I don't know what's happened to us, but we got up really late again this morning. Nikki woke me up at just after 10.30am, and by the time we'd got ready, had breakfast and were ready to leave, it was almost 12pm! Just as we were leaving, we received some good news from home - Scottish Col' and Katie have had their baby - a little boy called William, who is going to grow up to play for both Bristol City and ENGLAND!We had a look around the shops in town, still trying hard to spend our Christmas money, and once we'd completed some secret missions, we sat on a bench in the centre and ate a little picnic Nikki had made us. It was nice, just sitting there - watching the world pass by. I don't know how we're ever gonna get motivated to work again!?
This afternoon, we went to the Perth Museum, which was very impressive! We looked at all the usual exhibits including the animals, dinosaurs and Australian history, when we came across a really sad exhibition called 'The Stolen Children'. It was about loads of Aboriginal children, which were taken away from their families, so that they could live as 'white' people. Some of them were really young and never got to see their parents again - it was all very sad, and something I think some Australians are quite embarrassed about.
For our tea this evening, Nikki cooked us a lush prawn and mushroom curry. I thought it was spanking gorgeous, but Nikki didn't enjoy it as much - I think she was too hot from the cooking. Afterwards, we went outside to ring Emma and find out how life is back in the Northern Hemisphere. It did make us chuckle when she told us it was 2° when she landed in London - it must've been at least 30° when she took off from Perth, ha ha.
Congratulations to Scottish and Katie... Hello William!
