Unfortunately this will be my last post for about a week because I’m off on holiday tomorrow for a little trip through central Europe! It’s going to be a busy week as we plan to take in London, Paris, Venice and Rome including a trip to DisneyLand! For the curious (and my own edification) here’s a little graphic of where we’re going and a small itinerary:
- London 15th - 16th
- Paris 16th - 18th (via early morning Eurostar train)
- Venice 19th - 21st (via overnight train - 14hrs!)
- Rome 21st - 23rd (returning to Newcastle International)
I’ve personally never been to Venice or Rome so it’s going to be an exciting trip I hope. I don’t know a word of Italian which should make things even more interesting! I’ve loaded up with over 3GBs worth of memory for my camera so should take a fair few pictures along the way which I’ll upload here when I get back. Last year I borrowed a Blackberry to post updates but no such luck this time - if you need to get in contact with me tough luck! See you on the other side 
Incidentally I’m 20+1 years old today. Doesn’t time fly when you’re having fun! (Note the ironic hint here).

Should have asked, could have loaned you a BlackBerry again
Happy Birfday David.
Enjoy the trip.
Hi! Sounds like an awesome trip…you must post photos when you get back. 3 gb is a lot. I was gonna post to see how you were and ask some advice on a computer matters. Incidentally, when does your job begin?
Happy Birthday also!

Happy belated Birthday.
Really a nice trip plan!!!
hope it was nice and fun.
I’m italian and completly in love with Venice (even if a live in Milan), i just hope Italian trains didn’t break your timetable too bad, they used to be late.
Ok, i’ll go back reading your blog, bye!
Thanks for all the birthday greetings - much appreciated!! I just got back from Rome and am now trying to catch up with things - a week seems a long time to be disconnected from the wired world! More soon…
