London Again

Mehdi and I have been back to London and back to Harrods.
We just cant keep away from the food hall! Plus we wanted to see all the christmas decorations, which were beautiful...

We went with two other crew, Gilli (from NZ, left) and Lorena (from Argentina, right).


Mehdi and I are flying together again this month. Our other layovers are Singapore, Brisbane and Tunis. We're really looking forward to it! Mehdi's Mum and Cyrinne are coming for Christmas, so we will be lucky enough to see some of our family for the holiday season!

Sapin Noel

Well, it's that time of year again! Yay!
We're getting right into the festive spirit.... Here is a pic of our very pretty Christmas tree


Its a huge 180cm and cost 199dhms (70aud) from the supermarket. That price includes decorations!

Back in DXB

When we landed at about 6am on the 27th of Nov. The captain made a PA announcing that it would be 21Degrees outside. We thought that he had made a mistake and it was actually 31 (It hadn't fallen below 30 for the last 6 months). But to our utter shock, it was coolish outside! Even more earth shattering, latter on that afternoon it RAINED!!! and continued to do so (on and off) for the next 5 days.

Mehdi and I have been back from our leave for about two weeks now. We got straight back into it, doing five flights in that time (including two UK layovers). Sorry Pip, no matter how hard I tried, I couldnt sell my Birmingham and Kuwait to any of the grade two's on the Perth... :( I wish SO much that I could have been there! I hope all of your Birthday wishes came true!

Back in Town

While back in Ausralia we;

-Ate everything in site
-Caught up with almost everybody
-Got a tan
-Ate some more
-Went to J&A's house warming party
-Slept at home (in our comfy little room)
-Sat around the pool
-Rode the Jetski
-Sold the Jetski :( Bye Bye Jetski....
-Hung out at home with Mum, Dad and Hobbs


Bye Bye Jetski...

We ate everything in site... (the ribs not the Kamado. BTW: Thanks Dad!)


Got a tan... (Mehdi, Mum, Jess and I went to Byron for the Day)

And before we knew it, our two weeks were over and we were on the plane heading back to DXB.

Catching Up!


On the 9th of Nov, Mehdi and I flew back in to Dubai (DXB) from Dussledorf. We had a great (but short) time in Belgium.
On the 10th we were back on the plane heading to Brisbane. We arrived in Brisbane on the 11th. Jessie and Ayden came to pick us up and we got to meet Ayden for the first time! Yay! We went straight back to Jessie and Ayden snazzy new joint to join the four day fiesta that had been going on since Amanda and Ryan were down from Cairns. Ayden cooked us a customary Aussie BBQ breaky and we were back into the swing of things down under!
We had a quiet coldie with the gang at J&A's and decided that the beach was calling. So we headed straight to the surf! So began our two golden weeks in Aus!
