We have arrived!!

Hello all

Well it is 10am UK time - we are tired and in the same clothes we left Adelaide in!! We cant check into our hotel until 2pm...so just wandering the streets and seeing what this place is all about! Its certainly a busy place - I personally find it a bit dull - not much colour and its sooo cold here!!!

Anyway - just wanted to let you know we have arrived safely! After checking emails etc we are heading to the National Gallery and British Museum. Just local things around town and at 2pm we will go check in and have a shower and probably have a early night!! PS - I am writing this on the famous Oxford Street ;-) Oh and scott has said to say that everyone here is so quiet - not as friendly as in Australia. We went to McDonalds earlier and you could have heard a pin drop in there...quite amusing!

Speak to you soon!

Party Time



Morning - well last night was spent celebrating Yammies 18th and Babbage's 21st. I am feeling a little seedy this morning :-/ Happy Mothers Day to our Mums too!!
So Dave - these photos are for you especially - know how much you wanted to be there but I am sure you are having a good time in LA and Vegas anyway ;-)
Scott and I have 2 weeks to go until we depart....freaking out!!!!

Wow!

Wow....how time flies....we only have 13 days left at work!!! It is crazy....so much to do in so little time now! Its hard to concentrate when the head is full of holiday things to do!
Been a few minor changes to the itiniary - but wont post them on here...just going to skip Brussels now - had some feedback that its not the best place and not worth going to - so going to skip there and spend more time in Paris YEAH!!! Ever since I was in my early teens I wanted to go to France so looking forward to spending a bit more time there!!
Looking at organising our Eurail passess tomorrow as well - and slowly looking at accomodation in a few places - typically being world cup time and peak season a lot of places are already close to booking out so we had better hurry!!!

Anyway I am at work and a candidate of mine has just walked in the door - so will speak to you later!!
