... a flight to Morocco where we'll spend a few weeks. We plan to overland it in Morocco and take the ferry across the Strait of Gibraltar and into Spain. ' We then head into Portugal for a couple of weeks in Lagos before heading back to the Spanish border to make our way all the way up the coast to Barcelona again. Come along for the ride!

... home crowd was amazing and created a impressive atmosphere. Final score was 31-14 :-(

The exit to the ground was also quite impressive. As we walked out the gates there were approx 50 Limo's waiting to pick people up. Many people got a group of 10-20 together and used the Limo as the transport while the had a ball all day. Most had the esky in the back and left the chauffer to the driving. Very different to ...

... We both got a coffee but I will admit mine was twice the size of Linda's and I also got a choc glazed donut too while Linda went the non-fat blueberry muffin with hers.

We were only on the road for another hour or two and we were both cactus again. We had to pull over in a truck stop and passed out for over 2 hours. It was the best sleep yet of the whole trip So tired we heard nothing and felt quite good.
Hit the road again ...

The falls were falling all right - especially when illuminated with changing lights at night. Las-Vegas-By-The-Falls (a.k.a Niagara Falls town) was a bit of a surprise - definitely an American import, but Canadian version was somewhat less boring and tasteless than original US one

... late and I needed to get back. I had a long walk back. I crossed the bridge. Got asked many many questions. I was nervous, but they let me across. I stepped into the state of New York and I was happy to be back in the US. I kept looking at my picures. It was perfect.

To be alone was fun; but to take someone next time would be even better. There is nothing like sharing a beautiful moment like this one! Like in the Bible, "two are better than ...

... for?" ... stamp passport, see ya. On the way back in to the U.S. from Canada: "What's your address? Why are you coming in to the U.S.? Are you bringing any alcohol in? Any tobacco in? Anything that you're going to leave in the U.S.? Where are you going now? Why are you ging to Ohio? When are you are you going back to Australia?" ... wander off, check numberplates, wander into Customs ...

... beer in about 4 days. One sip had us both pretty light headed. Then we had a quick bite and walked around looking for somewhere to celebrate. All we could find was a group of kids from Indiana playing folk music on a street corner. So we sat for a bit and had a listen. They were great.

It was so nice to sleep in a bed after !!!!800 MILES!!!!

... to the boatman before he divied into the river were "If I die at least they'll do something for my wife". I vowed that when I'd seen the falls I would try to honour the man whose death confirms the aweesome power of the falls. I asked a park ranger the way to Oakwood Cemetery, a look of bafflement cme across his face. No one had ever asked him where the most famous casualty of Niagara was buried. He didn't even know the tragedy had ...

... on the tongue, The numbers are dropping, is Zero in sight? With polio down, although not yet demolished, We find in our sights, other challenges to face. Huge Africa awaits, its needs are immense: Malaria a blight, AIDS / HIV a scourge. So Ethiopia is our target, its plans our purview, Can a plan be established, a goal put down true, Which gives us a program, all can sign off on? Westerners to finance, Africans to act. We ...

... the route there was a McDonalds restaurant which was being pulled down and the couple turned to look in horror and in a confused manor frantically asked each other "Why would they tear down McDonalds, why would they do that????" If you ever go to the states you must see the Niagara Falls, there are so many different views from various vantage points. I did get a bit snap happy, as usual, but as the first wonder of the world I've seen I think it was worth it. We got off the ...
