Sight-seeing

Sunday, May 20th, 2007

Today we did the sight-seeing thing and hopped on the big bus tour, we went from the London Eye (which we still haven’t been on because it was hot but cloudy today) through Fleet Street and the commerce business part of town, across the London Bridge and back across the Tower Bridge, which are apparantly different bridges but every time an outsider talks about “London Bridge” the fancy one with the towers they actually mean “Tower Bridge”.

Jet-lag

Sunday, May 20th, 2007

Hopping along for now

Wednesday, April 25th, 2007
It's ANZAC Day today. I was looking forward to a 7 hour time-and-a-half shift with one of my favourite girls, but alas, I'm stuck at home on the couch. Yesterday I rolled my ankle on shift, drove the kid home, went ... [Continue reading this entry]

Too much or not enough?

Sunday, April 22nd, 2007
I found myself with four free hours this morning, after a shift was decreased, so what else should I find myself doing but trying out my new suitcase. I took all the clothes I want to take with me and ... [Continue reading this entry]

Lost and found

Wednesday, April 18th, 2007
I think I've just lost a couple of days because of work and everything, but a few important things have been accomplished. Best of all, I went into Backpacking Light, otherwise known as outdoors.com.au, and got an awesome price for ... [Continue reading this entry]
