The World Trip

We've created this weblog mainly to create a record of our "World Trip" starting in August 2008. In the meantime we will record progress as we count down towards our departure date - 31 August 2008.

So first to list the things we've achieved to date:

The broad travel plan is as follows

Canada - Montreal, Ottawa, Toronto, Niagra Falls

Florida - staying at the Disney Fort Wilderness Campground

Road trip from Las Vegas to San Francisco taking in Grand Canyon, the Colorado River, San Diego, LA (including Hollywood) and Big Sur

Hawaii - Oahu (Honolulu)

New Zealand - buying a camper van and spending at least six months touring both islands

This is as far as we have got to date in terms of putting the details together, from this point on the plan is much more flexible but the current expectation is.

Sydney - road trip to Melbourne

Perth - camping in Nancy & Robert's back garden!! plus a stay on Rottnest Island

South Africa - the Garden Route and Cape Town

Hopefully I'll get the hang of blogging slowly, will try to work out how to add some pictures and some more details of the trip before we go.

TTFN
