RUSSIAN FEDERATION | Thursday, 7 Sep 2017 | Views [252]
Our first real foray into the Russian rail network. And the start of the second half of our adventure. We were glad to be at the station early, as there were a few formalities to complete. Firstly, scanning all luggage as you enter the train station.... Read more >

We're here. In Russia! After all the planning and paperwork and beaurocracy we are in. We have 3 weeks in this fascinating and enigmatic culture and I'm sure we will only scratch the surface of what makes this country tick.
We hike out of the train ... Read more >

Well, this is it, this is where things will get interesting. Today we go to Russia! Our train was at a very civilised time of 11am . We were at the station with plenty of time and were able to board about 20 minutes early. Pretty standard ... Read more >

Upon arrival, we first had to hang out in a coffee shop for an hour or so until we could drop our bags off at our apartment. Not such a bad thing given our rush at the breakfast buffet on the ship.
Our apartment was big, bright and decked out ... Read more >

SWEDEN | Friday, 1 Sep 2017 | Views [312]
Even self imposed rules were meant to the broken, right? Using a train on this leg is not possible. So cruise boat it is! Complete with a shopping promenade, casino, night club & stacks of restaurants. The ticket was cheap, but it meant our tiny ... Read more >

NORWAY | Monday, 28 Aug 2017 | Views [331]
There are only two trains per day between Oslo and Stockholm. The first one at 5.30am, which is totally inappropriate for holidays and the second at 1.30pm. The second train it is!
Unfortunately, not too much to report for this trip. Except ... Read more >

DENMARK | Sunday, 27 Aug 2017 | Views [301]
Three countries to conquer today. Breakfast in Denmark, lunch in Sweden and dinner in Norway. And an early start, first train at 8am. But we are grateful to that its just a little tiredness and the sickness is almost all gone. We took the bus ... Read more >
DENMARK | Saturday, 26 Aug 2017 | Views [344]
The city of bikes. It's the first thing you notice about the city, bikes, lots of bikes. Everywhere. The bike lanes are as wide as the car lanes and the car to bike ratio is pretty much 50/50. And it's not just for the adults, you see all ages on or ... Read more >

GERMANY | Friday, 25 Aug 2017 | Views [365]
Our next adventure was to take a number of trains and transverse the long way around to Denmark. Copenhagen is pretty much directly north of Berlin and there is a ferry, however train is sill the more efficient option. A pre booked taxi was waiting for ... Read more >

Berlin. A city steeped in a rich history. There was no way 3 days was ever going to do it justice. Not even 3 months could. But alas, we immersed ourselves in the city and were rewarded with some great experiences.
Firstly, our Airbnb accommodation ... Read more >

A long day on the train awaits. One of the biggest single day trips of our whole adventure. Approximately the distance from Brisbane to Sydney, in less than a day!
We were up nice & early and got an Uber to the train station. As usual the soldiers ... Read more >
FRANCE | Sunday, 20 Aug 2017 | Views [399]
Paris, the city of Love. How perfect that we can visit here on our honeymoon. I wish I could report that we had a wonderfully romantic time here, alas, the reality was somewhat different. The first afternoon was quite lovely, however after that Steph's ... Read more >
