Brock and Dad on Tour
I now understand why that old people's holiday company is called 'Saga', because taking 'older people' on holiday is exactly that!
We have had a really lovely time, and although poor Si wants to pull his hair out (poor thing), Brock and Dad are having a whale of a time. Brock feels that she is a true back packer, although she some how managed to bring 22.5kg of stuff with her (and swears that she has packed light!). More weight than mine and Si's backpacks weigh in total!!
The Robbins's have now descended on Paula at Sydney. Paula who usually looks after her 2 children, has now been made responsible for 4 kids, who continued to get lost, and confused about most things.
Paula and Rob have been fantastic hosts, and the children have been great. We are all had a brilliant time and Brock has been keeping her Journal so she remembers where she has been.
After a whistle stop tour of Sydney, a fantastic harbour cruise, a tour of the blue mountains and
MANY beery nights, the time has come for Brock and Dad to head home. Both looking a little more tanned, and have now accumilated 50 kg of luggage.
Welshpool has been warned!!

Hey there,
Well they finally bloody left!!
I tried to board the house up but the Robbins family still managed to get in.
The trip into the city was an interesting one, after explaining how the trains worked and what lines they had too take several times they all finally managed a trip into the city via train on there own, got a text to say they got there fine so knew they hadn't ended up in Perth!!
Had a lovely Harbour Cruise as Clare said, but did you know the Opera House is 3 buildings and not 1, this really amazed Aunty Brock, which we were told several times, (you still owe me a few dollars for that Clare)!!
We have had a wonderful time with them all, having a few beers and poor Clare got the flu a couple of times!! We will miss them dearly, haven't laughed so much in ages, it has been great.
All I can say is look out Welshpool couldnt hold her back anymore, Aunty Brock is on her way home.
Paula
xxxxxxxxxx
P.S. See you when you get back to Sydney in May Clare & Si
Si, I think you'll find 'SAGA' actually stands for 'Sex And Games for the Aged' you'd be amazed what happens on those cruise ships!
