lazy w/e

Life is very kickback at the moment..
 Can't work or travel easy without my euro passport so I am doing a whole lotta nothing, and lovin it!
The sun came out! View from the lounge room window at Vs.

I went out to a heavy metal bar with my Aussie mate Troy on Sat night..
No decent photos came of it, just a shitload of drinking, some new Irish mates and a killer hangover

Last night saw a burlesque show in Tooting.
7 of us went. Quality show. I ate the sweaty boob cucumber.

Aaaaand home time :)

forgot to add the leaving part...

Cheapest and most interesting way back to London was on a 10 hour bus ride.
Passed through Brussels and Bruges, Belguim, went over the French-UK border and under the ocean.

2 passport checks at the border and a nightmare 30 minute hold up.
Last in a long line of passengers, some Aussie chick.
UK border security and police didn't want to let her in with her lack of a working visa.
Eventually she passed and boarded an angry bus full of tired pissed off tourists.

My bad.
Bus loaded onto Train ready to do a dive.


Lost in Amsterdam

Unexpected turn of events = AnneMarie hostel. 2 Bored French stoners. Cafes. Attempted communication. Endless walking. Febo (late night greasy fix). Canals. Pubs. Redlight. Cheese. Booze. Baguettes.
    
 

Fun times.

It's everywhere!
Shops, full of awesomeness and free tasting.

I may or may not have visited 4 of the same shop, different streets.

All the cheese, in my belly.
Om nom nom.

Halfway there....

or a 3rd at least.
14 hr flight coming up in 30mins.

KL staff didn't want to let me on the plane to London 'cause of my lack of return ticket home.
I wee'd my pants a little. Then used my charm.
20mins later they decided to let me go.
Now all is swell, and a little sweaty.

ok, c u bai.


Boarding in 10.
Goodbyes done and done.
The reality is creeping up...
