  92 Days to go!!!!!!! Not long now, however the closer it gets the longer I want to go away for and the more I want to see <!--graemlin::(--> I can’t wait to receive all my travel documents. I was just reading about the chance of it snowing in London so thats another possible packing issue. Adam you better not leave those boots you don’t want to be stuck with 100 pairs of Dunlop Volleys do you? :P

  Haha there are new tour buddies coming from everywhere! What is our group count up to so far?
  
  Lisa,
  Yeah me and my mate Adz are staying in the Greek Islands after the tour then tripping around Europe for another couple of months. We’re doing the Croatian Island Cruising early August, then finishing off in the UK for a week or so.
  
  You should definitely book the Greek Island Hopping after London to Athens, it will be the best part!!
  
  Can’t wait for this trip! Boom!

  I was reading a post in Europe Advice about the wheather but my friend just recently moved to London so I will ask her closer to the date what the wheather is like and let you know Staceu. I’ve never seen snow so I think it would be kind of cool but a * to pack for.

  I have decided that it will not snow while we are there…I didn’t sign up for snow…haha But if it does it won’t be that cold out because it will be May.
  
  Tegan, I wish I could send you some snow in a jar or something…too bad it would melt. I would be happy to get rid of some that we have here. : )
  
  I can’t wait for this trip to start no matter the weather. I am buying my suitcase this weekend and hope that it is large and in charge to fit everything I want to bring!!!!
  
  Can’t wait!!

  Thats so sweet TravelMay it doesn’t have to be snowing just if the ground is all frosted over it would be nice <!--graemlin::)--> Its hot in Townsville however we are a great Wet Season.
  
  I have my suitcase and my overnight bag now I bought my overnight bag last week, they are both sitting at the end of my bed waiting to be pack.
  
  I think I want to drive a Vespa in Italy, does anyone know if there is any license requirments. I just saw When in Rome and it just got me all the more excited to be able to see place.
