Re: waiting

Buy an international charger for your phone if you stop through Hong Kong or Singapore , & buy a Big M before you go , you won't find them in England!

Re: Yo from Paris

Soudns Awesome, hope you feels better soon! I'm going to compile all your threads about your trip into one thread so you can keep us all updated on it, as you progress and post in teh same thread so it's easier for us to keep track will pm you the thread link once it's all done.

You can also then look back and be like WOW I did all this stuff! Sort of like your own Blog, with the occasional troll + Return home soldier comment. <3

Cheers, BR

Well today was an awsome day in barceloa went to the markets saw some massive flounders and some scary fish they were selling almost every thing in food wise after that we went to the beach well can't say it was a proper beach like home was mor like a rocky beach but any way I swam in the mediterranean sea was like really nice temperature (wow now I'm sounding like my tour manager) except I forgot to put on sun screen so now I'm a little bit burnt :flamer: and wear bord shorts. off to a flamingo show tonight then proberly have a small night tonight then off to nice tomorrow morning /French riveaira can't spell have to say Spain is one of the places I'll be coming back to if I'm over here again :) nice country and nice people iv seen like a few gipcys (can't spell) around but not many oops almost forgot did a walk around the gothic architecture in town that was awesome to see. The one thing that I like about the Barcelonan people is that they have a cesta in the afternoon from 2 -4pm I think which nothing opens for that amount of time is an awesome place :banana: :banana: well talk again when I can

Glad youre having fun. When (if) you get to amsterdam dont forget to buy a brownie and a small bottle of 'King of Absinthe' for about 20euros.

London tube indeed is good, while the paris one is good although near the centre, the outer metro trains do have brutal door indeed lol. Did you see the train on proper car-type wheels? I hope you went to Moulin Rouge...otherwise man.....pitty.

If your trip involve Rome prepare yourself for lots of walking followed by lots of blisters lol. Roads arent the best and people are worse than cars when it comes to walking across the road lol. Besides the usual attractions you must see the trinity fountain!

I know of a good pizza place near the main train station...about 10-15min walk...if you want to know :)

If you end up in Geneva prepare to spend thrice as much. Never paid 30euros for a large pizza before lol. The must see atraction is the cable cart ride 1380m up to Mont Saleve (10euros). On a nice day you may see paragliders.

Enjoy!
