Well, leaving to Auckland anyway. Nan and Pa have been so wonderful as to drive me up to Auckland tomorrow to catch my plane on Thursday afternoon (mind you, they get a much diserved holiday in the Coromandel too XD)
The adrenaline is building up with the excitement of the anticipation of the day of take off approaching faster. OK, I don't think that sentence made any sense. My mind is jumping all over the place at the moment!!!
Anyway, adding to my list of must-dos and considering the major food conoseur I am (XD) here is another list of must-eats. So next to each country I'm visiting I will put atleast one type of food that I absolutely HAVE to try while there. I REALLY want to make the most of the my ONE day in each country. And in answer to those people that have been asking (u all know who you are): NO I WILL NOT BE JUST EATTING WEDGES AND CHIPS ETC...
London - Real English fish and chips (I'm in the mother country, so why not I say, let's see if we're better or worse than the homeland at cooking fish and chips).
Amsterdam - Only one thing that I MUST try - a hash cookie. XD
Munich - A stein of beer.
Venice - Real Italian pizza or pasta.
Lucerne - Something Swiss, any ideas anyone, I don't know anything about Swiss food but I'll find something when I get there and keep you posted.
Paris - A real French Crepe.
And to Alex at work, yes I accept your challenge to learn one swear word from each country I go to. I already have one for Germany: Shizen Cop (Shit head), courtesy of Josephine the German exchange student who came to Wairoa College. XDXD
To everyone else, if you have a blogger or google account you can leave comments at the end of my posts. So feel free if there's anything you wanna let me know or if you have a message for me. If you don't have a google or blogger account can always email me, I'll try and check my email when I can while I'm away, but due to cost issues for using a cyper cafe and 'cause I'm suc a tight arse (lol) I might not be able to reply. I won't right my email address here, those who will email me should already have it. Those on my Bebo friend list can also post comments there and I might upload some photos to Bebo and/or Ringo.
