Congratulations! Congratulations on becoming husband and wife! Such a perfect way to end your round the world trip. Hope you are both settling back in to life in the UK. Will miss reading your blogs!
Almost the same pictures! Hey guys, take a look at our blog from L.A. it's almost the same! Guess we all do the same tourist track.
Nice Pictures and blog.
Regards,
Roel
Chateau Thomas Hey guys, Great to have you stay, we really enjoyed your company! When did Hotel Thomas get upgraded to a Chateaux! LOL!
Sorry to hear about your dramas with Qantas check in and your luggage. I hope you are giving them what for!
Have fun!

Shells A word of caution: be careful when bringing your precious collection of shells in to NZ; The MAF/DOC guys get pretty hysterical very quickly over things like that especially if they have come from their arch rivals the Aussies!! See you in about 3 weeks time. C :-)
Kuala baby Is that a kuala u r holding or are u dressed all in grey and are 9 months pregnant?? Hee hee sorry had to say that.
Hope u get less rain soon. It's rained here for the last week and of course today as it's bonfire night. xx
Hello mate, still enjoying your blog.
We had the same thing when we travelled for 9 weeks around Oz. We did 4 weeks in NZ straight after though and loved it, wished we'd done it the other way around.
Christmas is a weird one there, just tuck into all the lovely food and forget about roast turkey.

road rage Don't indicate Smack the bastards ! , when tailgated just slow down to about 10mph then when they go to overtake just keep pace with um , they'll shite themselves when they see a wagon coming in the opposite direction !!
travel can be fun eh!!
love Dad xx
:-D You sound like you're in a bit of a funk dude....
I was exactly the same when we first got on the road in Oz for about 3-4 weeks... Combination of sleeping badly, (our mattress in our van was seriously crap), eating rubbish, usually out of a tin (we used to talk endlessly about what we were going to eat when we got home) and long stretches of samey nothing while driving for hours... It got better though and we really got in the swing of things. Wait till you get to north QLD, seriously beautiful up there mate...
Travel safe peeps!
Mike.
Coffs If my memory serves me right you should be arriving in Coffs Harbour soon, make sure you get a picture outside the Big Banana - it really is very big!
Singapore seems like a popular 'goodbye Asia' stopover! how did you like the airport?? (I could have spent a day there, I'm a bit airport fan though)

Back Home Hi you two,
Thanks for the two blogs
You have certainly added some miles to your little van. you're right - Canberra is kind of a non-place. It's only called the capital because parliament sits there, not because it's a big city! thanks for your kind words about our roast. I had a fun night too.
We got home today to a loooong lawn, loads of weeds and camelia petals everywhere so after cleaning that up we are settling down to a pizza for tea.
Stay safe and keep enjoying yourselves.
Cheers,
Marg
Our first big trip was between April 2010 and March 2011. We visited China, then Hong Kong, Thailand, Laos, Cambodia, Malaysia, Singapore, OZ, New Zealand and finally the USA.
We're now preparing for another 6 month jolly to SE Asia - leaving in September.
