The Plan

The blog is set up. Not much on it at the moment. I will try keep you guys posted as we go, but please do not blame me if this does not happen regularly as i'm not sure how close it'll be between the internet cafes..! Will do my best though - promise!

I'm off on the 30th of August. There's two of us flying out of London that day but as expected we've managed to book ourselves on different flights, so gonna have to play some professional hide and seek at the airport in Germany. Could be fun..?! Hopefully, Phil will have remembered that we're on our way and will pick us up. Will spend a couple of days at Phil's place, and then the adventure begins on the 1st of September when we fly to St. Petersburg, Russia. And this time, believe it or not, we've all managed to book ourselves on the same flight, so are already making remarkable progress on the planning front..! Great. Will catch the Trans-Siberian Express and make our way through Russia, Kazakhstan and China, with stops in Moscow, Astana, Almaty, Urumqi, Xian, Beijing and Hong Kong.
