Hey guys,
Just arrived in Galway. A missed her flight, but she'll be along on Saturday. I caught up with some friends in London which was great! I did little else since i needed a rest from the sightseeing. Did make it to the National Gallery which was amazing though!!

Can't wait to start job hunting and house hunting tomorrow! Yay! It's great to finally dump my backpack! It got to 21kg with all the new gear i had to buy & my back is killing! Will defo have to find someone to right that for me!

Howdy ho all! Hope youse are happy, not experiencing post-Contiki depression or anything nasty like that.

Being a bit thick, I don't know a lot about on-line forums and stuff. However, it sounds mighty like a "chat room" or the like, which my Mum told me were dangerous and not good, back in my formative years. I have decided to cast aside her warning. Talk about living on the edge eh?

Anyway, I'm back in London, til sat when i will fly to Galway and meet up with Brides. Can't wait!! And it will be exciting to earn some dosh.

Hope i don't miss that plane as well. For the record, the one Brides mentioned was the first I've missed in TWENTY THREE years (admittedly i never flew til i was 20, but hey), and it was my brothers fault. Luckily it was bloody cheap.

Thanks for setting this forum up Emily! You're a bit of a star.

Enough ramble, hope you're all great and thanks for a great trip! Keep in touch eh. And don't forget to come and visit Bridie and I in Ireland. When we have a house. And if i ever make it to Ireland.

A

Hi All,

Me and Mak arrived back safely in Melbourne on Wednesday. Had a lovely few days in Singapore with my brother and his family. Back to work on Monday Frowner

Mak caught that flu that was doing the rounds of the bus so we spent our last day in London trying to see a doctor (Good Luck to you guys living over there if you get sick) She ended up having a pretty bad ear infection as well but she made it through the flight no probs.

Anyways, better go and unpack (yes i've been slack) Hope everyone is well and keep in touch. Feels strange not seeing you guys everyday (espicially when the 3 days we spent in London we kept running into people)

Luv from Wendy

P.S. A - I hope you make it to Ireland eventually

Yo Yo Yo! what's going on everybody? Hopefully you're all doing alright. Here I am at work doing anything but work. hehe. Got home to the "states" on Sept 26th. Flight was alright. However, my heart was aching as I left the bus that morning. I remember it like it was yesterday.

Anyways, you all please make sure you let either myself or raquel know when you're in the states. Even if you're remotely close, please do.

I miss everyone. I love my aussies, kiwis, and south africans...hehe, much love

Luis (louie)

Well well well....Here I am sitting at my computer on a "long" weekend here in Canada. We celebrate "Thanks Giving" today. It is a tradition to provide thanks to all the good things we have in life. This may sound sappy, but I would like to thank all of you for making two weeks in Europe more then I could have ever asked for! I was upset the morning that I had to leave early and I couldn't proparly say goodbye to everyone, however I have learned that you should never really say "goodbye". Anyways....food is waiting. Thanks to everyone! And if anyone is ever in Toronto (otherwise known as TO) make sure to give me a call. I will take care of you well you are here.

P.S - When are we all swapping pics?

Talk to you all soon. Ciao Ciao

Heya!! Smiler

Well I'm still talking about Europe every day at work majorly depressed Confused about being back in Perth and have told all friends and family Matt and I ARE MOVING BACK to Europe end of next year after a visit to California!!... It was sad... we refused to get out of Contiki mode and did Torpedo's and drunk Steins for four days after we got home before work.. and had a BACKTOBERFEST haha..

Reality has now sunk in... 5th day back at work tomorrow but on the bright side its Friday tomorrow so we can relive some more drinking memories!

Hope everyone enjoyed the rest of their travels and if your still travelling... We are jealous of you!! Although its heating up for summer here.

Love to all,
Matt and Kylie xxxx
