Five, Four, Three, Two…

Aaaaaaaand, almost blastoff.

Dave and Laura at Invision

Looks like the trip is finally here! After a day of sleeping in and playing gameboy (at the SAME TIME!!), I spend the night throwing clothes at my Mum, shoving toothpaste and gauze into zip lock bags and wandering around my room reading ‘Europe On A Shoestring’. I am officially completely ready to go. I even got myself a box of Nacho Shapes to eat on the plane.

We have a 1pm flight to Bangkok, Thailand, where we spend one night. That night will most likely consist of me dragging Laura to see a drag show, and Laura dragging me to buy designer handbags. From there we get a midnight plane to Zurich in Switzerland, and then a plane straight to Hamburg, in Germany, where we will be staying with Laura’s family, Max and Hildegarde.

Most importantly, they made us a sign to wave at the airport so we will know who they are.

The sign has:

  1. The Union Jack
  2. Kangaroos
  3. Ayers Rock / Some Other Big Australian Rock
  4. The Southern Cross
  5. Our Names

So. Awesome. Plus it means we wont end up in a car with strangers in a country with a language we can’t speak. Everybody wins!

Anywho, wish us luck and leave us comments!
Dave.
