Europe Week 1

Dear all,

Hello from Bath (England)!



First off.. apologies to those who arent are family and who dont care about massive ramblings.


This will be just a brief summary of our past week in England and a few photos to brighten it up a little bit.

Well first off, we left at a rediculous hour from adelaide (thankyou friends and family for making it down to farewell us anyway!). We then flew to Sydney and spent half a day sitting in the airport drinking coffee and eating which wasnt too bad!



Then we had a flight to Bangkok -- also not too bad. Unfortunately the stop over was only a very brief 30 minutes so we werent able to see the lovely airport in as much detail as we would have liked. BUT THENNN.. Once on the plain all set to take off to London on time.. some valve was faulty in the plane and needed replacing.. 3 times or something. But long story short.. We sat on a plane, for 4 HOURS IN DISGUSTING HEAT WITH LITTLE TO NO WATER OR AIRCONDITIONING. yeah, it was aweful.. essentially, we have learnt; do not fly british airways.. ever. Theyre aweful in every single way possible. In no way are we annoyed that the plane needed something replaced ; this is understandable, and we are very thankful that they take the safety warnings from the engine seriously.. but just their service and treatment of passengers in this time was disgusting.


Ok.. well after that stressful time, we landed safe and sound in Heathrow and were greeted by Hannah's Aunty Sue who took us back to her lovely home in Bath.


And for the past 5 days we have been exploring the streets and shops !


















the streets of Bath are so breathtakingly beautiful! It feels as though we have stepped straight onto a movie set.. and the only things missing are the corsets and lovely romantic men to sweep us off our feet? haha.





















we actually had some time to have the traditional Cream Tea - scones with jam & cream :) we also saw the fashion museum (AMAZING :) -- for us anyway!) and the Roman Bath's! OH and we have been doing a lot of shopping! Topshop IS amazing.. and we have made some purchases........... and some 'maybe i'll get this later' thoughts.

AND. WE GOT TO TRY ON CORSETS IN THE FASHION MUSEUM. which -
i (sophie) am not ashamed to say.. has probably been my highlight! :) how Keira Knightley!

anyway; we off on a Topdeck tour of the many countries of Europe! beginning in the wonderful France! :)

so; sorry for the dis-jointed post! we are trying to upload photos.. and pack.. and a do a numerous amount of other things!

hope everyone is having a wonderful week..



looooooove Sophie & Hannah xo!

just quickly!

Well hey theree :)

Ok,, so soph and I leave in approximately 36 hours!! (currently 1:43am) .. yes i know, its late.

And no, we are not organised in the slightest. havent even put a single item of clothing in my bag or anything. Friends and family of mine are probably muttering 'typical Hannah' or something under their breath.

But I just thought id just post a quick map of where we are going. Most of these destinations are on our tour but some we are visiting on our own. Anyway.. yeah those massive red dots .. thats where we are heading.

You should be able to click on it to get a better view if its small.

Yeah, i know, i could have done a better job than that, but you get the general gist anyway.

Anyway i need to go to bed. Soph and I plus our significant others are meeting for bruch tomorrow.

And then im apparently playing golf.. we'll see how that goes haha

Big love!! Our next post will probably be somewhere in Europe!!

xxxx take care everyone! xxxx

Zoo

"The lions and tigers and that kind of stuff

They have up here now are not quite good enough.

You see things like these in just any old zoo.

They're awfully old-fashioned. I want something new."

Congratulations to Hannah's netball team - winning the grandfinal today :)

and in 7 days - we'll be on a plane to London.!

Love Sophie xo!

Your hands and your heart are my home.

A little late i know, but these are some photos of us from the weekend. We were attending michael's 21st.. hes the brother of dan (sophs boyfriend) and a bestfriend of Jared (Hannahs boyfriend).. small world isnt it!

But yes, thought we should feature our beloved boyfriends, as we will be leaving them alone to run riot in Australia while we head off for jam and scones in Europe.

Sophie and Daniel!! (Soph in her new bargain Valleygirl dress!!)

Soph Hannah and Jared.

OH ANDDD,, if youre wondering whats on my (Hannah's) forhead.. its medical tape.. I had a cyst removed (dont worry, i got the results back, and it wasnt anything bad).. so yeah, its covering stitches.

So yes, I hope everyone has had a wonderful week so far :)
