Arrived at the port of Kuala Besut at 5.30 (again!) to get the boat over to the island. There are no ATM's or phones on the island its so small! We got a speedboat over there which took half an hour.  We found a nice beach hut (no air con though!) which was right on thebeach.  When i put pictures on, you can see the view that we had - it makes up for the stifling heat there! On the first day we did nothing but relax, its difficult to sunbathe though becau...

Arrived in KL after a 12 hour flight from Amsterdam at 5.30am on 23rd April - flight was ok, it goes quickly whenyou have movies and TV on demand!  When we got near to KL there was loads of lightening, which was pretty cool to watch - from a distance! We got a hostel which was excellent, and pretty much fell asleep straight away even though we shouldn't have!  we still managed to sleep that night though. The next day we got our tickets for the bus to the ...

So here we are back in Amsterdam after one month around Europe, 11 countries, 18 cities and 124 hours (about 5 days?!) on the train!  It has been well worth it, apart from the blisters on our feet! We spent the last couple of nights in Berlin - it is an amazing city, so much history and things to see.  The first thing we did was go to the German History Museum so that we could learn about all the sights we were going to visit.  We ended up spending 3 an...

So we've had a day in Prague now, and I have to say it is beautiful! Apparently it was 32 degrees today aswell, it's been so hot!! We went to Prague Castle, wandered around the old town and the new town (which isnt really new, it was established in 1345) and wandered by the river. I think we actually walked around for 7 hours, so we're taking a rest now - there'll be a lot of walking in Berlin aswell! Prague is very clean, the buildings are beaut...

So, we are in Prague at the moment - just arrived this afternoon. We left Budapest for Bratislava and arrived there at 4.00pm. The hostel we were staying in was excellent, and we met an English couple there. They were Liverpool fans, so we spent the night at the pub watching the football... we did see the city by night aswell though!! Bratislava is very nice, but a lot smaller than I thought it would be. It's also not as 'old' as I thought it would ...
