Hi all,

the next morning we all went to see the Milau viaduct, a massive bridge. Pretty cool, took the obligatory photos and then took off to Toulouse for the AB vs Romania game. Arrived at the campsite in convoy 7 vans poured in and were greeted by another group of mates (who had been on the the beers all morn) in fine form who packed down a haka and laid out beer koha's for us to accept it was pretty cool. That was quickly followed by a full on game of BYC..........good times. The campsite was pretty good - cheap and with a bar where we ended up watching the Fiji vs England game at the bar.

The next day we doned our AB gear and headed off to the game to watch NZ's finest beat Romania. The game was one way trafic but still good to see the team. After the game we ran into Sam, who we meet in Valencia and followed us to Pamps. He took us to the rugby festival the city had put on to celebrate the world cup. Awesome set up with a massive outdoor screen for the rugby and a grass sitting area surrounded by bars and food stalls. Good nite had by all then tried to make it back to campground.......what a mission........we took the train to our stop then expected to find taxis to get the last bit of journey home but there were none to be found. We started to walk but it was a long way so we harlf heartedly tried to flag down cars and to our surprise a french guy pulled over and made 2 trips getting us back to camp ground what a great guy he wouldn't even accept any dosh!

Slept in the next day then slowely got our stuff sorted before heading north towards our ferries. We stayed in a services that night which was our last with all of us together of the tour a bit sad but its been a long trip and we both looking forward to some creature comforts of our old london flat.

Almost finished folks.......hope you all well
