Well from London it was off to Gatwick Airport and down to Split (Croatia). We had an afternoon there and used it by climbing the hill by the harbour before getting on a boat the the island of Korcula, which was amazing. We stayed in Korcula for a few days, then got on a train and headed up to Munich to watch Australia play Brazil. (No we didnt have tickets - we watched it in a beer garden on a big screen, but the atmosphere was awesome). From there, the plan was to head to Austria, but with our mates from Innsbruck and Vienna out of town, we made a fairly spur-of-the-moment decision to head up to Scandinavia. About 24 hours on trains later, I'm writing this from a friend's place in Norway. Here are some pictures of the trip so far...

We stayed on an amazing island off the croatian coast called Korcula. This is the view from the balcony of the house that we were so lucky to stay in.

Mike and i had been planning to get haircuts in Croatia where we thought the hairdressers wouldnt speak english. But in the end we bought a set of clippers and did it ourselves.

We pimped it on our last night in korcula, and even splashed out on a restaurant dinner. However we went to the supermarket for dessert.
