Contiki Grand Southern
Hi, I hope you don't mind me reading your blog about your Contiki Grand Southern trip. I am extremly impressed with the way you have been able to present all this detail about your trip along with the photos as well. I wish I could have done the same presentation of my trip many, many years ago. I live in Box Hill Sth in Melbourne and did a Contiki Westerner trip 30 yrs ago now. And then just last year in March 2013 i took my wife and kids over and retraced a lot of it, My eldest son Leo who turns 22 in July is now going back over in July to do the Contiki Grand Southern with 6 days in LA befor and then 5 in NY after, and from reading what you have done he will have a great , great time with many, many late nights and a few early starts as well I presume. I have told him he should really try and do as many of the extra side tours like the raftting and balooning that he can because may not get the chance to do it again. until anougher 30 years like myself. Did you go much over budget with all of this? I think he is also going to pack lightly as he will probably shop for plenty of clothing items. I hope he can come back and do a blog like this about his trip, as it is something to keep and remember for life. I can still recall about most days of my trip but without email and facebook it was much harder to continue catching up with all the new friends made. He was also thinking about taking his laptop to download his pics onto. Do you think that is a good idea and was security an issue for you at all for any item like that at hotels where you stayed? Regards and thanks... John Morgan

Thanks very good blog...

Once again
I'm left sitting at work reading your travel adventures !!!

Little less info please
The whole world doesn't need to know your room number mate. Anyway what's the combo of the safe...lol. Glad u made it safe, have a ball.

Hey posted back on 2nd Feb...re-discovered and re-reading your blog now...heading off to LA in 3 weeks, start the GS in 4 weeks! So amped! Will give your Europe blog a read over when I get back, somewhere else I hope to be in 1-2 years :)

Eww! Boobs! I wouldn't have known where to look! The floor probably! lol

Sounds like all the decent weather has been following you, cos it sure as hell hasn't been here since you left London! lol Bring it back with you won't you?! x x

lol How can you now be scared of white water rafting?! It was awesome on the GS09! I was SO scared before, but LOVED it!

OH MY GOD!! I think I would have passed out seeing that kind of stuff!! haha OMG that's just wrong!! Although glad the Space Cakes helped to make it more tolerable! lol

Comment wouldn't work on last blog.
Can't believe u texted me from there, must say that was pretty cool. U r right about some of the girls in the windows, when I went there some of them could have quite easily been very well paid models they looked that hot. I actually said..... nevermind! This is comment for this blog: Soft arse, we should have practised before u left...lol I am proud of u though for giving it a go. Nice one mate. We'll practise more befor your next trip. Oh yeah loved the Heineken brewery tour, when I went there with by bessie mate, we drank more than anyone else on the tour so 2 of the guys who work there were so impressed, they took their Heinekin bow ties off and gave it to us. Still have the proof somewhere at home. Take care and enjoy mate.

hahahaha! Loving the sound of the sheer tackiness of that ship cabaret and disco! Oh dear hun! Hope you managed to make something fun of it by having a drink or ten! lol x x

Glad you had a fab birthday hun! Although I don't think I've ever heard such a funny word as "g-banger"! lol Oh you Aussies and your weird (or should that be wierd MM?!) words! Singlet and thongs indeed...
