6 months to go

semi-overcast 22 °C

So yesterday was six months till the start of my trip and also the day the RLWC organisers put out the kick off times for the games they are all on the website if you want to see them but I'm rather pleased with them as most of the games are in the day so it will be easy to get back to the city

Anyway a few weeks ago when the Rugby league rep games were on I was watching the NZ Haka and then the Samoan Tongan game and decided I wanted to experience the atmosphere of the Haka and Samoans in a group game so I've changed my plans from having 5 nights in Cardiff to only having 3 with a train trip to Warrington to watch the New Zealand vs Samoa game then back to Cardiff in the morning it will be good

So now I know when the game is in London I finally got to book a plane trip back to London from Paris which the end of the contiki tour I'm doing...I'm on British airways early in the morning so I make it back to London before 10 and the game starts a little bit later in the arvo so that should be exciting

Till next time may the best team win RLWC

250 days to go

sunny 33 °C

So this countdown started at 365 days it's now down to 250 and just watching the storm boys in London for the WCC is making me jelious and slightly scared all in one...jelious cause I wish I was over there now and scared cause I can see how cold it is in their photos so I'm thinking I have to be wayyyy more prepared then them lol I do have longer to prepare though so I should be ok

So on the 26th of Feb I make my last payment for my contiki tour then it is all payed off then I only have to save for spending money which I'm totally excited about

Was thinking about doing a Spa in the UK and found one in Bath (bit ironic isn't it lol) anyway this is the link so if you wanna look click here http://www.thermaebathspa.com/treatment-prices/spapackages/package/thermae-harmony I'm still thinking about it but it would be kinda cool

Any that's it for now ill update soon
