LA
Arriving in LA there were massive queues, we got a pic taken and finger prints at customs. We were waiting in the queue to get out of customs when a security guard checks our documents and points us towards the baggage inspection area, we were thinking 'hell no' we had heard about this at LA, it is supposed to be pain staking. But whe…

From the comfort of your computer you will voyage on a virtual tour of our earth - courtesy of me! Over the five and a half months we aim to see and do as much as these parts of the world have to offer beginning with Halong Bay (a World Heritage Site) and ending up on a paradise beach in Fiji - with all the craziness & peculiarities Thailand, Malaysia, Australia & NZ have to offer & various adrenaline fuelled activities such as sky-diving & the dreaded bungee jump!
Below is a rough itinery of our travels:
23 Jan to 7 April - Southeast Asia (Vietnam, Cambodia, Thailand, Malaysia & Singapore)
7 April to 2 June - Australia - Cairns to Melborne

Great blog Patrick! Keep up the good work. It will be sad to say good bye to snoopy but you did well to drive it through the rush hour in Sydney. I remember it is a pretty busy place at that time of day. Good on ye! Hope you get to do some skiing in NZ. Ali certainly enjoyed his time there. Are you thinking of doing both Islands? We think the KIWI experience is a brilliant idea. I like the hair. It suits you. Take care on your ongoing journeys. We are all missing you. Lots of love Mum & Dad.

Alright fella, hows life in Malaysia? Keep the photos coming, they act as good escapism for me doing my dissertation! Happy b-day for tomorrow, dont repeat what you did last year! JESUS!! No daddy to pick you up in Malaysia eh!
Im here in Guern until saturday enjoying home comforts and cooking and recharging my batteries before my last stint at uni! Ive had my last ever lectures- crikey, uni has gone quick.
It would be cool to chat, but i guess its easier said than done, can you not get a phone card that does cheap calls? I got them when I was in Oz.
Anyways, take care and try not to get mugged again, I would have thought Reading would have made you wise up!
Also, one last thing, mum says you look fat- some get some phyzz squared away or il thrash you silly when you get back!
Take care mate and stay safe
