Packing

Time for me to dig out my backpack and get ready for another adventure! This year is slightly different from my usual jaunts across the world. I'm bringing my boyfriend with me, Adam Robertson. It's going to be fabulous! A proper holiday together. YAY. Singapore - Australia - Hong Kong HERE WE COME. Just need to pack....we do leave tomorrow after all! It's going to be so amazing. I am so excited. Seeing new places, seeing friends old and new and dipping my toes into that oh so warm ocean. Bliss.

Expect a whole bunch of blogs from me whilst I'm gone. I'm going to update as much as possible so you can all join my adventure with me. And who knows, maybe next year I'll be coming to see you on my travels too!

I promise to try to :
- not get any tan lines
- say i'm going for only 3 weeks and stay 3 months like last time
- update my blog as much as possible
- enjoy my holiday!

If you email me whilst I'm gone I WILL reply asap. But please do email me on my private email : info@madamebink.co.uk. Acessing model sites abroad can be tough and I can get to my email much easier...
You can view my timetable for when I am back here or here - feel free to mail me about dates :)

Enroute to Australia

I'm going to post updates of my holiday here. It may run a day or so behind 'real time' due to internet access but heyho :)

Date: 21st Sept
Location : Bangkok Airport

Bangkok airport seems to be a huge tent made from glass, metal and decorative floor times. It's so hot compared to on the plane. It was nice at first, the air seems fresh compared to the recycled stuff I was breathing before but now it just feels sticky and hot. Apparently it's 33C which is a rather large jump from the temperature at Heathrow when I left at 22.00 yesterday.

I was very pleased to find a smoking room & have sat and smoked during my brief stay here. Ornate statues line all the walkways, God's with bright blue and red faces. Stood on top of the decorative floor. Theres been an almighty thunderstorm, lightening flashes so clear and bright in the sky. It's bright outside, it's only around 17.00 hrs, but the bolts of lightening shoot down so clearly. They seem to fall from the sky forever working their way down to the ground.

big Blue Face!

big Red Face!



Date : 22nd Sept
Location : Sydney


I made my way through the airport with ease, I wasn't carrying any soil or seeds so they weren't interested in me at all. I strolled through and spotted the doors to the outside and started picking up my pace. Finally excited about my first properly holiday in years. I recognised a voice, mocking me - it was Phil! He'd suprised me and had come to pick me up at 6am :) Was a lovely suprise.

I've spent the day sleeping for the most part. Lack of sleep on the plane due to the passengers on either side of me brought that on. But I'm looking forward to getting back into bed any moment. I'm keen to keep my blog up to date on this trip so here I am typing away.

I was meant to head straight off into the Blue Mountains today but have decided to head off in the morning when Phil goes to work. The Blue Mountains will be the real start to my adventures, I'm excited to start doing some walking and lots of picture taking!
