Hi girls we are back! Had a great time in London and will catch you all up on it in the coming days. As you can see by the time I am still a little jet lagged! Jazzy was awesome on the flight, slept most of the way and when awake was quiet and easy to entertain. We had heaps of people coming up to us after the flights commenting on how good she was. My advise to anyone traveling with a toddler, invest in an IPad. Best thing we ever did. You can purchase movies and tv shows so she sat watching the Wiggles most of the time she was awake. We also invested in a good pair of child specific earphones so they would stay on her head and they are also noise restricted so they can't turn up the sound too loud. Jazzy knows how to operate the IPad on her own which is very cute and rather scary to watch!

Glad to be home in Melbourne. I am originally from christchurch and still have a lot of family and friends there including my mum, sister and nephews, dad, step mum and half brother and sister. I am happy to report that they are all well. Although my sister did give us a fright as she was working in the city and the building she was in had all the stair wells collapse in. So she was stuck on the 15th floor with no way out. Luckily she was rescued with no injuries, but we were unable to contact her for 4 hours so didn't know how she was during that time, it was just horrible. And I felt so useless being on the other side of the world. But we are some of the lucky ones. There are so many people who has suffered so much in this tragedy. Buildings can be replaced, but people can't.

Hope you are all well, I will try and get up to speed in the next few days.
