lol I’ll stick to water
<!--graemlin::)--> but don’t you think that it would be fun to check out at least a couple of places like that though, don’t ya think?
I have downloaded Eurotrip<!--graemlin::)--> I can’t wait to watch it!!! John thar “Scotty Doesnt’ know” song got stuck in my head! Would be cool if that is going to be the “day song” for our group <!--graemlin::)-->- 0 people like this

Haha I’m down for some European clubbing…I’m not sure about the Paris red light district though haha. Water?? They don’t sale water over there, only beer! haha Scotty doesn’t know is definitely catchy!
I’m a big Coldplay fan…I found out that Chris Martin and Gwyneth Paltrow live on Belsize Park Gardens but I’m not sure which house. There’s a good chance they wouldn’t be home but it’s not far from the hotel, I may have to pass by! haha- 0 people like this

I like Coldplay as well, also don’t mind Nickleback and Bon Jovi
<!--graemlin::)--> lol yes water but something tells me I’ll end up changing my mind about that <!--graemlin::)--> hehe One of my friends who went on a Contiki on a Great Britain tour last year said that if you order a mixed drink it will come as a “double” which means it will be extra strong…..unless you ask for a single! So becareful and I highly doubt it is only in Great Britain <!--graemlin::)--> hehe- 0 people like this

Haha I won’t be doing any driving so I’m not worried about strong drinks!
Here’s some of Gwyneth Paltrow’s favorite places in London from a People interview

Here’s her and Chris Martin’s supposed address….
Chris Martin Top Flat 79 Belsize Park Gardens London NW1 REINO UNIDO
Also, wikipedia says that Helena Bonham Carter, Kate Moss, Kate Winslet, Jude Law, and the Gallagher brothers from Oasis live in Belsize Park Gardens too.- 0 people like this

<!--graemlin::)--> Alejandra I totally think the same thing <!--graemlin::)--> I definately like the people (including yourself of course <!--graemlin::)-->) I met on here so far that are going on this trip <!--graemlin::)-->
Speaking of drinking, it won’t hurt me either I’m Russian
<!--graemlin:;)--> haha Although vodka is NOT my best friend and I appreciate a good glass of wine once in a while…My fave is “Pinot Griggio” white <!--graemlin::)-->
I gotta check that website John, got me interested<!--graemlin::)-->- 0 people like this

I’m waiting to get Eurotrip from Netflix, I thought I owned a cope but I guess I was wrong.
I’m not a wine drinker, I’m more of a beer/vodka/rum drinking kind of gal. that is why I’m just gonna love waking up at them pubs. ha ha. Oh, and John, thanks for that website link for the british slang. It’s just “hunky-dory”- 0 people like this

Lisa – I think its listed as one of Contiki’s requirements to watch Eurotrip before you go
<!--graemlin::)-->
Wine or beer is good with me..I’m willing to try anything there to experience the culture, no matter how disgusting haha
I really don’t mind being the only guy on this tour so far<!--graemlin::)-->- 0 people like this

I hear you Dana, Contiki does a pretty good job on posting videos of their tours, I’m hoping ours is exactly like that, ha ha. But yes lets hope there are more guys doing this tour.
we do not have any extensions, but we are staying one more night in Paris for that we can go to Disneyland Paris and then head back to London for one more day of exploring. I doubt I will be able to do Liverpool since it’s about another 2.5 hour commute.
