Where am I going?

Only a week to go. I thought I would just outline my plans for those who are interested and for me to check on when I'm away in case I forget.

I leave Heathrow on Thursday 15th November , arriving in Bangkok on Friday. I've got a day to myself and then I'm joining up with an organised trip . Its called 'Old Siam and the River Kwai + Koh Samet'. Link below which has all of the details of this trip.

Then I leave and fly to Sydney on 2nd December. I have 5 days to myself in Sydney before heading up to Cairns for another 4 days.

On Sunday 9th December I'm joining up on another Explore trip. Its called Australian Adventure and involves a trip down the East coast then flying in to Ulluru and trking up to Darwin. Its a month in total - mainly camping and bush camping. Should be amazing, although poisonous snakes and spiders exist I believe!! Here is the link.

On Monday 7th Jan I fly down to Adelaide and I have about 4 weeks to myself. I'm going to drive, cycle, train and boat around the south coast taking in the Great Ocean Road, Melbourne, Tasmania, Canberra and whatever else takes my fancy. I'll see how I feel .

Finally on the 2nd Feb I fly back to Bangkok and join up with another tour , this time with Exodus, called ' Thai Indochina Grand tour' Another tour taking in Cambodia, Laos and Vietnam. Really excited about this as should be a cultural change!!!

I plan to fly home on 2nd March but have an open ticket which means I can fly home anytime in the next year. So we will see how life is at the time.

see you
