Melbourne, Australia: Distance Travelled = 140,472 miles
Hello!
Whilst we were on our whirlwind tour of Australia, the Royal Wedding happened! I had to make do with the best that I had, so I'd brought with me a tea towel to hang up and then watched the proceedings on my trusty iPhone. She did look very lovely in the dress, every inch a princess!

Holbrook, Australia: Distance Travelled = 140,666 miles
Hello!
We've started our long journey back to the UK now. We started by driving from Melbourne back to Sydney. As we passed through a little town called Holbrook I noticed something that looked really strange and out of place, seeing as we were miles and miles from the sea... a submarine! I had to go and take a closer look. It was really the shell of a submarine outside the Submarine Museum - ah all makes sense.... I think! We only stopped for lunch, a long journey home from here!

Sydney, Australia: Distance Travelled = 140,922 miles
Hello!
Finally, we finished our long drive and got to the airport. Unfortunately we had a bit of a problem and mix up with our tickets and that meant we had to pay lots of extra money (which we hope to get back again!) But because I was a very polite and well behaved little bear I got upgraded to business class. I thought this was awesome - the bed was flat, I had a wonderful blanket and the seat even had vibrating controls to give my little back a massage - it was brilliant! I slept and ate very well indeed!

Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates: Distance Travelled = 148,424 miles
Hello!
Of course all good things come to an end and our time in Business Class with champagne was only for the first leg of 14 hours. Once we got to Abu Dhabi we were put straight back in economy class again, where I had to share a seat with the nyckelharpa. :/ Luckily it was only for 7 hours and we were soon back in the UK. The end of an amazing adventure!
