Adelaide Blog Sarah, I've just read your Adelaide Blog (got a late pickup today!) and I recognise virtually every place you have been to! We have family in Adelaide and have been there about 3 or 4 times. We haven't been since Evie was a toddler so we are over due a trip. Hope you are having a fantatic time and look forward to hearing all about it when you get home. Keep safe and take care. Val xx
Good memories So funny to be reading all this now we are back on Koh samui!
Thanks for all the running around.
It's not the same without you two and Jolly! Xx
Great stuff! Hi Sarah,
Thanks for updating! Glad you made it to Hong Kong - sounds a lot like Singapore: I'll wait until your next post to see if you agree :)
Is it just me, or have you managed to eat at McDonalds in every place you've stopped? ;)
If the one in Bali is anything like the one in Batam, you'll not be going there more than once lol.
China sounds so charming! Hi Sarah,
Keep the blog entries coming; they're great! I had a good chuckle at your Beijing entry, especially the bit about the tourist trying to push you out of the way. I really want to see that photo! I could also really clearly imagine your suffering in the train cabin with the mother and child - there's nout stranger than folk eh! But it sounds like you are managing to follow up each bad sleeping situation with a good one. Fingers crossed for your next destination!
This made me laugh Oh dear Sarah, they are right dirty gits aren't they! We were very lucky going by your blog, when we had to share they were very civilised, Had a bit of a fright when we first got to our 4 berth cabin and there were already 3 adults in there sitting on our beds eating their bleeding noodles!! They offered us to sit down with them, nice of them! Once the train started moving one buggered off, the other 2 went to their top bunks and we never heard from them for the whole journey. Your blog did bring back memories and make me laugh though.
All good fun Isn't the traffic fun in Beijing!! My mum used to wait for the lights to change so we could cross the road and she thought the cars would stop, yeah right!! You had to take your life in your hands there, she used to thump or kick the cars if they didn't stop, she was more of a nightmare than the traffic. It's bloody cold too there this time of year, oops, sorry, didn't we tell you, ha ha. xxxxx
Sarah and Chantelle, have a wonderful, safe, fun trip...looking forward to hearing all the adventures! Two of the luckiest ladies I know....God Bless XO

its come around so quickly doesn't seem long ago you were thinking of going.. and does it mean i have to download skype now, also look out for my really long emails ..

I'm Sarah, aged 27 and in October am off travelling with my partner Chantelle. We are heading to Japan, China, Thailand, Singapore, Bali, Australia, New Zealand, Fiji and Los Angeles. We plan to be back around the beginning of June 2013. Really excited about our trip to take us to all these previously unvisited countries!
