We have arrived in Brisbane
Hi All.
Well we are here at long last, arrived yesterday morning after a 24hr delay in Dubai due to bad fog but Emirates put us up in a lovely hotel for the night so not to bad.
Yesterday early evening we went for a drive up Mooloolaba and on the way home a wicked storm got us i tell you we've never seen rain and lightning like that before really scarey.
Will give you all a better update when we've got over the jet lag a bit more.

I'm sure before long you'll be doing what everyone else seems to do - grabbing a
, sitting back and enjoying the light show

Re: We have arrived in Brisbane
Hiya Paula, I have tried texting you on your uk mobile number but I don't think you are receiving them. Hows things going? Have you managed to chill and recouperate a little yet? Or are you still mooching around? Ange was asking for your number so I told her you had phone probs & that Id give her your number as soon as I had it. If you need a hand with absolutely anything, just give me a shout. Take care hope to see you again soon x
