5 days to go . . . . surely not?
Sunday, June 24, 2007
. . . sadly folks the end of the trip is fast approaching, much faster than we had infact anticipated and now we find ourselves with just Paris to go. This is only a short one as we still have packing and showers left to go and checkout is in an hour . . . oh we're in Bruges (Belgium) by the way - I'm sure you'd all like it here - its very nice. We have now uploaded the rest of our photos including Strasbourg, Amsterdam and here. Hope the sun is as shiny there as it is here. Catch you all very soon, xx

When I grow up I want to be a beer bottle . .
Wednesday, June 20, 2007
. . . hello from Amsterdam, today we went to the Heineken Experience where we got the chance to see how a beer bottle lives. Looked awesome! Lots of rattling, zipping around conveyer belts, and then wiggling into boxes where you get to sleep for a while, then you get cracked open to momentarily enjoy the party before getting tipped down some drunkards throat, awesome no?
Anyways Amsterdam is rather nice, and the weather hasn't let us down with lots of sunshine again! Its very scenic here with lots of old buildings and such like. Tomorrow we go to Bruges in Belgium for a few days before finishing off the trip in Paris hopefully including a trip to Euro Disney! For those that are familiar with the planned route you may have noticed a few changes, we were supposed to finish in Amsterdam but accomodation has been a bit troublesome.
Anyways that'll have to be all, internet time is heavily limited here, see you all very soon - only 9 days left I think . . .cheerio ta ta

Long time no Blog
Friday, June 15, 2007
Where to begin . . . . we are now in France, Strasbourg to be precise close to the German border, it seems very nice so far although we have sadly spent much of the day indoors due to some bad weather, I guess the rain had to catch up with us eventually. You're going to have to bear with me as this keyboard is a bit hazadous to get on with as these French types have cleverly re-arranged all the keys making it an uphill struggle to type anything remotely coherent - phew.
Over the last few weeks it's been a bit of a nightmare to add any updates as the tinternet has been rather expensive and time has become a little pressed. Over the last few days we have tried to catch up a bit and have added some much more recent photos, so if you haven't checked back in a while you should find lots of new albums from Copenhagen, Berlin, Prague, Heidelberg and Interlaken.
We've been having a fantastic time and on the whole the weather has been fantastic too, although we have been caught out a couple of times - particularly in Heidelberg when we got caught half way back from, the castle and ended up seeking shelter in a random portaloo we stumbled across whilst running for cover (much to some onlookers amusement).
Talking of Heidelberg we must thank Horst and Petra again for inviting us to stay in their very nice house, not to mention all the food and local beer. It was really great to see you both and Lena and hopefully we'll see you again soon! Whilst I'm doing thankyous I should also say thanks to Lowe Alpine for my shiny new bag - for those that didn't know mine broke and was being held together by some crafty stitching by Dani since Vienna!
Right I really better tie this up, enjoy all the new photo's. We've tried to include a few more of us for all the people that complain there aren't enough - although why you would want to look at our, ok my ugly mug is beyond me. Right everyone, Cheerio ta ta, Much Love as always - PS I hope Di, Mel, Kim and whoever else was going enjoy(ed / s) the Hen party in Paris, don't wreck the place before I've seen it xxx
