And it's all over rover









The pack up, everyones feeling a bit worse for wear, but we get it done, then head out for a big lunch, then back for a snooze. And to start on all the left over booze, and have a BBQ. Somehow we completely destroy the house with our efforts, and Kevin gets a hilarious and well thought out contemporary dance piece in the lounge from Emma. Cos, she's here to entertain you now. Hahaha, and I do have it on video. I'll be bringing that out at your 30th. It's my last night, so I take Olive, their awesome dog from the glamour shots above, to sleep on my bed as she's awesome and will be my electric blanket for the night, plus I'm gunna miss her funny ways when I go. There's this little 'look at my bum' thing she does to people, its so funny. Waa, I want a dog.

The next morning, things get unbelievable, when first I manage to catch Sam for a Skype, woohoo! Then, I get a knock on the door and Kevin, bless him forever and ever and ever and ever, has gone out and bought everyone McDonalds for breakfast, complete with berry smoothy, and is delivering it to us in bed! While I get past my mind being blown and eat up, I realise what a smart move that was. Now I'm ready to get up and sort the house out, as I don't have to worry about feeding and watering myself anymore. We get sorted then off to the gorge! Launcestons finest attraction apart from Mrs DJ. Best menu I've seen in a long time. Home for some downtime, before we have to take Abbey and Mike to the Airport. Let the sinking feeling begin. Best to do these things fast, lest the tears get carried away. Bye Abbey and Mike! You guys have been amazing! Helping out with all the stuff and Abbey holding our scatteredness together during the ceremony and good old Mike doing a shitload more than my hungover ass during packup day. Excellent time seeing yas.  Also, getting to know Chloe alot better and meeting new peeps like Sara, Hannah and Alinta, just awesome.

I somehow manage to get everything into my little suitcase, take some last minute mics of Olive looking awesome, and try not think about me being next on the planeline! Indian banquet for tea and for the holiday it's like I've been having a competition with myself to see how much I could eat, and the banquet was the topper apparently. Oh yum. Oh yum. Oh yum. My turn at the airport, and we'll skip over that sad mess. I had SO MUCH FUN with you Emma! And Kevin of course. Its so fun catching up and even when we're being too lazy to make the most of a sunny day, sitting inside laughing about anything and everything, and listening to the same songs over and over, and eating SO MUCH leftover cheese, I'm still content cos gosh babe-o, you just so darn awesome. So so happy for you both, you're far and obviously incredibly suited, and I can't wait for the next time we're all together right! Vietnam next year!!! Sailing Club fun times. Greer you hear that! Love it. N You guys too. Bye Tasmania, bye Australia!!!!!!!!!!!

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?...

If you remember I came to Tarragona one other time, >AT CHRISTMAS< , when I was driving down the coast on my Christmas holidays.  Well this time we managed to find the amphitheatre, which juts so happened to be about 4 minutes from where we were staying for the night. 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 ...
