This is farrrr to early to be up

Yes that's 4.09am.
Now I'm not sure what timestamp this thing will put on this post, but its always out by a few hours so lets just ignore that. It's very early. And I've been up a while already. After arriving in Christchurch and deciding I should go to bed and get to sleep early, I couldn't help thinking every distant sound I could hear was the beginning of the worlds largest earthquake. I don't know how people live here. So I'm rather tired now, even tho the bed/blanket/heater/pillow combo I had last night was excellent. Anyways, it's very early, my eyeballs are protesting the fluorescent lighting, and theres still 1 more hour to wait till I board. I could do with Sams gourmetzzz breakfast right now. See you later Family, its been awesome hanging with you all these past 12 days. More than awesome even. WAAA. Ok, and Mash and Claire, SEE Y'ALL SOON! and Sam, see you on the 15th...X

The Simpsons Castle ahoy Hi! Oban haha Otto the watchful dog Just turdsing up the beach... Looking for prawns Success!  Hey. Next destination please! We left for Scotland at 11 for the long drive north, following signs that actually said ‘The North’, which I thought was quite funny.   We drove past Sherwood Forest, which was near Robin Hood airport. Go robin hood.   We did get a flat tire which took about an hour to find a place to replace the back two, and luckily it was that close, there was a lot of driving where there was nothing for ages. Driving past ruined castles was pretty cool, just hanging on the side of the motorway. It seemed to start raining as soon as we went over the border haha, YAY! I   do like a bit of cloudy background. Also on the way in and out of Glasgow, they had these big signs above the motorways, the ones that generally say ‘WORKS AHEAD’ and all that, and they were saying things like, ‘why not car share?...

Handy. Checked out a few  more of the old Roman buildings and walls and decided to stop for a niceee iced coffee. You do iced coffee? Yeah? Cool, two of them thanks. And what ...

We booked this place a 20 mins drive from Levanto which is on the coast and close to Cinque Terre. The temperature in the mountains is juuuuust that little bit more bearable wth motorbike gear on hahah. Intermission Last year Greer and I were going to stay in Riomaggiore which is the first of the 5 little villages of 'Cinque Terre'. I'd seen a picture of one of them on a bus, we thought we would go to Pisa, Florence and Riomaggiore for the week, and so I googled, 'how to say Cinque Terre'. Keep in mind this is a place in ...
