The Big Party

Its time I made a contribution here. Last night was the big send off party and it's all getting rather real. We had an amazing time - I have now got a croaky voice from shouting too much, and holes in my shoes from dancing too much. Can't wait for take-off now!

The countdown begins... 19 days to go!



Welcome to the first of what we hope to be many blogs keeping you guys up to date on our travels: where we are, what we're doing and how many people jorn has managed to insult while trying to converse in the local language!




We all have access to this blog so you will hear all our individual veiws and thoughts we have about the trip of a lifetime we are about to undertake, so we hope that it will be interesting and much, much better than a post card.




We fly out on the 2nd feb from london heathrow to rio de janerio, leaving 12.15pm uk time and landing in the party capital of the world at around 10pm local time. How long this makes the flight given time diff, im really not sure! But what i am sure of is that it will be my first long haul flight, so im sure ill be like a child, while the others have done it all before and know how boring it will be!


We are also on twitter: @worldtravels10 so for less words and more pointless comments about what we are doing then follow us on there. Also u may actually get a postcard when we feel like being all nostalgic and remembering the good old days of paper and pen.


For now, i shall be off, to laze around and look at pictures on the web of where we will be in 19 days time! GOD I CANT WAIT!
