W's brother D & J plus neices B & L arrived early (very early) on Sunday Morning.

The rain started not long after they landeded, and hasn't stopped since!

It took over 2 1/2 hours for them to get through Perth Customs - the worse experience of the whole trip. W and I have always said Perth Airport customs is the worst we've ever come across. The problem isn't the security, it's the lack of working staff, and general lack of coordination. For example, on arrival everyone gets filtered into a big 'blob' all pushing and shoving to enter the start of the 'real' que. So for around an hour everyones competing, just to get into the que for customs. Why the airport dont just run a few hundred more meters of zig-zag rope to extend the que is anyones guess.

Enough whinging...

despite the weather they are having a good time so far (I think anyway). We've bought the kids a Wii - if you've not seen one, it's a TV game with a really neat control which detects motion to allow it to feal like a racket when playing tennis, or a club for golf. You swing it, and your motions are duplicated in the game on the TV - great fun!

W and I are off for 2 weeks on Friday (woo hoo) - oh, apart from me working Sunday - doh.

More later.
