Off to Heidelberg to relax, joined my slugs on steroids.

GERMANY | Monday, 12 Oct 2009 | Views [829]

After yet another early start, we headed to the small, but pretty town of Heidelberg situated on a flooded river (again!).   The town is stunning with the river flowing through the valley and high mountains on either side. We had the afternoon to ... Read more >


Munich – mad dash for clean towels and underwear, and drinking beer to forget wet tents.

GERMANY | Monday, 12 Oct 2009 | Views [1392]

After leaving the mayhem and wet weather of Prague behind, we were excited to be hitting up Munich and the Beer Halls that night. However, not so exciting was the prospect of having to get back into the went tents, with wet sleeping bags and mats ... Read more >

Prague Day 2 and the sun is shining.

CZECH REPUBLIC | Saturday, 19 Sep 2009 | Views [619]

After our crazy introduction to Prague the day before, we woke up bright and early but not so bushy tailed (some not making it to breakfast). We made our way into Prague using public transport and started our big walk around the city led ... Read more >

Vienna and the search for Wiener - don't be fooled by Wiener World.

AUSTRIA | Sunday, 6 Sep 2009 | Views [842]

After the massiveness of Italy (and not just the sightseeing), we left Venice (without having to pack up tents, thank God) with its copious amount of drinking and enormous amounts of food about 4kgs heavier and headed to Austria. Getting ... Read more >

After have a blast in Rome enjoying being tourists in summer, we reluctantly (but quickly) left the campsite and headed north to Venice. Once again, it rained most of the way and Venice being marshland, our camping site had turned into a water ... Read more >

When in Rome...

ITALY | Wednesday, 12 Aug 2009 | Views [1026]

For me, that meant wearing what my mum would call my Roman sandals (purchased in Florence, mind you) because there was no dressing up in toga’s or gladiator get up for me! A little change of pace on our trip today meant that we got into Rome ... Read more >

ITALY | Monday, 10 Aug 2009 | Views [1288]

After leaving the rich and famous behind in Antibes, France, we got back on out coach and headed for Florence – with a side journey through Pisa. Stopping in Pisa meant the obligatory tacky photos – trying to push the tower back up, groups ... Read more >

Living the high life in the French Riviera.

FRANCE | Saturday, 8 Aug 2009 | Views [1355]

What more could you ask for,   arriving in Antibes on the French Riviera just as the sun is setting... ah, but back in to the tents after the luxury of a pillow and mattress for the last two nights. The fact that where we were was just gorgeous ... Read more >

I attract the rudest people in London.

UNITED KINGDOM | Wednesday, 17 Jun 2009 | Views [675] | Comments [1]

I’ve been in London for 5 days and I have discovered I have this uncanny knack for seeking out the rudest people in this bloody city. Perhaps it is my stupid need to talk to random people I come across, who knows; all I know is that today ... Read more >


Sunshine and Summer in the land of rain.

IRELAND | Wednesday, 10 Jun 2009 | Views [751]

Ireland has been having some very un-Irish-like weather of late. Yes, I’m talking about more than a few hours of sunshine! So what does a bunch of Aussies do in the land of rain when the sun comes out for the first time in 6 months? Bake themselves ... Read more >
