Hi, Welcome to my blog. Hope you like it. I am soon to be going, August 16th. Getting more excited as the days pass now.

I have been booking accommodation in Asia: Beijing, Hong Kong and Bangkok. We are staying in style for nine days in these cities after roughing it on trains and in the desert for a month, crossing Russia, Siberia, and Mongolia. After that we travel South through Thailand, head for the beach and relax. We tour Indo China and then to Australia, Test Cricket and the Great Barrier Reef. Onward to tropical New Zealand and Fiji. Finally the US: LA and New York.......for a burger! I'll try and write often - I suppose there will be a lot to tell you. I am travelling with Ruth who I assume to be fully prepared with all the things that I will no doubt forget.
