    Hi again, second time traveling with contiki (solo again). Did a 10 day tour before… wasn’t a great experience, and was too short! Hoping for a better time the second time around Wink<!--graemlin:;)--> . I plan on arriving on the 30th, so is anyone down for a self touring of London before Contiki takes over?

    Hi! I’m booked in, also going solo, also arriving on the 30th. Get in early so will have that day to kill before I take myself to see Wicked that night. No plans for the Saturday yet either. Staying at the Imperial. Let me know if anyone wants to go exploring together!

    for those who’d like to get as much information possible about the trip, I found this today: http://www.travelpod.com/trave…stravels/1/tpod.html

    great information about the European Whirl and you sort of get to learn about other optional activities you could do that isn’t listed on Contiki’s website like, skydiving in Swiss Alps, check out the live sex show in Amsterdam and so on.

    Hi Peter, I’m Z. I think it is the Royal National hotel.
    So if you all don’t have anything planned for the eve of May 1st, we should all go and do something after the 7pm check in at the cafe. It’ll be a nice to get to know the people we’d be spending sooooooo much time with ;-)

    I’m pretty tense about the weather actually – I have visions of it being freezing (ie anything below about 15 degrees celsius is freezing to me!). Coming from Brisbane where even on the coldest days a cardigan will do, I can’t say I’m looking forward to it hahaha – especially with 6/7am starts!!

    Oh yea it also can get a bit chilly on the coach, so be prepared!
