well not long now, we leave on tuesday for our round the world trip. sooooooo excited a week in singapore, 3 weeks in Australia 2 weeks in new zealand 1 week in LA then home!! this week i hiked a small mountain 'slieve martin' with my littlest sis Anne, we had such a laugh, and very sore legs after. it was a wee bit spooky at times as the cloud came down & we couldn't see where we where going. but we made the most of it and rolled down a grass bank, like children ( Anee will now kill me for putting that on the world wide web!!) however we were obviously affected by the altitude and not thinking clearly as this was on the way up and then had to walk back up again!!! ... read more

One day to go... 'Marrakesh or better'!!! Lets spark this bad boy up... The last stew is made, the laces are laced and the passports are... where??? So we are going to have a crack at documenting our travels over the next few months, mainly for ourselves, but if you wanna read our travel anectdotes your welcome. I don't how long we will stick at it, but we (mainly Lisa) have good intentions. Briefly, we will be in Morocco, Egypt, India, Nepal, Sri Lanka and thailand over the next few months - we have no set itinerary but have been ably aided by Mr. Lonely Planet and Mrs Rough Guide so we think we are pretty much set for the adventure of a lifetime. WOO HOOO...!! ... read more

It has been a while since we graced these pages but after a brief jaunt across the Irish Sea, we couldn't resist the chance to fill you in on our lovely holiday (even those bah humbugging, who have been at work for the past two weeks). So, it has to be sure been a lovely holiday in the Emerald Isle, one which we have largely spent enjoying beautiful scenery and large meals, interspersed by pints of Guinness and Bulmers (Alex got told off by a waitress for calling it Magners). Our trip began, as most do, with a brief delay at the airport, however it then continued with a taxi down the runway during which Simon proudly pointed out the new Terminal 5 at Heathrow and his portacabin next door (Alex feigned interest but appreciated his ... read more

While packing for the next leg of our trip, we put on some music using the trusty iPod and let loose with some singing. Suddenly, there was a knock at the door, which Jenn answered. A guy about our age stood there and said, “Oh, hi, I just HAD to come over and see who was holding that note!” Jenn laughed and closed the door. Very random. Apparently, our karaoke practices had been paying off. We bid farewell to the hostel with another tasty meal at the Causeway Café and lugged our bags up Great Victoria Street to the bus station. A little note here - the men in Belfast seem to enjoy hitting on women from their cars. Elderly women, women with strollers, women with tons of luggage, doesn’t matter to them - you need ... read more
