OK, once we get our cameras charged up, we'll be able to upload pictures which will back up the words I'm going to attempt to write.
But for now, I'll start with an introduction of sorts

So, it's been one week. A week of frantic activity and small states of panic, mixed with breathtaking architecture, functioning public transport and centuries of history.
Our first stop after leaving Auckland was Japan. We stayed 3 nights there, one night in Tokyo, one night in an overnight bus and one night in Osaka. In and out really. From there we flew, via Frankfurt, to Berlin where we were for another 3 nights, and yesterday we hopped on a really fast train to Cologne.
This sort of brings things up to date. However I wish I could get the words out of the pages of the travel diary I have been keeping because I'm not sure if I can write the same things again without losing it.
We managed to get quite drunk in a beer hall here, which is the norm apparently, but then the people we are staying with turned out to have a practice room/studio where we ended up jamming until 5 or 6 am, which was fantastic, as I haven't been near a drumkit for over a week and I was in need of a fix.
I seem to rember Fletwood Mac coming out at some point, this means it was a good night.
Ouch
Coffee help me now!
next entry in a bit once I'm not so hungover...
