Hi sorry it's been a while we have been busy bees. After a rather terrifying flight to Kuala Lumpur, we actually thought we might die!!!! It was so bumpy and rocky even the cabin crew weren't allowed out of their seats!! We then had a stressful transfer to our flight to Australia with some jobs worth quizzing us about why we're going to Australia (none of his business I thought) we just about made it to the plane. Luckily the rest of the journey went smoothly. ...

This was our last proper day with our group, we did some shopping then went for our last meal together (I can't wait to eat normal food in Australia).

The drive to the hotel was scary as the buses don't seem to worry about anybody else and coral the cars where ever the need them. After a heated d...

Hi (Ni Hao) We arrived in Shanghai after our first sleeper train experience!! And that it was, there are 6 beds in a cabin and we were sharing with 2 locals one of which got up at 6.30 and started chomping on his breakfast then rustling his carrier bag. Not impressed as he didn't get off for another 3 hours!!! We arrived at the hotel which was nice but only 2 rooms were ready so girls in one, boys in another!! 10 girls, 1 hour and 1 shower. We succeeded and of...
