Bees, Bushfires, a Baby and Beautiful People
Friday, January 26th, 2007(and also more information about my journey, the why’s, hows etc. for those who have asked)
(and also more information about my journey, the why’s, hows etc. for those who have asked)The highlights from a few days in Adelaide were sleeping a lot and playing the accordion I spotted on the shelf in Wilsons organic food shop! What a treat, but I had forgotten a few tunes already! I couldn’t get a bus to Alice Springs until 27th January so it was more WWOOFing for me. (more…)
After a bit of a ‘westerner comfort’ evening with the lovely Jacqui (who is working in Ho Chi Minh at a local orphanage) – eating Lasagne (CHEESE!) and sitting on a sofa eating apple pie and watching a film! it is time to say goodbye to Ho Chi Minh City. I didn’t feel like I had time to get a real feel for the place – it is more chilled than Hanoi but more touristy and western. 
So onwards to another train, it seems I am getting better at this travelling lark and each new challenge seems easier and less stressful than the last…Anyway the train was leaving at 11pm and I didn’t want to get a taxi (too much extra carbon for me!), so I mapped out my route, walked it backwards and went for it. It was totally fine and no problems at all.
