Hello again! We guess we have to do a little check up again. We're finishing off our time here in beautiful Croatia! We took the train down from Ljubljana to Zagreb. On board, we met a nice Croatian girl named Ana who helped us a lot with the border guards and the transfers. She even helped us find out how to get from Zagreb to Split because the train was not running and bus was the only option. She said goodbye, and the five of us (we had picked up two more Americans by this time) wandered briefly around the square [View Full Entry]

Hello, So, we're in Slovenia right now. Ooooooooooooo, ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!! This is really the first part of the uncharted territory of this trip. We left Munich at the crack of dawn and hopped on the train to Slovenia. The seats were all reserved so we made good use of the available space in the luggage compartment. We hadn't left Bavaria before a random guy approached us and asked to see our passports. Now, we've heard about people stealing passports or looking for bribes, so both of us were a little worried by now. We asked why, and then he showed us his [View Full Entry]

Ja, vi are here in Munchen ja!!! We took the train from Zurich to Munich where we could be take it easy for five days. We thought we might be able to recharge the batteries a little there. Yeah, about that, no, not so much. Let's break it down to the days: Day 1: So we arrived in town, and went on a bit of an impromptu walking tour along the main pedestrianised street to Marienplatz, which is the main square. The Neu Rathaus (town hall) is there, in all its neo-gothic glory. It was next to impossible to get the [View Full Entry]

Hello all, Kif and Peter were successful with their meeting plan and met up at Platform 1 in Geneva. They went up to the Palais de Nations, the UN building in Geneva, and got a tour of the place. It´s pretty cool in their because you get to see a lot of rooms where big decisions were made throughout history. After leaving the building at 2pm, we realized that there would be no way that we could see both Lausanne and Chateau Chillon that day. So we scrapped Chateau Chillon and have saved it for another trip. We wandered around Geneva, [View Full Entry]

Hello people, it's Kristoffer here. This is my part of the France adventures. I was passed out when Peter left early for Luxembourg. I took it easy in Bruges and chilled with a fellow backpacker Molly from Guelph. We're having amazing luck with the weather still, only 1 day of rain! That good fortune continued for me in France . I took the TGV down to Lyon, through Brussels and Disney World Paris (didn't go, just the train stops) and finished in Lyon. I got in in the afternoon thanks to my late departure from Bruges. But when I met a [View Full Entry]

Hallo, We have now been to the Benelux nations (or at least Peter has, because he swung through Luxembourg). We left Cologne and took the train to Amsterdam. We couldn't stay in a hostel in town because it was a long weekend and everything was booked so we had to stay in Noordwijk, near Leiden and 45 minutes away, at a Beach Hostel. We chucked our bags at the station, and started wandering down the canals. The canals west of the Damrak (main street) have some gorgeous canal houses on them and are extremely picturesque. We walked along canals, passed the [View Full Entry]

Hello all, Sorry it's been so long, since the last update, but we have had difficulties finding computers and finding the time to get down to this. We left Katrina in Denmark on April 28, and headed south into Germany. As soon as we hit Germany, we saw hills! We hadn't seen hills since we flew out of Vancouver so it was great to see them rather than a flat expanse such as Saskatchewan. That's right, I went there! We passed through Felnsburg, which is where they built the new Vancouver ferries so that was kind of cool. We arrived in [View Full Entry]

Hello all, Another city another entry. Kif and Peter caught the train out of Copenhagen and headed to the mainland to visit their friend Katrina in Arhus. The train was delayed (so far Danish trains don't really seem to run on time), but we were only two hours late in arriving. We got to Katrina's place, and partied up with her korridor mates whilst enjoying some Danish culture. We got up bloody early the next day to head up to Skagen which is at the northern tip of Denmark. The scenery up there is strange, and unlike anything back in Vancouver. [View Full Entry]

Hello again, We just wanted to give you guys a lil update. We got here to Denmark safe and sound (but an hour or so late). We got our bags pretty quick so that was sweet. I mean, we didnt lose'em to Terminal 5. We did however get lost when walking to the hostel. So we stopped and asked at a swedish/turkish guys' pizzeria where it was. He had no clue, but found a guy who did know. So we celebrated by eating pizza for dinner. The hostel is pretty cool, it's clean and has what you need but it's tucked [View Full Entry]
