Perth what a lovely place and lovely people

Well our journey continued on from a very cold and windy London onto Perth via Singapore. I honestly think that we have never spent so little time in one country before. We arrived forty minutes late as we set off one and a half hours late from Heathrow due to the plane freezing!!! We literally walked off one plane and onto the other one and travelled the four hours arriving in Perth at 1am. We were staying with the Jarvis' who were amazing and very hospitable hosts. We had an amazing time with the TOM guys in Perth, and again realised we are so part of the right family of missionaries. Malcolm Potts the leader of TOM Perth said 'isn't this great we hardly know you guys yet we are talking like old friends'.

Perth is so beautiful as well. A few photos just to prove it. I (Mark) was in charge of the camera and I forgot to take photos of all the people. Sorry if you're not on there!! Daniel, Jude, Joel and Anna on the beautiful Cottosloe beach in Perth.

I love the sand and so many nutrients!

Malcolm and Cheryl, leaders of TOM Perth. (awesome couple, so wise and so much authority, and the humility that they don't realise it).

Good old Aussie stubbie!

We really took these photos. We are so blessed.

Update on the missing Burgess Family not in Peru at the moment

Firstly apologies for the delay since our last posting, we have been in more than 10 cities and 3 countries since our last post, although Singapore doesn't really count as we walked off a plane from London and walked onto another bound for Perth.

We were in England for 6 weeks and it was an amazingly busy, fruitful, freezing, rewarding, informative, relaxing and did I say freezing time.
We spent time with friends in Sheffield at our home church after Christmas with my (Mark) family in Newcastle. We then spent a relaxed week in Center Parcs and finished our time with the UK in a week down south. This involved 5 different beds in 5 nights, in 5 different cities, at one point!
Above are a few highlights of our time.
