Tennis

Yay, we got home in time to watch the Australian open on TV. Love watching the tennis. Two years ago we went to see it as we were in Melbourne on our round Australia trip and then last year, we went to see the Hopman Cup in Perth. I have been to the Aussie open a couple of times before when we lived in Melbourne and a couple of times since but Hopman Cup had been on my bucket list for quite awhile.

Anyway it is tennis time of the year and it has been especially nice that we could vege out and watch it the last few days and get used to the heat. Our Aussie contentions are all out now but we did get to see a couple of them.

Davis Cup is being played next weekend in Brisbane and we were lucky enough to get two of the last tickets available. Really would have liked to get tickets for the Friday but while they had about six tickets lefts, they were not together and so we went for Saturday which will be the doubles match. Its in the afternoon so a nice relaxing train trip and I dare say we will be up in the "nose bleed" seats at least we will be out of the sun, got to look at the positives.

Roger plays the young Korean guy tonight and although he has done very well, I cant see him beating Roger. I am expecting it will be Cilic and Roger in the final of the AO Sunday night.
