Today we were heading down to Jens mum and dadrsquos house for breakfast and to start sorting out a few things for the wedding. We had waffles and jam and they were yummy. Margaret Jen and Aya and Abby went into Kalispell which is about 45mins north to get some stuff for the wedding and the week ahead so it was good for the girls to get out and about for a while. We soon headed down to the lake

I had to change hotels for my last night in Surfers which was OK but a bit of a waste as the room had a great wide balcony and it was raining hard in Paradise. What do you do when you are starving hungry on a wet day Easy you go to Hard Rock Cafe for a burger and it was a great burger too. I mooched about town loaded a blog edition and tried to find nocost things to do. Its hard as this p

This is our one only blog from bali as our resort only has wifi in the restaurant area.Lovely resort though right on the beach at legian about 20 minutes from Kuta. The weather here is very nice warm but not hot as its winter no humidity.The traffic is worse than Bangkok the drivers are totally insane especially the motorbikes. They come at you from all directions even on the footpaths which

S'up y'all Hello guys thanks for all the comments and everything its so lovely to hear from all of you. We're currently chilling in our hostel just sorting out some stuff over the internet but it definitely feels like we're heading towards the last push of our trip well our bank balances are certainly feeling the expense of travelling Auckland is really cool its a proper big city unlike

It was time to leave Phi Phi for Ao Nang. We packed our stuff and headed for the boat which took us to Krabi Port. We took a bus into Krabi town which dropped us off at some random guest house and we were off to find a way to Ao Nang. We were about to head to the main bus station which was about a 7 km walk when some random Aussie woman on a scooter informed us of where we needed to go to catc

I am currently sitting at the Hongqiao Airport. FREE WIFI I left the hostel this morning at 11301140. Last night I was able to take my suitcase over to Tristan's so I can travel light to Beijing. Yesterday Xuzhi invited me over to her parent's home in Jinshan District which is about an hour away from People's Square. I took line 1 from People's Square to Jinjiang Park where I met Xuzhi at a M

We arrived at Mulu airport and walked for 30mins to the National Park HQ to find out where we could pitch our tent. The Lonely Planet guide says you can camp inside the National Park but when we asked the park warden said different. Luckily we'd previously noticed a bodgejob homestay and camp site set up by a local family on the road to the NP. It was probably a much better place to be than insi

I guess this is going to be a one country per day trip Today it is Hungry a repeat of National Lampoonrsquos vacation. The good thing about Hungry is there is less traffic but all in all this has not been a pleasurable riding trip thus far too much traffic and too much need to weave back and forth from the overtaking lanes. I also continue to have trouble with the traffic indicators on the

Waking up bright and early to a longtailed boat passing by which rocked our entire floating hotel on the river it still takes me awhile after I wake up to realize that I'm actually in Thailand and this is not a dream. It just seems too good to be true how happy I am every morning when I wake up.We were treated with scrambled eggs toasts and a slice of tomato for breakfast. And then we quickly

So I've been making my way around Melbourne working here and there at a few temp jobs that are only for 2 or 3 days a week. It's keeping me alive here but i'm still trying to get full time hours which are only 37.5 here instead of our 40 hours. I went into the city the other day and went to the mall in town called Melbourne Central. There is an old building that instead of ripping down they have j

So Leahanne got us tickets to an AFL game. Her mom is a huge Carlton supporter and they were playing Collingwood on Saturday. So the three of us headed down to the MCG stadium. It was pure craziness down there. Thing Stanley cup finals crowd wise....soooo many people. These Aussies love their Aussie football. Melbourne is a city really into sports. There is something like 20 or 30 stadiums here i'

We donrsquot have breakfast included with our room here at 22 Euros each there is no way to justify spending about 80 Australian on a couple of bits of toast for Tim and an egg for me But we have heaps of cafes across the road leading up to the Eiffel Tower so itrsquos not hard to find one. It ends up costing 11.60 Euros between us big differenceSEGWAY TOURWe head to the Eiffel Tower wh

HolaFreej heeft een artistieke inzinking en weet niet meer hoe ze een blog moet beginnen.... dus ik neem het even over PWe moeten nog even zeggen dat ons prachtige hostel met prachtig uitzicht logischerwijs ook een nadeel heeft... Wij lopen elke dag een paar keer de trappen op en af. En met trappen bedoelen we trappen zoals je ze op het noordelijk halfrond niet kent. Denk tredes van 75 cm hoog

ANNE FRANKWe walk to Anne Frankrsquos house itrsquos easy enough to spot because even though itrsquos not even 9am the queue to get in is already over 100 people long. Apart from the line of people there is really nothing else to make this building any different from all those around it itrsquos just an average house in an average street opposite a canal.Fortunately I bought tickets on

RATS freaked me out and lessened the quality of my downtown Halifax experience. All the construction going on and tearing down of all buildings is making the city rat infested...and Halifax folks are suffering a bit of an infestation. I thought it was super cute till I read the article which coincidently came out on CBC.CA today. So I only give 2.5 stars to this city which should be a 4. The pie

This morning started with feeding the deer breakfast again and learning my hotelrsquos internet was still out. So I trekked into town for another watermelon smoothie and some email time. Rudy says his smoothies are just watermelon a little sugar and TLC. Then I took a water taxi to the cruise ship destination known as West Bay. The beach is beautiful. I see what all the fuss is about. S

We left Indonesia on Wednesday in an overnight flight from Bali to Darwin to Cairns Australia. Brutal but the kids as usual did not complain about the travel even once and they were too tired to fight amazing.We stayed at the Rydges Hotel with a great view of the Esplanade. Our room on the eleventh floor was overlooking the skateboard park playground and Circus Arts. Allegra took one look a

We arrived in Washington DC on time after being behind time for much of the trip I don't know where and how Amtrak made up the time. We ate lunch at Union Station and then picked up our rental car. The parking lot at Washington DC Union Sation is quite extensive we had quite a difficult time trying to find the rental car up a couple of floors and across a bus depot. We got our car a Nissan
