Edu-ma-kational, Thank You Thompson Clan Jacob, Living in OZ, I have met, worked with and befriended many of The Muslim Faith. I am fairly informed, however... I did not know that Mosques communicated with chanting. Thank you for that.
Michelle, driving between Asia and Europe... how cool!
As Borderless Kiwis', we all grew up KNOWING only that The Entire World revolves around NZ!
I recently stood astride The NSW/QLD border and on a much smaller scale, understand your awe.
Subjective lines are purely psychological, yet powerful. In an afternoon you became Inter-Continental.
Rest assured, that as a Patriotic State-Of-Origin Cockroach, whilst astride my border-experience,
I took a Dump on The Queensland side...
Mike,
No words to express Gallipoli, Anzac Cove etc.
Yours were perfect.
Since 1989, I have felt that I live in The Anzac Zone!
Anzac Day for me is special. However, daily here, The Anzac Spirit is alive with great natured NZ/OZ banter.
The Anzac Brotherhood is alive and well, due to those blokes a hundred years ago.
Re-Spect!
Skip to 2013 and recent war events/fallen ANZACS in Orezgon Province,
a radio program/interviews I listened to, reassured that the ANZAC Sisterhood/Brotherhood is 100% intact and solid.
Thank you Thompsons for representing us all, at such a sacred-site.
Lotsa love,
Dion
p.s 155kmh taxi ride?
Sounds a bit like "pedal-envy",
as you only had your campervan up to 149kmh,
in reverse!

Loving loving loving the blog - but sorry guys, Jake is by far the most entertaining. His final par on Da Vinci had me in stitches (although this may not have been his intent) :-)
Very jealous of your travels - see you are taking cruise from Istanbul. We are thinking of doing one with Oceania next year from there, 10 nights to Barcelona. Look forward to hearing how this part goes as Steve is less than keen on the idea of cruising xxx
We loved your descriptions of MC. We too thought it was amazing - that was in 1992! We tried to get into a casino, but weren\'t allowed, as we were wearing \"tennis shoes\".
Thanks for taking us with you Hi to the jet setters. Am enjoying your blog. It's wonderful to escape to Europe in my report writing breaks!!! What an amazing experience in Barcelona. Can't wait to read more and hear in detail when you get back. Enjoy all these wonderful experiences, and may the holiday go slowly for you! Rae
Go Barca! You have enjoyed every minute of your holiday and I have enjoyed every minute reading about it. I love that we can read it from your three points of view. Lucky people getting to watch Barca win. I hope I am as lucky on Dec 7 when I am planning to watch Liverpool v West Ham. Continue to enjoy!
