... school, and then going to tour round afterwards. Not 100% sure yet but will definately be doing Kerela and then North India.

Enjoy :)

We began the journey back to London. Before reaching Calais port in France, we stopped in Belgium for lunch, and to pick up some chocolate of course.

When we reached the port, it became apparent that we had just missed the ferry to Dover by less than 5 minutes and had to wait 3 hours for the next one! We were none too pleased, given the amount of time spent on a coach for the past 3 weeks. Not much ...

... there are no shows on Monday Afternoons!! So we packed Chezza on a tour bus to see all the sites that we saw only 4 weeks ago and me and noma headed off to the cinema to see the new Bruce Willis movie! Yes how can we sit in a dark cinema for 2 hours when there are all the sites and sounds of London to see!! The film was pretty good though!

So the next day we had done some research into shows this time and headed back in to see 39 steps ...

WOW! First day in London and im staying with friends I met in Australia on my Contiki escape adventure! First thing I noticed in Woodley, was all the BRICK! I mean everything, every single thing you can put brick on, has it! Building, houses, offices, decorative finishings were even brick! I was amazed. That night I went over to Dan's house for ...

... on a day like today, I'd love to sit outside on and watch the other other terrace-sitters in the neighborhood. But, for some reason, there are strong bolts forbidding the window to be opened more than an inch ...i'll have to work on that.
Today, the sun is shining and the birds are chirping. I'm off to the park for the rest of the morning. I'm meeting up with Alex this afternoon, to get an inside tour of London.

... s so facinating and the British Museum has a fantastic collection. In other, although no travel related, news....I found out on Saturday that my sister-in-law had an ultrasound this week and it looks like there will be a new girl in the family soon. I wish I could be there when the baby was born but it's still really exciting news. So Congrats to my brother and his wife!!!! From now on I'm going to try to update once weekly, ciao for now.

... of the hills surrounding Glastonbury and a superb natural viewpoint. Two thousand years ago, at the foot of the Tor was a vast lake called "Ynys-witrin", the Island of Glass. It is partly from this that the association of Glastonbury with legendary Avalon comes about, as in Celtic folklore Avalon was an isle of enchantment, the meeting place of the dead. Before modern drainage, the Tor would have towered as an Island above the flooded Somerset Levels. The terraces on the slopes ...

... Just my type of Indian gal! Aunty Tracy said she was checking me out, by her furtive glances at me... but she didn't know that I had my sights on that sweet little thing the moment I got onto the tube!! Couldn't deprive my roaming sniper eyes, could I mate? lol!( have to thank SAF for training me so well as a sniper!). I don't know why time seems to travel so fast in such situations... as it was Piccadilly Station & it was time to disembark! only when I got off the tube did I awaken ...

... Sacha in Mallorca) before meeting up with Kirsty (pictured above) in Malaga, Spain on September 13th. We plan to take the ferry to Morocco the next day and travel there for 3 weeks before heading back to the UK on October 4th. On the 7th we will then head off by plane to Addis Ababa, Ethiopia for more adventure! Nothing is planned from there.... but we should spend a month or so in ...
