  1. Friday 17th April

    Two mistakes in quick succession, am I a slow learner or what? 26 years married life and I should have learnt to budget double the cost of any accessories I want. It goes like this....I realize the bar ends mirrors I have are to wide, find an better option and decide to buy them while in Spain instead of Mail order with freight customs and customs agent costs. So I make contact with the bike shop CafeMoto in Malaga Spain and order the bits. Today we Visit the bike shop, drool over some of the Aprillias, ...

  3. Week 2 in Germany- 16 April 2009 (IKEA)

    16th April 2009

    OK Kiddies, hands up who has heard of IKEA? It is like a giant Swedish Briscoes, and it is BRILLIANT! So brilliant that I actually went there on both Tuesday AND Wednesday. The Tuesday was to be a tourist. The Wednesday was an attempt to make my room look less like a prison cell and more like a livable space. I came home with:
    1x table cloth
    1x cushion
    2x cushion covers
    1x vanilla candle
    1x Cyprus tree
    The candle is to try ...

  4. Road to Albania - day 7 - Kosovo

    We wake up in the morning to another beautiful day in Albania.





    As we pack up and ready to head out we don't even consider if it will be difficult to get to the road. After all, the small off road trip to the camping site was not so hard. However, heading out proves to be a bit more difficult, and Mrazik ends a bit stuck.

    13 April 2009

    So, it’s Easter. The time of new beginnings, pretty flowers, easter eggs and general greenery. Not all greenery is good, however. I found this out the other day whilst walking in the park. Curious as to what was behind a stone, I knelt down in the foliage to take a look. This was a mistake. This foliage was not grass as we know it, was not harmless food for cows and such. Oh no. Instead, this grass decided it wanted to take a bite out of ME. And that was how the stinging ...

  6. Can't Wait!

    Can't wait to get out to NZ (Dunedin) in October. Had enough of this over crowded little nanny state. Do the Police leave you alone there or do you get treated like a rapist for having a loud can and a small no.plate?

  7. The next step....

    I decided that since the feeling had well and truly returned to my ass that I would go for another ride. So yesterday the roads being somewhat quiet I decided that I would brave the open road and go for a ride.

    I was quite scared and but it was all good! It was quite nice to just cycle along and take it all in. I can understand now why people like cycling and riding! My ass did go numb again but I didn't care! I really didn't want to go home! Is this what it's like!? ...
