So, we left off in Leuven, Belgium… wow, that feels like ages ago! Been a while since the last update. Internet time has been rather limited lately. After Leuven, we caught our bus to Rock Werchter, a 4 day rock concert with an 80,000 person capacity, over 60 bands and super strong beer! Day 1: […]

After leaving Cardiff, we took the train down to Salisbury to catch the bus to Stonehenge. Upon arriving in Stonehenge, we spoke with a Druid who was telling us all about the festivities over the last few days. We setup our tent for the first time and prepared for 2 days of relaxing/camping. The first […]

After the 2nd period of the Canucks game, we headed to sleep in Belfast. Waking up a couple hours later to catch the early train north to Coleraine (activating our EuroPasses). From here we caught a bus to the Giant’s Causeway. After spending an hour or so here, we headed back down south to Belfast, […]

Well, after pulling an all-nighter watching game 6 (starting at 1am here) with a bunch of drunk Scot’s, we decided to go back into our room to get some shut-eye before our train back down to Glasgow. Well, after about 10 minutes in our 16 bed dorm, we decided to just leave right away. Maybe […]

After a three day rest up at Jim’s we got back on the rail and went up to York for a brief walk about and then made our way to Newcastle where we stayed at the Albatross hostel.   NC was quite nice, lots of bridges over the Tyne.  We continued with our debauchery by buying […]

“No, my son is also named Borth!” We left Stratford-Upon-Avon a couple days ago and headed into western/northern Wales. After a long train ride, we arrived in a small town called Borth, overlooking the ocean. We checked in at the hostel and headed down the road to a local pub called “Danny’s”. After a few […]

Our last few days in NYC contained a visit to the UN, Rockerfeller, Central Park Zoo and a Broadway Show (Jerusalem — amazing!). Central Park was a nice change from the big city… ‘earthy smells’. On the 4th, we caught a cab to Newark airport to catch our connecting flight to Toronto, then to London. […]

It’s a hell of a town! We arrived late yesterday evening in muggy Newark after 12 hours of plane travel and made our way to the Park Central hotel where we are staying for 3 nights. With suits on we explored a little, had a few beers and then hit the hay to rest up […]

Finally, June 1st has come, and I can not sleep despite the deprivation. Our flight leaves YYJ at 0645 and I am starting to get a little bit excited now. We will get into New York just after 2000 in time to watch the game. Not sure where we will be when the Nucks win […]

Well, everything is finally winding down. After a crazy night of working and pulling my hair out, I am finally done! DONE! Leaving tomorrow, 6:45am. Here we go! 1 day to go!
