Ok. So in the spirit of all crazy people today was the day to head over to the shopping mall to get some forex sorted out. OH MY HO HO HO ..... So I work like less than 2 kilometers return from the mall where I do my forex, but boy did I forget that it was the silly season.
It took me more time driving the two kilometers and finding parking than what it took to do all the paperwork and legal rubbish to get money converted at the foreign exchange counter and pop in to one or two shops! I should have darn well grabbed my tackies and ran there it would be quicker!
Good thing it was Payday and Bonus day today! Cause the piggy bank did not have to go on a complete diet as usual ;-), weird how the currencies match up... and how one only realises the strenght of other currencies when you do forex. Everything is like 10 times more expensive using a number to number comparison!
So, now we have some spending money sorted and now it is just for the packing and travelling!
eY Peeps you guessed it. This is the followup trip for my expedition back in 2007. This time ... with a little bit of Winter!
Ok, some of you will say that aince I have done a trip through the major countries in Europe before. Why Would I want to do it again? The answer to that question is quite simple. Europe in Winter is a completely different experience from experiencing Europe in the Summer and after all the fun that was had in doing my Contiki trip through the Euoropean regions in 2007 (http://marsinlondoneurope.blogspot.com/) I thought it to be the right thing to experience this in Winter. This blog will be a collection of the journey through Europe and its leadup to departure... Be sure to check in frequently for new discoveries as we go..
