Yuk! 4.45am wake up call was disgusting, we did however manage to not make any noise, it was so cold in the common area I think because they have plastic roof and it has holes in the sides. Brrrr! Quite a few people from our hostel doing the crossing and the bus was full also. I think I’m underestimating how busy this crossing is going to be now that it’s open and the snow has pretty much gone up there. It was just over an hour to the car park where the cr...

How last night I didn’t strangle that man I do. not. know. He was horrendous! Then at 6am this morning he got up after he had been coffing his guts up for about an hour to then come back into bed and sighed loudly and yawned loudly like a child. Are you f***ing serious?! Shut. Up. Then he would snore. Then coff. Oh... my.... god.... what an absolute ass hole. 7am we pulled ourselves out of bed and got up to get ready, you know we put our stuff out ready the n...

Finally a good sleep, we slept long last night! It must have been the wine that didn’t wake us up until 8am this morning. Lovely having a late pick up at 11am it meant that we didn’t have to rush around! We walked over to the bus station with our bags after Ellie managed to zip here up. The mornings entertainment as always is watching her try to do that bag up haha. She had the munchies today, I knew because she hadn’t stopped talking about pies and cr...

Wonderful night sleep!! The mattress was foam I’m sure of it, and only four of us in the room, with no snoring or farting! Woke up just before the alarm though, but it was 8am so not such a bad feeling! It’s Ellie’s birthday!!! She FaceTimed Home and didn’t cry.... stronger than me haha! We were on the road at 8.45am, not far this morning to blenhiem drop off. Let’s hope the weather is a little better this afternoon than it is now because we have 1...

Yuk! Another early morning, but this time no late night/early morning arrivals to play about in their bags at 1am! Just us at 6.30am haha! We were extremely quiet though, Ellie sprayed the deodorant in the room which made an absolute racket. We were out on the bus stop by 6.45, the air was so fresh!! The sun was shining - lovely day (to swim with dolphins!) yaaaah! Our driver seemed very new, and I wasn’t expecting such a high pitched feminine voice to come...
