Snow!
Today is my last day at home and it is snowing! I think its a nice send-off before summer starts in a few days... My travel time will take two (ish) days and approximately 19 of those hours will be spent in the air. AAAAHHH!
Have a great time and here are those words in Australian I told you about Let's see if they are correct. Don't end up the gumtree!!
