Well technically we are in Moranbah (or as my bro calls it Butt Fcuk Junction) Queensland, but due to a lack of reliable Internet access in Africa we were unable to keep the travel blog going. So instead here is the lowdown of our African adventure....and what an adventure it was! Tanzania It all kicked off with a very dodgy taxi from the airport in Dar Es Salaam. The windscreen was taped on and the wheels must have been bald as everytime we braked or rounded a corner the squealing noise and fishtailing was very scary. Alysha's introduction to Africa was [View Full Entry]

Hallo china plates After a plane ride listening to a husky Australian girl telling of her escapades at beerfest, we made it back to London town. To our surprise we were met by a friendly customs officer and we were able to pick up our luggage with ease - typical that it takes our last entrance into the Uk to have a good experience. The sun was out on our journey back to Bath and I have to admit it felt like we were arriving back home. We arrived at our residence for the next 10 days; an apartment that Kibby's [View Full Entry]

Guten tag fella and fellaesses Sausages, pork knuckles, pretzels, chocolate and beer...these are a few of our favourite things, which is lucky as they were a part of our daily life here in Germany. With a week full of visiting, sightseeing, eating and shopping you would have thought that we would have been too tired to have enjoyed a typical german birthday party, but as usual we gave it a shot. I made my first ever (unaided) pav, (as yet no one has become ill so in my book that is a success) Kibby ate more than his body weight in [View Full Entry]

Guten tag Neuseeland und dem Vereinigten Königreich We have arrived in Ingolstadt, Germany where we are staying with Manfred and Vanessa for the week leading up to beerfest - in Munich on Saturday! We have not made an entry on our travel blog since Croatia and have done quite a bit since then so here is the low down. Firstly I would like to say that the Croatians are very clean people who obviously have heard of and use deodourant regularly...bless! We left Hvar with fingers crossed that we would be able to take a connecting bus to Mostar, Bosnia and [View Full Entry]

Hello friends, whanau and any geezers reading our blogs Firstly I would like to give a brief explanation of one of the terms that we have coined since the beginning of our travels. 'Smelly dude' - this refers to a person who has very poor personal hygiene and generally needs to take a bath and apply deodourant. Kibby and I took an overnight train from Thessaloniki to Belgrade and we booked beds as we left at 4pm and were scheduled to arrive at 5am. We found our room only to realise that we were also sharing with 'smelly dude' from France. [View Full Entry]

Howdy Folks Today is our last day in Greece so thought we should give you the low down on what we have been up to. We had a great ferry crossing from Ancona, Italy to Patras, Greece. The seas were really calm (nothing like the Cook Strait) and we sat in the afternoon sun drinking beer, writing postcards and playing cards. Very relaxing and a nice change from the hustle and bustle of Roma. Had a bit of a mission trying to find some accommodation for the night in Patras and found that door knocking works really well (i.e. you dont [View Full Entry]

Hey Gang It has been a while since our last entry so thought we better take some time out from our busy schedule to give you all an update. We have now reached Greece, but have not made mention of Italy so will do that now! Actually we will start back in France and Nice where we stayed for one night after Avignon. Nice? Um, not how I would describe it at all. We arrived and on route to our accommodation we witnessed a small drug deal take place...that's fine by me, still not the best first impression but after seeing [View Full Entry]

Bonjour tout le monde Kibby and I have just made it through our 4th day in France and I have to say we are doing quite well - I can't believe how much of my 6th form French lessons I can remember - see Mum my school trip to Noumea was worth it. In Montpellier we found a sweet little cafe with seating outside on the street and managed to order crépes. There was a little plate envy going on but Kibby did admit that it was the best crépe he had ever had, which I found funny considering he has [View Full Entry]

Hey Gang We arrived here in BCN on Monday morning for what was suppose to be a two day visit before heading east towards the south of France. We decided to extend our visit by one day to get a bit more of the sights in and then we extended for a further two days as we could not get any accommodation in France! This made us somewhat nervous in terms of forward booking accommodation, but it seems now that it was a once off glitch due to public holidays in France, and hopefully things will be a bit smoother from [View Full Entry]
