okay ive been slack

to all my avid readers i finally have a new installment. im down in morocco at a place called tangier. its up in the north of the country if u r scrambling for an atlas. its so different to europe, but i love it! it reminds me of egypt, but without the bus loads of tourists. our accomdation is cheap, translation_maybe not to the standard of australia. it took me about 10 mins to flush the toilet before. the ppl seem nice, im travelling with a girl from uni sarah. so it will be interesting to see if she still likes it here when we leave. so dont il recap my trip since san diego.

flew to washington, which i once again loved as i dont follow politics a little and loved going to the white house and to capital hill. from there to boston where i met my 2nd cousin katherine for a wk which was great. she lives in a place called newport, we went to providence and down to new york as well. NY blew my mind its just so overwhelming and its really hard to comprehend just how big the place is. Time square was probably the highlight there.

so then flew from NY to London and then on the same day took the eurostar to paris to meet sarah. this seemed like a good idea, but it ended up being about 30 odd hours travel or something stupid like that. lets just say i was tired!!

so paris was just as good as i remebered and once again loved the city. so we then caught the train down to lisbon in portugul. Now this was an amazing city so beautiful. Matbe my favourite ever (a big call). Its set by the river and has alot of hills in the background, the streets are narrow and its basically a walking city in the old part. the architecture is also just amazing. so i loved it there

so then we had the horrid travel days to cqtch the train fro, lisbon to madrid then down to algeciars (where i slept lqst nite) and now i sit here in tangier. im going to try and put some photos up before my money runs out (internet at home is such a luxury!).

so hope everyone is well and i will try to make more regulqr entries
