We arrived in Coral Bay for Laura's birthday (Sun 16th) - went on a boat to see reef sharks, manta rays, humpback whales, turtles and dugongs. snorkelled with lots of fishes. nearly wet my pants when a reef shark swam past me - all i could think about was that i had cut my toe and sharks smell blood a mile off! Took Laura out for a lovely meal for her b'day. had gorgeous seafood and steak (half a cow morelike!) with a bottle of fizz and then a few drinks in the local bar (the only one!!) and a few [View Full Entry]

Travelled from Perth to Coral Bay in week 1 of bond girls on tour. Had our first camping experience...well done me as i'm used to far more luxuries - like running water!! Stayed in a small town called Lancelin and met a banana farmer called Fred and had a few beers with him. not much in the town so just moved on. unfortunately we missed the world cup final - ridiculous considering the number of nights i stayed up til 3am to watch the other games in asia and perth. Checked out the Pinnacles at Cervantes which was good but not [View Full Entry]

003..

Also known as 003 and together with secret agent 004 we will travel up the west coast in our Campervan - 007. he he he - loving our new campervan which we just picked up. Laura and i had speculated which design we may get - we had suspected we would get the van sprayed like a fresian cow (which i would have called Mooriel) but when we got to the depot we were in deep shock as the only van outside had a huge picture and the words Jesus Christ and "Honk if you love Jesus" on the boot!! After [View Full Entry]

G'day mates! Been in Perth a week now and although i like it - it is winter here so a big difference n temperature from Asia. staying at the underground backpackers hostel which is great. So many irish backpackers combined with the weather makes me think i may not actually be in Australia after all! Got a great new room-mate called Heather who's a fab laugh and likes red wine just about as much as Laura and I. Perth is much smaller than i thought it would be - had a nice day at the beautiful Kings Park and saw the [View Full Entry]

back in singapore again for 2 days before leaving for australia. this is where i started my round the world adventure 6 weeks ago and it's fun to be back. had a lovely meal at a converted church and then the traditional singapore sling cocktail in Raffles Hotel. It is expensive ($20 which is about 8 pound) but felt it had to be done, aswell as eating peanuts and throwing the shells on the floor (as well as down Mel's top and on Charlotte & Laura - they got me back later tho!) we did trek down to the Quay and [View Full Entry]

i've arrived in cameron highlands of malaysia and i feel like i'm back home in scotland - it's very green, lots of hills and it is cold and raining! in fact scotland is probably having much better weather than here right now. as always happens when i return from holiday i even got a cold! instead of doing the jungle trekking or visiting the butterfly farm etc i lay on the sofa or our swanky apartment and watched a Bruce Willis dvd with Jang, our tour leader. tonight all of the 26 tour members crowded into our swanky living room with [View Full Entry]

greetings from Kuala Lumpur after the cold of cameron highlands it is nice to be in the warmth again and KL is hot - about 30degrees. it is very modern and plenty of shopping malls again plus a cool night market selling copy clothes etc and nice chinatown. had a few drinks and watched the footie in the Regage Bar last night. not much Raggae music played though and Adam beat me at pool twice! today we went up the Petronas twin Towers. the skybridge is on the 41st floor so got a great view of all KL. This was where [View Full Entry]

Penang Asia » Malaysia » Penang » George Town
greetings from country number 5 on my south east asia tour. i really like Penang - it's very modern and westernised with skyscrapers and large shopping malls. After over 5 weeks of visiting temples and many other cultural activities i decided to give the colonial buildings and tourist attractions a miss. Instead i had a long lie (never slept past 8am until today and plenty of 5am starts), updated my journal, shopped and sat in starbucks drinking a mocha frapucchino with my book. was lovely just to chill out. tonight we had a lovely dinner (nuala had a very funny dish [View Full Entry]

Hi All i had meant to write a blog all about how fantastic the half moon party was and have loads of crazy photos of us with buckets of cocktails and fluorescent tattoos but unfortunately all of the photos were lost on Nuala's camera. So...you will just have to imagine how silly we were all looking as we danced at a trance party in the middle of the jungle! we had started in the flip flop bar (my fave on the island) then headed to jungle bar before getting a pick up truck to the party. none of us are really [View Full Entry]
