A Blog would be an insult to the last 2 years of preperation, funding and personal issues.. Let alone the trip itself.. I think I will have to write a book lol

Im stressed out and I havnt left my bedroom yet :D


Yesterday I was informed (by my mum) that my passport expires whilst im away so I booked in a day at the passport office and ran round like an arse to get pictures and supporting documents.. THEN, to my surprise, upon checking my passport it doesnt expire until 2009. Its actually my driving licence that expires 2 months after I return..

HAHAHAHAHAHAH OH HOW I LAUGHED...


:cursing:

Josh I´m with you on this one! A classic!

Are you still in Rio? We arrived 2 days ago. If you fancy a drink we are at the Unico hotel in Catete (it´s in the guides!) . We hope to leave tomorrow. We tried today but my bike wouldn´t start! I think we fixed it though (starter button) and we are getting the battery recharged. should be ok.
Just pop by the hotel if you are around and have nothing better to do! Would be nice to meet at last!

Ed you must write a book and in the meantime a blog! I think you´re starting to have a lot of fans in the HUBB!!!! :lol2:

Im going to do a blog..

www.touringted.com

Theres nothing on it at the moment but give me a few weeks and ill get cracking..

Im going to keep a diary on my laptop and upload it every few weeks.

Im guessing it will be a short transition from blog to "Take a break" magazine, to Richard and Judy and finally the Movie staring Brad Pitt. They will probably cast Shakira to star as the role of the pregnant Colombian girl chasing me for child support.... hah, im joking really............. I hate Richard and Judy ;)

Ted,
when you book in get a seat by the door and let the flight crew know you have a short time to get to the next flight and they will let you off first.

How have you covered the return flight requirement for entry

we will be riding the down south from Alaska next year and and both USA and Canada require a onward flight ticket when you arrive.

Well im not going to the USA and Canada.

Officially Argentina requires a return flight for a visa but iv'e been assured by many visitors that I dont need one if I explain my plans.

Your getting me worried now !! LOL

God, that photo is awful !! $5 sunglasses and id just had my chest waxed for a bet the week before.

That pic is in Luxor, on the banks of the River Nile on Christmas eve :D

The Big J 5 Oct 2007 14:26

Waxing your chest for a bet? That's what all the English guys say...

You'll fit in in Brasil, that's for sure! Just do a few press-ups before going to the beach.

It'll work out Ted, I understand your edginess. Have a great trip. If you start in BA, I'm sure a big fat steak will take the edge off once you arrive. Me, I'm heading to London, it's me who needs the help.

*Touring Ted* 6 Oct 2007 21:16

I've hopefully solved this dilema.

I've just bought another flight which is 4 hours earlier !!

£50 :D

Now I just need to figure out if I need to buy a return flight !!

Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

:eek3:

Men waxing their chest? What next?
I always worry when I go to a beauty clinic in London and more than half people in the waiting room are blokes! What are they doing there? Waiting for a wax? Laser hair removal?? Botox???!! Facial???!!!!
What happened to the 100% testosterone Daniel Craigs of this world?
Are they all turning into girly/wimpish/androgynous / slightly stomach turning Jude Law? :eek:

Only jocking guys!

Ted (or Ed????) have a great trip!

Actually, Maria, Ted was just being the culturally sensitive man that he is. It's perfectly normal to remove all body hair in that part of the world.
