mind off this waiting!

Enjoy the sun and the diving course. Just think you can make good use of that in the great barrier reef! Something else to look forward to!

Speak to you when you get back.

Hazel & Wayne.
