Jatin repun hostelliin sailytykseen. Kavin ensin kavelylla alajuoksulla pain. Olisin jatkanut pidemmallekin, mutta etelarannalla kavelytie loppui, joten palasin takaisin. Huomasin etta oikea kenkani oli alkanut hajota. Pitaa korjauttaa se tai ostaa uudet. Uusien ostamisessa on toki oma riskinsa nain matkalla. Poikkesin kirjakaupassa ja ostin 6 punnalla ohuen bridgekirjan, jossa on 121 vinkkia pelinsa parantamiseen. Kavin katsomassa kansojen museon, ja soin intialaisessa seisovan poydan. Paljon sita mausteista ruokaa ei tosin jaksanut syoda. Paatin ostaa uudet kangaskengat ja heitin vanhat roskiin, kyse oli siis varakengista eika niista joilla paaosin kavelen. Olin asemalla jo tuntia ennen junan lahtoa. Olin tosiaan ostanut liput hyvissa ajoin etukateen, jolloin ne sai paljon halvemmalla kuin viime tinkaan. Vahan sama asia kuin lentolippujen kanssa. Junamatka meni rattoisasti: sain ... read more

Friday 27th August 2010 We finally left the country starting in style drinking champagne on the Euro Star and everything was going swimmingly! Our overnight journey from Cologne to Berlin was not a sleeper though. Just as we was about to spread out and get some shut eye others boarded and were booked on the spare seats in our compartment! This then involved some interesting positions trying to sleep! Saturday 28th August 2010 Arrived in Berlin at about 5am in the morning and managed to sweet talk the person at our hotel/hostel which was ace (and right by the sation) to let us have our rooms - o after he sent us to some mans room by mistake tehee! He was very confused as to why 4 women had just walked into his room lol. We ... read more

Day one We left for the airport about 6pm for the flight time of 9.30pm   Check in pretty easy and the only thing to do was to occupy our time for the   next three hrs. Unforunately our first meal was a typical greasy burger king and our first drink was from the classy birmingham airports local   weatherspoon. Travelling in style..... and the reason why I ordered a pims.   After checking the exiciting a-z books in the weathers. Classy. I managed to find   some more change. So more pims.....to get nicely pissed for the plane   journey. The plane journey was fine watched shutter island.... Which rohan and   sean recommend. Brilliant choice. Of course it was. Their judgement is   hardly ever wrong on films. Food wasn't brilliant but I have ... read more

Hello everyone! It's tea time here in England and I am sitting in my friend Lynne's House in Beenham, England which is a little town of about a 1,000 people just outside of Reading. I arrived here on the train last night about an hour and a half south of Coventry. I grew up with Lynne's children in Toronto and she and her family have invited me to spend a weekend here with them as my course takes a pause for a few days. I am sorry to have not updated sooner, my course is busy and the internet isn't as accessible or as cheap and I have been enjoying the sights in and around Coventry. Since I last wrote we have been on a few adventures. After our trip to see the performance at the ... read more
