The Cunning Plan

THE CUNNING PLAN A: buy another car

THE CUNNING PLAN B: do the road trip on foot, bike, train, bus...

THE CUNNING PLAN C: go for a few weeks working or serving holiday somewhere south (because I need sun and hot weather)

cpA failed.
cpB wasn't very appealing to us.
We were working on cpC when Daniel suggested we go to Australia.

First I didn't like the idea because I still need to do my chemistry exam in August but decided that meeting Daniel's family is more important.

After two days of thinking about it I applied for VISA. That was on Saturday 27th June. I got it on Monday 29th when we also bought the flight tickets.

One Tuesday 30th we both left for the Junior Youth Camp in Smolenice where we served as facilitators and had a lot of fun. Returned on Sunday, most of the facilitators stayed at my place for the evening, we cooked dinner, had a great time, I passed my driving test the next morning. In the evening we went to Stupava to a good-bye party of our dear and very close friends Kathy and Lara. (Daniel slept through half of it.) On Tuesday we packed and on Wednesday flied out.

Flight information:

Flying out > 8th July Vienna to London Heathrow
> London Heathrow to Sydney via Bangkok, arrival 6am 10th July
Flying in < 24th August Sydney to London Heathrow
< London Heathrow to Vienna arrival 25th August

We are returning on 25th August which means I still have time to pass my chem exam on the 27th. Yay!

We sold our Cat Empire tickets (buhuuuu) in less than one day - that's how people love the band!

We spent the first night at Daniel's grandparents' house in Sydney and are about to go to Kandos today.

We'll try to keep you updated.
