1 week until take-off!!
The route we're taking is finalised, and it looks a bit like this....!!
Here goes...
Manchester to Bangkok
Train from Bangkok to Cambodia
Train from Cambodia to Vietnam
Flying from Vietnam back to Bangkok
Connecting flight to Surat Thani (From Surat Thani we can get a boat to Koh Samui and Koh Phang Nan)
Train to Kuala Lumpur (Malaysia)
Train from Kuala Lumpur to Singapore
Fly from Singapore to Sydney
5 months working in Sydney
1 month travelling up East Coast of Australia
Fly from Cairns to Christchurch (NZ)
Bus from Christchurch up to Auckland
Fly from Auckland to Fiji
Lay on the beach for a bit.
Fly from Fiji to Los Angeles
Buses and Trains from LA, via Las Vegas and Chicago to Orlando
Fly Orlando to New York
Fly home.
Try and get a job.
And somewhere to live.
So here's the latest:
We've had all our injections, and we have to start taking Malaria tablets a couple of days before we go (they cost £103!). All visas are sorted too, which is happy days!!
Got a busy few days coming up. Had leaving do part one last night, part two on Saturday, then the Irish boys are coming over on Sunday for a big one in Manchester!! My liver hurts already.
Really need to start packing stuff up to move out next week. Got a van for Monday and Tuesday (thanks to Mick and Dougie). Wednesday we are taking Matt's car down to Colchester, with his very heavy TV inside, then back up to Sheffield via Dave's parents' to drop stuff off there too.
1 week to go, and counting....
