Me and the boys...
Hello all, long time no speak, so I thought id better update you all with what I have been up too this last month.

After 4 months in a tiny town I woke up one morning and thought too myself I need too leave. I got on the Internet with a friend and booked two, one-way tickets too Spain. As his brother was already there with friends we thought we might as well tag-along.

We landed and went straight into Pamplona for the biggest street festival in Spain: A week long Sangria-fest. After a sleepless night in the closest park we could find, as we got there at midnight with no accommodation, straight too the running of the bulls. Now iv done a lot of dumb things in my life and this was definitely up there with the best of them.

It was quite an experience but was too many people in a tiny town for our liking so after three night, we hired a car and decided to drive around Spain and Portugal for a few weeks. We basically followed the coast anti-clockwise, stopping and camping wherever we liked the look of, or how many females where

We went too all the main cities, Portugal having the nices beaches by far and Barcelona coming first in a tough race for best city in Spain in our opinion, it as so clean and so many nice people.

So after a lot of paella, sangria and swimming, the dream has come too an end. My next country is still unknown, but you never know, maybe ill wake up tomorrow and book another plane ticket somewhere….

Till then, Drakey OXOX
