All photoed out.

The remainder of the photos are finally done! We've just added photos from the Grand Canyon, Las Vegas and Hawaii, so be sure to check them out.

Life has been very busy over the last month since we have been back (how time flies!) and we are already making travel plans for 2009. Over the next few months we hope to expand on our travel notes into the travel blog. Until then, you'll have to make do with the photos.

We're Back!

Well, we are now back in Australia after what has been an amazing year traveling overseas. How quickly it went!

We have managed to add some more photos from San Francisco, our drive from San Fran to LA along the Pacific Coast Highway 1 and Los Angeles. Of course there are still more photos to plough through from the remaining stops on the way home, but we'll let you know when they are ready.


Now that we are back and our lives are slowly getting back to normal, we look forward to catching up with you all soon.

A little bit of Canada

Aloha everyone,

We are in Hawaii at the moment and it's less than 2 weeks from coming home. Travelling has been pretty full on for the past few weeks, so adding new photos and updating any blog has been too hard.

But... we have now added photos from our Canada travels through Toronto, Calgary, the Canadian Rockies and Vancouver. As usual, the links are on the right column of the blog.

Will try and get the other photos from San Fran, Hwy 1 drive, LA, Grand Canyon and Las Vegas really soon, but might have to wait until we're back in Adelaide.

New York and Miami photos.

We are currently in Vancouver at the moment and having a great time staying with friends. Off to San Francisco tomorrow though which we are really looking forward to.

In the meantime, we have added our New York photos and pics from Miami Beach, the Everglades and Key West. Enjoy.

New photos from DC

We've just added some of our photos from Washington DC. New York pics are not far off. The link is to the right-hand side.

We are currently in Calgary and spent 3 days driving through the Canadian Rockies this week. Tomorrow we fly over to Vancouver. 5 weeks to go...

On the road in the USA…

Well as you may or may not know, we are currently in Miami in the US of A. The blog has been difficult to keep on top of as we have been on the go for over a month now. We have been making the effort to take notes so we can remember what we've been up to, so eventually we'll get it done.

In the meantime, we've added some photos from our 3 weeks in Turkey (click here) where we spent 5 days in Istanbul and then got on a hop on-hop off bus tour around the country. We visited Gallipoli, Troy, Canakkale, Pergamum, Ephesus, Selcuk, Koycegiz, Saklikent Gorge, Fethiye, Kas, Olympos, Egidir, and Goreme (Cappidocia). Also from Kas we did a day trip on a ferry over to the Greek island of Castellorizo which is where Anna's family originates from. We had an awesome time and would thoroughly recommend going to Turkey as there is so much to see and do, and a lot of diversity in the environments too as you will see in the photos.

Now the USA... On the 24th of September after a one day stop in London, we jetted off for Washington DC. There is surprisingly a lot to do in DC, and we were there for 3 full days and still didn't have enough time to see everything that we wanted to.

After that we spent a week in New York, which has been our favourite city ever visited. Now we know what the "I LOVE N Y" T-shirts are all about. (Yes, we did buy one for a whole $2). It really is that good - so much variety in the different boroughs and very multi-cultural, not to mention it is massive. I think 8.2 million people live in New York.

Miami has been ok. Its a bit cheesy and dirty, but there are certainly some good things about it. The beaches on South Beach (where we are staying) is really good. Yesterday we took a tour to the Everglades for some gator spotting on a massive Airboat. Tomorrow we head out for a full day tour down to Key West along the Florida Keys which should be great.

We'll get the photos up soon as we can, there are a lot of them!

Reading Festival YouTube videos

Just before we leave London to head to Turkey, I've quickly knocked up a some video clips from the footage shot on the camera last weekend at the Reading Festival. I only went on the Sunday, mainly to see Metallica (thus 3 videos of them alone), but there is also one of Feeder and Tenacious D.

For those of you who may be interested in seeing them, here they are.

Enjoy!
Matt

PS We're nearly done with the Prague blog (even though we went there in early June!), but with leaving London and traveling to Turkey on Monday, it's been hard to find the time to keep up. Must run now, we're off for farewell drinking before we leave in a couple of days. Bye!
