Feb 10, 2009 - Flew to Perth, Camped out again (not in THAT way)
Yeah this morning was fun!!!! Em woke me up at 6am to get me to change the flight as she was being sick! She now thinks her Margarita pizza she had in the Lucky Cock may have been the cause - yeah ok!!! Anyway so I had the joy of getting up, finding a 24 hour shop to get some change in, so I could then phone Qantas to change our flight. Luckily Qantas let us off the re-re-booking fees as well - Double result! - so it was all good! We went over the PJ O'Brians where Nat was hard at work and said our goodbyes to her and then caught our flight over to Perth. ... We went down the road and had some fish 'n' chips and then had quite and early night as we were badgered! We've only got one day in Perth so we're gonna try and get up early tomorrow. ...
