Meeeee!! Well, my travel agent is still hunting around for airfares and whatnot for me, but I'm booked on the tour! Good to see someone else is doing it, wasn't sure how popular the tour would be given that its in winter...
But anyhoo, I'm Deb, 24, from Brisbane Aust, travelling on my lonesome! Where abouts are you from Kate?
Yeah great news that someone else is doing it!! I am going with my boy friend and we will be in Whistler beforehand so had no choice but to do winter contiki!
I'm 21 and my boyfriend Josh is 22 we are from Newcastle, Aust. I can't wait, this is my first contiki.

I am michelle and from brisbane. I did this tour in June this year and thought I would pop my head in and say hello and see if u guys wanted any questions answered about the tour before u go. I would be very happy to answer any questions.
Hi Des, good to see more people doing this trip! Sounds like an awesome holiday you've got planned - is the Eastern Discovery the one that ends up or starts in New Orleans? Would love to get there eventually!
Not long to go now, only 3 and a bit months to go!
Starting New Orleans ending in New York. I cant wait for New York, saving the best till last! Hopefully the USD gets alot better before we go! More money = more shopping Is this the only tour you are planning?

I know, the Australian dollar is shocking at the moment - 66 cents!! *sobs*. Sadly I don't think that will deter me from shopping though...
Yep, this is my only tour (*whistles innocently* My lovely boss already let me disappear overseas for a month earlier this year - when the US dollar was like 90 cents!!). I get into LA on the 18th and meeting up with a friend hopefully to run amok for a few days and then fly out a couple of days after we finish the tour. I figured I needed a quickie holiday to break up the year abit!
Lucky you're doing New York last - you can go crazy with the shopping then and not have to worry about weight restrictions or lugging your bag around!
