... along the east coast from Brisbane to Melbourne. From there I'll be getting active in Tasmania, with visits to mountains, forests, beaches and cultural sites. Along the way I hope to write and document my experiences, so I hope you'll drop in from time to time and see how I'm getting on?!

Hello once again,<br><br>Thought we'd better back track and update from the last entry of Budda!<br><br>So we got back to Reading without any problems and picking up our hire car at Gatwick airport in the pouring rain. Drove back early in the morning and arrived back at Mat and Jo's around 11am.<br>The rest of the day was basically spent recovering from getting up at 4am to catch the flight back from Budda. Although we did manage to drag ourselves out of the house to go and watch the ...

At around 06:00 Arcadia slowly approached the Ocean Terminal berth and our Cruise was nearly over. We enjoyed one last breakfast in the Belevedere and waited for our disembarkation at 09:15. We sat and reflected about where we had been and all the facilities that the ship offered. My favourites where the Crows nest which is a bit like "Ten Forward" on the Enterprise "D", the Palladium ...

After being with my uncle for a couple of weeks I headed to the New Forest to stay with friends of mum and dads for a while. They live in a beautiful part of the county, surrounded by a National Forest. Its full of wild horses, pigs, cows and donkeys. They just walk around the forest, across roads etc. So its a bit dangerous.. well i think so anyway.<br><br>I went for lots of bike rides through the forest, some in the forest itself and some along the ...

My next port of call!<br><br>Southampton is also famous, well in the olden days ...

A great temple and bath was founded on the site of the current city, hence the name - Bath. Today you can see much of the Roman ruins of the baths complex. Part of it has been restored, but the original plumbing and drain system is in place and it still ...

... DVDs while eating lunch. Then we went into town to pick up a few things including an electrical adaptor for my laptop. I was disappointed to find that they didn't have any universal ones that would work for Europe as well so I had to settle on the only UK one. Then we went mattress shopping because Sonya said her back hurt from her current bed. We jumped up and down on several varieties before she found a few that she liked. I was glad ...

Well there is certainly something to be said for old friends. I haven't really seen anyone from home for over a year and well, it was a real treat to be able to meet up with some here in England. I missed my best friends' wedding a few months ago so I was quite excited to spend some quality time with her and her new husband. It's so weird to think of her as Sonya the wife. I am so used to thinking of her as Sonya the crazy fun chick who has way too much insurance on me. As ...
