Current Status: excited ;)<br><br>18 months of preparation has flown by and now there's only 7 days to go!! We've been having 3 walking sessions a week in preparation for the trek, which fingers crossed, pays off. We are all working as a team, building on our friendships, which was helped at a Vietnamese meal we all attended with our parents. We all gained respect after drinking the initiation shake that included tofu, apple juice, garnish,<br>pepper, noodle ...

... in Britain. After WW2, the factory was transferred to Chennai, where they are still in production today. An experienced motor bike mechanic will accompany the tour and support vehicles will carry all the luggage,so All I have to do is ride and enjoy the sights.<br><br>After the ride I will go on an overnight side trip to Agra to see the Taj Mahal, Agra Fort and the abandoned Moghul city of Fatehpur Sikri.

... got it towed and the mechanic said to come back in an hour to tell us the damage, so off we went with our packed lunch down to the river, did a spot of sunbathing, went for a walk....to be honest there are worse places to break down :-) But the news was bad and the car had gone to car heaven may it RIP. So we had to wait for another five hours before we could be towed all the way back to Perth. So off we went again, this time down to the river...got some beers ...

... later that afternoon, so we said our goodbyes and left at 11am. It was a fantastic 5 days in Perth, we thoroughly enjoyed spending quality time with them. Other than in Sydney for Tony and Carols wedding recently we have only been able to snatch a few nights out at dinner here and there with them over the last couple of years, always when we didn't have lots of time. Hopefully they might join us in Broome in May or Darwin in August!

... at tage på weekend sydpå ved Margaret River. Vi havde lejet et kæmpe sommerhus med 5 soveværelse lige ned til stranden, så vi startede med at pakke ud og gå en tur ned til stranden. Janne kom efter arbejde og var dernede omkring kl. 19, hvor vi spiste og bagefter blev der spillet spil og læst i bøger. Weekenden gik med at besøge The Berry Farm, hvor vi kunne smage marmelade og frugtvin og vi fik alle købt lidt spiseligt souvenir. Så fik vi spist hjemmelavet is på Simmos ...

A really early start yesterday (Sunday) morning, but after checking out of the Medina and saying goodbye to Hazel and Mike we headed to the airport to catch a 9.00 flight to Perth. Our taxi driver was a really nice young guy who said that he was originally of middle-eastern stock but he had been born and raised in Sweden. He said that he had decided to come to Brisbane to do his degree, to avoid distractions, by which we took it he ...

... is over 2000km away; this is apparently the most isolated major city in the world. Western Australia covers a third of the continent, so we're going to think reasonable in our 2 and a bit remaining weeks and go for a small tour round the bottom corner. <br><br><br>Perth is a very smart clean city with a mellow attitude and some stunning beaches a short train ride away; yesterday we went to Cottesloe which has glorious white sand, clean Indian ...
