Got married when we lived in Wellington, NZ so next years trip will include, Singapore, Brisbane, Wellington, Wanaka, Sydney before coming back to stay with family in Perth.

Yes you are definitely right about airfare ticket price increases cost twice as much as last time and have to say penny pinching with the food and drinks as well.
Hope you have a terrific time Yarm.

Are you staying at a hotel in Perth or more of a “home” type of base?

I’d be interested if you have ideas for areas around Perth to visit or stay?

I fancy trying Cottisloe for a few nights in January 24.

I hope you update us regularly on your trip this time around?

By the way, I don’t know if you’ve watched Perth Glory FC yet, I went to a home game and very much enjoyed their lovely ground and chatting with ex pat’s who support Glory?
