Oh what a happy day.. it was check out day!!

Oh the joy!! We awoke nice and early with a cheerful disposition as we realized it was check out day! Hoorah! We packed our bags louder than what would have been considered considerate, dumped them at the lockers (of course we had to pay, they wouldn’t look after them for nothing would...

London Marathon

Oh my gosh. I have never, ever, EVER seen so many people in one place at one time, who are SO dang healthy! It was scary, it was overwhelming, and it was well too much… it was…the London marathon. This is a huge marathon that goes for 26 miles all around London and the record is done in just...

Anzac day at Westminster Abbey.

Ahhh, Anzac day. A day of remembering what the diggers did for us and of how blessed we are to be a) Australian and b) be living in such an amazing, free country. We always like to celebrate this day back home and the fact that we are half a world away didn't stop us doing so today. We hopped...

London again

We're baaaaack! We left Bristol at lunch time and head back to the big smoke, arriving at around 2pm. We love the train, but sadly this time there were no more happy holiday makers willing to buy us free booze. Can't have it all I guess *sigh* Actually, I think they remembered us from last...

Runaround Day (and a bit of the British Museum)

It had to happen sometime, I just wasn’t quite ready for it, I thought we’d have more time… It wasn’t nice, it wasn’t pretty.. it was the day of “completing all the errands” We did have plans of seeing the museums today as the weather was shite and it was better to be indoors than out, but...

Tower of London and St Pauls

Things have been so busy and crazy these past few days that Chris and I haven’t had a chance to sit down and blog, but now on Easter Sunday we’re resisting the urge to leap up and eat many Easter eggs and instead, blog. It’s probably better for our health.. So to catch up we shall pick up...

We did it, we're in the UK finally!

We're here! We've arrived! My gosh, so much has happened in the past 24 hours I almost don't know where to begin, but I guess the obvious place would be the start, so.. here we go... Last time we wrote we were waiting to board into the lap of luxury once more. This time, there were only 7...

Newborn Gazelle

I felt like a newborn gazelle as I walked towards the train station with my backpack. I think I may have packed a few too many items... as I wobbled my way down the hill on legs that suddenly felt even skinnier than usual I was trying to work out where I may have gone wrong. After much debate I...

The Night Before

So tomorrow is the big day; and yet, despite months of preparation, there are a multitude of unforeseens. When I first decided to leave on April 1st (a prefered date because I have throughout my life stubbornly tried to challenge superstition), I did not know that the G20 summit would be being...
