Excuses....

Some may think that the following are good reasons why I should have been updating our adventures more often....I simply see them as excuses why I haven't been! You can make up your own mind.

We've finished most of the planning (and paying!) for our big adventure to Uganda, Tanzania, Kenya, Rwanda, Malta, Egypt and India in October and November this year. Michelle and I are both nervous and excited by this trip. My mind blows when I simply think about it... experiencing it will be something else altogether, and I can't wait to share it with you. I've been stocking up on all the necessary new technology to help document it, hence I have a new camera and portable mp3/storage device to pack! Stay tuned.

Once the planning for our trip was pretty much finalised we had just enough money left over to also buy ourselves a new home :) I've worried a little about our priorities, but regret nothing! We were looking for a place on and off for about 6 months (I guess you could call it research...?), and when we eventually set our limitations and got serious we found a place and had our offer accepted within a couple of weeks...pretty efficient I reckon! We're still in the middle of all the legal business and don't actually own the place yet, but we're hoping for a house warming/going away bbq in around September.
