Round The World Trip '07
In and around World
Well me and Jay have decided to go travelling, as its something we've both always wanted to do and always talked about. The ticket is booked for the 25th of January 07 and we will be returning (if as planned) on the 4th/5th of June 07, just before my birthday! We are visiting Thailand, Laos, Malaysia and Singapore, the flying into Sydney and travelling to Melbourne, 'doing' New Zealand and then onto the U.S.A where we will be visiting Los Angeles, San Francisco, New York, Orlando (if the money holds out) and Detroit. We will also be making a detour over the border to see Jay's mum, dad and brothers in Toronto..
