Oz2010 – Sat 2nd January
Lyn and I are going away on another ‘mini-break’ tomorrow so decided that today would be another day to relax and get ready. Besides, I could do with another day relaxation as I am having trouble getting rid of the cold I caught a few days back. Lyn is currently packing a couple of bags for the trip as I write this (she’s an absolute star and I only tend to get in the way when I ‘help’) and we did our washing this morning in readiness for adventure!
I was going to tell you all about it here, but I’ve changed my mind and decided to leave it until we get back in a few days time. 
Psst… without giving too much away, we’ve decided to enjoy some time on the beach and have booked ourselves into a rather nice beach hotel. We have no plans other than that whilst we are away. It’s going to be great. It’s also going to be very hot according to local weather reports and news (and fire is always a risk, especially bush fires, which can cause chaos and havoc – as we’ve seen over the last few days around Perth). Temperatures over 40 degrees C are expected in the coming days so we’ll be packing plenty of sun protection cream/oil and bottled water, as well as being a little extra vigilant. 
Talking of heat, it’s just gone 4:30pm here in Wanneroo and the day seems to be getting hotter. If this is anything to go by (in the mid-30’s right now) then we are in for some scorchers! 
Well, I guess it’s about time I wrapped this one up for today (along with the other entries I’m updating) as Lyn and I are off to the cinema this evening. We are off to see Avatar again… …but this time we are going to watch the 3D version! I found a local 3D cinema that is literally just down the road so decided that tonight would be the night to view it again in all it’s visual splendour. The upshot of this is that Chris and girlfriend, Zoe, were also planning on going tonight so they kindly invited us to join them. Popcorn anyone?

Agreed – Avatar was great and definitely a movie that I’ll be purchasing when it is released on DVD and/or BluRay.

I prefered the 2D version better as I felt you missed some of the lovely scenes when watching the 3D verson, but then it was very busy in the cinema and we didnt have the best seats in the house… however I was very impressed with how the looked in 3D in places.
