Here it is....the last entry from our trip back from London to Oz in March/April. Ko Samui in Thailand proved an amazing end to our travels. Tuesday 10th April On the plane to Thailand we were casually reading the local tourist magazine and discovered that we were going to be in Koh Samui for the Thai New Year - Songkran. The Songkran Festival was due to start on the 13th April and last for 3 days. The article described the celebration as a massive water fight….which had some historical significance. We were looking forward to the festivities, not knowing exactly [View Full Entry]

Here is the 2nd installment from our travels home to Australia in March/April......enjoy! Thursday 22nd March - To Pokhara There were no buses leaving the India/Nepal border for a few hours so we hired a taxi for 1800 Nepalese Rupees ($38 AU) to take us to Pokhara. This was an interesting drive to say the least. Respective parents should skip to the next paragraph! It was a butt clenching 5hr drive, twisting and turning through the narrow roads of Nepal as we dodged children, trucks and animals. When it got dark we didn’t think the headlights worked because the driver [View Full Entry]

Hi Everyone! Well it's been a while coming, but we have managed to get something written about our travels on the way home from London to Australia. We got carried away with the amount of writing, so we have split it into 3 seperate entries - 1: India 2: Nepal 3: Thailand. As usual, if you can't be bothered reading the text just skip to the photos which speak for themselves. On to India where we spent our first 10 days......... Sunday 11th March 2007 - Delhi Stacy and Erin saw us off to Heathrow in London in the afternoon of [View Full Entry]

Well its finally time to leave this dark cold place that we have called home for the last 2 years. Whilst we are looking forward to our upcoming travels, getting away from this weather, and heading back to Oz, we are experiencing a feeling of sadness and loss. There is pleanty we will miss here. Life over the past 2 years has been like a "Choose Your Own Adventure" book. But alas, it is time to turn the page and start the next chapter. We will be touching down in Brisbane on Wednesday the 18th April after 5 1/2 weeks of [View Full Entry]

Hello All, Well just when you thought it was safe we have found time to fit in one last little trip before departing London. As we have the pleasure of Stacy and Erin's company (who are 'fresh off the boat'!) we thought we would take the opportunity to explore some of Southern Ireland together as neither of us had been. Friday 23rd Feb 2007 We decided to avoid the citys and opted for more scenic and rural areas of Ireland. We flew into Shannon at 11pm which is a smaller town located towards the south-west corner of the country. After collecting [View Full Entry]

On Shrove Tuesday we - Lesley, Chris, Paul and Rach (an AXA Insurance team) entered into the "Great Pancake Race". The race was held at the Tower of London, a gorgeous backdrop for such a prestigious event.

The final was another close call but our training paid off in the end and we brought home the Bollinger!!!

Just a quick blog on what we have been up to, besides working hard, we attended the London Pillow fight. Let us explain a little......there is a club you can register with online and they organise quirky flash mob activities around the city. The day before the event they email the time, activity and place and hundreds of people turn up to join in. The activity can range from pillow fights (like this one) to dancing to dressing up as santa. The location is always central London. This one just happened to be around the corner from Rach's work in the [View Full Entry]

Dont mess with these two

Hi All Firstly - Merry Christmas to you all. I hope Santa was kind to everyone. For those of you who don't know, I (Justin) recently travelled back to Australia for my mate Stacy's wedding to his lovely girlfriend Erin. It was a bit of a wirlwind tour, with only 11 days in total in Australia of which only 4 full days were spent at home on the Gold Coast. The Bucks and Wedding were all in Sydney so most of my time was spent there. I must start by apologising if I didn't get the chance to speak to you [View Full Entry]
