Everyday is a new adventure

Tall one and Small one met in New Zealand, in the kiwi fruit orchards of Tauranga back in early 2009. From there spent 2 years travelling across Australia together; penniless in Sydney, 15 hour shifts in a Blue Mountains Hotel, picking Blueberries with spiders in Coff's Harbour – watermelons with snakes in Charters Towers, pushing their campervan, 'Tony' through the flood waters of Miriam Vale, breaking down in every state through the outback, and working and drinking side by side in an Irish Pub and Backpackers in Melbourne.

Across the globe through Vietnam, Thailand & Moscow before spending a year in Canada; through the seasons in Toronto, 35 hour Greyhound buses across the provinces, dog sledding in the Rocky Mountains, shovelling 3 foot snow in the Yukon, Kayaking in Haida Gwaii, sharing a beer among the icebergs of Newfoundland and spotting whales in Nova Scotia.

Before returning to New Zealand in Oct 2012 to live the beach life in Mount Maunganui, experience the earthquakes of Wellington and finally getting married on Te Ahumairangi Hill, Wellington in Oct 2013. Finally on 2nd Oct 2013 they embarked on an 80 day honeymoon back across the globe, through the south island of New Zealand, up to Singapore, Cambodia, Laos, Thailand and finally through north India before returning to Ireland, where they are now attempting to make a home in Galway. Many miles travelled together, many sights shared together, everyday is the start of a new adventure.

Tuk Tuk Ping Pong!!!

Khao San road
The bhoys
Baby bear
Paddy pulls!!!
Paddy awoke to a Big Mac, that bhoy loves his Big Mac's.
Green curry time (",)
Two mad girls we met in London, from Derby, love there pints and football. Hate the sheep shaggers from Nottingham Forest....lol.
Paddy pissed. You'll see lots more like this...lol.
Well we all got here safe and sound. Our bags never got here till last night which was a pain in the ass. Paddy however was fine, as his bag was the only one that made it on time. He thought it was very funny as we had no clothes to wear. He was nice enough to supply a clean pair of boxers to us each day. However I got the runs from the salad in the Big Mac and Paddy did not require his boxers back....lol.
We are off to Chiang Mai this evening. The train was full so we are taking a bus, 11 hrs, should be fun!! Bangkok is ok. The smell is very strong though, and no not the smell from my runs but the smell in the air. All day u get offered Tuk Tuks and all night you get offered Ping Pong, we have declined both so far.
Gonna go now as its 12:40 and we've not had a pint yet. Thats very strange for Paddy!!
p.s our phones won't work so thats why we have no sent any text messages to you all.
