Hi Paul! My name is Eve, I'm 27 and from from Adelaide, Australia. I'm also going on the Sept 14th trip and I can't wait! What were your plans within a couple of days just before the tour? I was looking at hanging around London..... might be good to get to know some people before we're on the tour?

Hey Eve! It's good to see someone else all booked up on this tour it will be a blast! I can't wait. Oh plus if you look at Sept 12th tour Elisa is booked also, She just got the dates wrong. I am staying at the Royal National the night before and the night after and am meant to be in Liverpool the 3 or 4 days before but may change that to later in my trip so will probably be staying with my friend in Shepards Bush. I here there is lots of Kiwi's and Ozies there.

If you want you can email me at maximus04_99@hotmail.com and we can keep in touch until the trip!

Good to finally start meeting fellow travlers on the same trip!

Paul

NIce to know so many people will beon this trip! My fiance (32) and i (27) are joinging you as well Smiler We are from California and very much looking forward to the tour. We are spending a few days in Vienna before the trip and we'll be around most of the day of the 13, so i'm sure we will all have time to get together and meet.

There is a tour meeting the night before, too, i think. God knows i will be far too bleary-eyed in to make much of a conversationalist when we leave London the next morning Smiler

HI! I'm pretty sure most people will be in the Royal National the night before, so if there isn't a tour meeting i'm sure there will be an improvised one. It would be good to meet a few people and break the ice before the tour starts. But otherwise it will be good times anyway. Oh and my TA tells me the tour was a sell our about a month ago, so should be lots of us.

Hey Guys! I haven't been online for a while, its good to see there's a few more people on the tour who are registered!! Yeh your right paul, I'm touring solo - a good way to meet new people I say! Is everyone getting a bit more excited about the tour? Just over a month to go.... I leave Australia in just over 2 weeks to start my holiday and I can't wait - How is everyone else doing?

Hi Everyone,
My husband Wayne (29) and I (27) from Regina, SK, Canada, will be on this tour. We just got all of our Contiki documents this morning and we are sooooooooo excited!!!! We have never been to Europe and we are looking forward to the whole experience. We are arriving in London on the morning of September 12 (6: 25 a.m.) and we are planning on dropping off our luggage at the Imperial Hotel (we booked an extra night) and touring London for the day...So if anyone is interested in meeting when we get there just let me know...
