Love hearing of your travels and the pictures are amazing. So JEALOUS! Sure beats the 9 to 5 drone.
Keep us posted on all the camel riding adventures…

What are we doing?
We’re on a three month trip halfway around the world, leaving on 3 June 2007.
We will travel on the Eurostar from London to Brussels. From there we will go through Germany and Belarus to Moscow using Deutsche Bahn trains.
Why not fly to Moscow? As the man in Seat 61 says, “Flying to Moscow to pick up the Trans-Siberian Railway is like agreeing to run a marathon then accepting a lift in someone’s car for the first mile… Don’t cheat..! If you’re going to go overland to the far East, do it properly, starting at London Waterloo and staying firmly on the ground.”
After a whirlwind stay there, we’ll hop on the Trans-Siberian Railway to Ulaan Bataar, Mongolia, where we’ll also have a short break.
But the journey’s only just begun at that stage. We’ll take the Trans-Mongolian route to Beijing, and travel around the country for close to a month. After that, we’ll travel down through Vietnam, then spend some time in Cambodia. In Thailand, we hope to relax and unwind before heading to Australia to see the folks (that part we’ll do by plane).
