Hi everyone! So the journey is over. We are both now back home on the Wirral and in the cold and wet of the UK. It's not really that bad though! Having met my mum in Canada and had an interesting and fun time travelling around from Toronto, Ottawa, Quebec and Montreal we set off to go to New York city! Had a great time there, despite flying on the smallest plane I have ever seen. We went to see a Broadway show, had a tour of the whole city and went to see the ...

The rest of California was pretty good. Went to San Diego for 5 days which is a really nice city. Fairly european in it's feel and clearly a large Mexican and Spanish influence.

The weather was great and the exposure to their culture was a real experience. A great 10 days topping up the tan, though it was very odd once Sam left! Haha. Never thought I would say that, bu...

Hello. It has happened. We both managed to fling ourselves out of a pod 134 metres above a river! It was SO much fun and such a rush! Brings to an end our brilliant stay in Queenstown. Loved every minute here. Off to Christchurch tomorrow to watch the Crusaders play the Highlanders.... The journey continues!.....
