Alright. Back int he land of Czech. The flight was bloody awful even though it only took an hour but still at least I'm here safe n sound. Only thing is, getting back to Prague's a bit like going backwards. Not sure if I've made the right decision there. Hmmm, we'll see how it pans out. Can't be arsed to speak to anyone in my hostel today so I slunk off to the cinema this afternoon. Watched T3. Quite good. Not mind blowing though. As for tomorrow, well I've seen all the Prague I wanted to see. Might check out a museum or two though, they're not open Mondays which is a pain in the arse but only when its Monday. Nice hostel though. Got in last night and properly crashed out. Might go for a siesta now actually. Toodle pip.

How do. Pretty mad one this. Im in Venice. Just walked into the airport and got a ticket to prague. Just had a quality weekend with Con and Phil (Con arriving eventually after missing his flight due to traffic on the M1) but Phil and his shop have just left. Cons knocking about the airport but couldnt check in at the same time as us. Might see him in a bit. Bloody good weekend though. And now back to Prague. Hope someones got a room for me and Stu and Dawn should be there too. Anyway, need to go now or Ill be sleeping in the business lounge (Italians dont seem to mind if at least one of you has a card to get in all your mates can walk in too! Bonus.... nice one misty.) Anna I hope you got back safe. And Dawn and Stu Ill ring you tomorrow. Ciao Bella

Just checking that the subscription thing's working. I've a feeling its down again. Meeting Con and Phil in Venice on Friday. Should be a good time. Aftter that I think I might head back to Prague just for a coupleof days to catch up with Stu and Dawn again and eat some more troll hand burgers. Right I'm off to do some washing as my whole wardrobe stinks as per usual. Dirty travelling scum!

How do. Been out of touch for a while and haven't done a bit of what the last blog said I was going to do. Instead, met Niall in Zagreb (Irish bloke) and got talked into going to see Massive Attack. So I had to stay in Zagreb a couple more days. Massive Attack were cracking though (Lucy and Ben also joined us, Southampton) and after that came to Slovenia. Stopped in the capital for about an hour and got a bus straight to Bohinj (Niall's suggestion). That place was brilliant. Utterly beautiful. (Stu and Dawn, if you're still in Bled go to Bohinj. I'm in Ljubljana today but going back to Bohinj camping tonight... Sunday... for a night... After that back to Ljubljana for a bit until the 14th... got to meet up somewhere as I want me T-shirt back!)

Anyway, I got to Ljubljana and rang Ben (moon) who kindly offered to put me up for the night. Turned out he was on his way to take Anna to the station so she's stayed here another night and we're off to Bohinj today.

Phil! thanks for sorting out the hotel, I take it I'm supposed to check in on the 15th? Well, I hope's you're all well and good.

Ciao

Alright eeeeeeeverybody. Sorry for not writing for time but I just haven't felt like it. I overstayed my welcome in Budapest somewhat. The city took it's revenge and decided to depress me. Sacked it off eventually though and I'm now in Zagreb. It's miles nicer. Pretty quiet and just better (in my humble opinion) and also a lot cleaner. (sorry I missed you in pesky buda anna etc but I had to get out of there)

Despite Zagreb's bonusses, I'm not sticking around. I'm going to Zadar tomorrow for a bit of snorkelling. Work this one out, it takes three hours on the bus and 11 hours on the train????????? hm Think I'll be bussing it. The bus also takes you past a national park with 16 turquoise lakes inter linked with waterfalls. I would stop but you can't swim in them and I need a large water body to soak my weary, capital city-dirtied body in. Plus I haven't been traipsing a snorkel and mask all this way for nothing!!!!! I might stop over night at the lakes on the way back though.

Despite teh seven sweaty hours it took to get here on the train, the journey was cool. Went past Lake Balaton which looked PACKED! and was kind of glad to be passing it over. (What was it like The Raunds Massive?.. didn't you stay there for a bit) Got talking to a finnish couple aswell, ernie and vernie (i thought I was in the muppets!) who were really cool. Learned about Helsinki, and it sounds a bit like a colder Manchester... haha, still want to see it though. So I got a hostel with those two. It's a bit of a dive but only being used for kipping so that's fine.

Personal msgs:
Con: I need to play golf soon. And I hope you're doing okay. Give my love to Clare

Moonata: Is the offer of a bed still up for a night or two. My bro's going to be in Venice on the 15th and I'd like to meet him. How long is the train from Lub...
not a clue how to spell it... lejlana?

Bell: What's your route and dates going to be down to Dubrovnic?

Jess: You got an e-mail but I just thought I'd mention you anyway.

Phil: Let me know about Venice soon as I can get a flight back from there for about 60 quid if I know in the next couple days about the meeting up viability!

Mum: When you back from SA, when you orf to Italy and ignore any msgs on your mail when you get back.

DNO:How's it going pal? We're going to have to do this route together some time. It's cheap as and you'd love it!
