Contiki was feral!
We had a meeting at the royal national before Contiki which was good because I met 2 girls Emily and Katie and we had dinner together. We went back to our rooms fairly early because we had to be downstairs at the bus by 6am. At 6am that morning Ryan, Aaron and Lloydy were still getting pissed, they tried to take alcohol with them on the bus. They had clearly been up all night and were off their faces. I sat on the bus next to Kirsty a girl from Canberra who I ended up being tent buddies with! She was fun, it didn’t take her long to get used to my smutty sense of humour... Sometimes she would just shake her head at me. I told her it was fine to tune me out, I think that’s what Meagan does most of the time I get too disgusting. We chatted on the bus all the way to Dover and then we got on the ferry. It wasn’t too bad but when I walked through the ferry it looked like I was as pissed as the boys. It was hard to walk straight. We got to the campsite I think around 5 or something. We pretty much just set up our tents and ate dinner straight away so I’m guessing it was pretty late in the afternoon. We were meant to have a demonstration about the tents but that never happened so me and Kirsty just went for it. I think we did a pretty good job for first timers. I had seen a tent put up a few times but I had never done it, especially with someone as clueless as me. That night we went on the tour of illuminations which was a bus tour around Paris. It was so good to see Paris by bus. I had only walked around before at night. It’s a bit different when you can see all the sights at night and also have the tour guide talk to you about what it all means. Babsi was the best tour guide ever but Mushi our tour guide was really good as well, she knew AAAAALOT of history. Her real name was Michelle, I called her Mushi, even though she told me not to, she thought it sounded like something you do to a banana. I told her no that’s mash or mush, I say mushi more like Mooshi.
Anyway I’m rambling... that night we went back to the campsite. It was Kritta’s birthday that night so a few people were at the bar but a lot were turned off because the drinks were so expensive and the bar tender was annoying. He wouldn’t even fill up Kritta’s drink to the top even thought it was here birthday. I went to bed fairly early so that I could get a full days sightseeing in Paris. Again.
The next day me and Kirsty headed off into Paris, it was good I had been there before I think it saved a lot of time. It was easy finding attractions, I got us a little lost once and so we just jumped on the train which was so much easier than walking. I got to go to Notre Dame and climb the up all the stairs and see the beautiful view. It was a fun day. It wasn’t really enough time though. I felt jibbed and I had already seen everything I wanted to see. Oh and it was funny because Kirsty hates birds, is quite scared of them and outside Notre Dame there was this bird man. He sat down and all these birds flew all around us. Kirsty freaked out. The man was hilarious, I looked over and he had his arms out like Jim Carey in Ace Ventura, he had birds all over is arms and probably head. I forget exactly I was too busy asking kirsty if that was her dream job. We also went underground at the Louvre. Mushi told us that only fools line up outside hahah, that you get in much faster if you line up underground. You get underground via the metro station or there is stairs or something near the arc in out the front of the outside entrance. So me and kirsty went to the underground part, I hadn’t been there before and it was cool to see stuff from the Da Vinci Code. I also saw the bridge where Mr. Big tells Carrie she’s the one and the fountain that Anne Hathaway throws her cell phone into in the Devil Wears Prada. So exciting.
That night we had an optional dinner, a Parisian dinner, I had Quiche Lorraine because I couldn’t face the snails, they were in shells and they looked like they were fresh from the garden. I get grossed out when I accidentally step on one. Ewww. James ate one earlier that day, actually quite a few people did, the rep at the campsite gave us some as a welcome to Paris. They were cold and looked feral, I would have vomited if I ate one. I also had beef bourguignon which was amazing, the beef was so tender. It was a yummy dinner. I even had some wine! I sat with Emily, Katie and kirsty and as we drank the conversation turned dirty. Supposedly there is a park in Amsterdam where you can have sex and not get in trouble for having sex in public. We were telling Emily she should do it in the park in Amsterdam because her partner is from the Netherlands and she was meeting up with him after the tour. Perfect. That’s story to tell the grandkids.
After that we had a few drinks in the red light district. There was an optional to go to a cabaret; you get to see boobies and everything! But it was 70 euro, for the first day of the tour it seemed like so much money, but it would have been good to say that I had seen a French cabaret. We had a good night anyways, it was good to get to know everyone and alcohol always helps. It was so funny to see the difference between how rowdy everyone was in the bus after a few drinks. Mushi would say something like “Yay we’re going into Paris tonight!” and everyone would pitifully go “Yeah” and with a few drinks up us it was enthusiasm central. I didn’t stay out too late that night. I was pacing myself; we still had 20 nights to go! But we did the Can-Can in front of the Moulin Rouge. Actually we did it twice because the first time James took a photo instead of a video. Luckily we got these things called Get Lost Sheets, they should have been called Get Found Sheets, with all the names and addresses of our accommodation because we were always pissed, and it came in handy. I used it all the time!
The next day was Monday the 14th and we were off to Switzerland. I don’t think Mushi was too impressed with out packing up skills. We were late leaving the campsite that morning. Whoops. The drive just before we reached our campsite was so beautiful. We were staying in the mountains; Switzerland is definitely the most beautiful country we visited. That night we got to the campsite and had dinner and a few drinks around the campsite. I bought some of my favourite Europe backpacking budget drink, cheap white wine and pineapple juice. It gets you fucked for about 4 euro! We got told to leave the campsite and go to the bar because they have noise curfews. So I went to the bar, called the bomb shelter, had a boogie, got some red bull liqueur shots from Mushi and Steph our cook. You had to tap the bottle on the bar, stick the lid of the bottle to your head for some reason, then put the lid in your mouth and if you shot it into the middle of a bulls eye board you got a free one or something. I got fairly drunk that night, when you are travelling and trying to save money you think mixing drinks is a good way to get drunk for a minimal price. It’s very cheap but it’s shocking the next day.
On Tuesday the 15th we headed up Jungfrau Mountain, we had to catch 2 trains up the mountain. I woke up late that morning so I didn’t even wash my make up off I just made sure I didn’t have black everywhere. I also missed breakfast but they had a shop so I bought myself some. On the way up everyone was feeling like crap. Alex kept talking about hot tuna milkshakes to try to make everyone vomit. Tiff was feeling pretty bad... I thought she was going to vomit, especially after hearing about hot tuna milkshakes fresh out of ya mums bum the whole way up the mountain. Finally we all got up the mountain with no spews. It was a blizzard that day. The views from the top of Jungfrau are meant to be spectacular. All we saw was white. At one part of the mountain you could go outside but there was nothing to do because it was a blizzard. It was freezing and we could barely see anything. At another look out the winds were 90km/h and the floor was so icy. We had to hold onto ropes so we wouldn’t fall over! It sucked. We spent all of 3 minutes outside and the rest of the time we just hung out inside. It was really boring, but the chips and gravy were amazing! Me and Kirsty also had a hot chocolate and she vomited... Milk was a bad choice. It was funny. For me. A lot of people left early that day. We only got up the mountain at 11 or 12 and people were leaving at 2 because it was that boring. We got back at maybe 4 or 5. That’s when I finally washed my makeup off and had an awesome shower and got ready to start drinking again! That night we had more drinks around the campsite and Steph (our cook) and Mushi (our tour guide) sat with us as well. It was funny, Kelly told us a story about how she saw a dog looking at her so she waved at it, then she got all embarrassed because she looked around and the dog was looking at a cat that was behind her. It was hilarious. She tells the most random stories but she is so funny. Her friend Brooke fell off her chair at one point because she was laughing so hard. This was definitely one of those bonding nights we had. That’s what I loved about the whole camping thing, it was so social, if we had cabins the whole time it would have been so anti social. If you have a tent you don’t spend any time in the tent so you are forced to sit with everyone during spare time. It was awesome because everyone became really close. Later on when we got told we were too loud we went to the Bomb Shelter, which was a contiki bar so only contiki people were allowed in. All the other tour groups wanted in as well. Heaps of them were cracking it because they weren’t allowed. Too bad for them, they should have been smart enough to do a contiki. So anyways I got pissed again... I had some wine then I had some vodka at the bar and I don’t really remember what else. I think Lloydy bought some drinks and gave me one. I was about to go back to my cabin and then he passed me a drink so then I ended up staying longer. Then I went and sat by the river thing that was near my cabin with Simone... I think. I finally got to bed but I don’t know what time it was because my phone had cut out at this point. I even went and got a drink of water, I drank a few cups, but the next morning I woke up feeling so rough. I slept in again because no one in our cabin set an alarm, despite having phones that were charged, I didn’t charge mine. A. Because I was drunk both nights and B. Because other people were using the power points. I figured those with charged things would set an alarm. I was wrong.
So the next day was Wednesday the 16th and we had about half an hour to pack up our shit and get ready and get on the bus and go to Antibes! I was extreme hung over so this task was hard. I went to the shop to use up my extra francs. I bought lollies and chips, no real breakfast food. I had a few chips on the bus because I figured I would need some energy. A couple of hours later I felt like crap. I tried to fall asleep and I made myself really dizzy. I asked Sarah who was sitting across from me whether she could grab me some plastic bags, the bus doesn’t stop if you need to vomit it doesn’t stop for anything actually. So I was feeling like I couldn’t make it to the front of the bus to get bags, I didn’t know they were at the back as well. Sarah grabbed me some and before she even handed them to me I fainted. I had moved my arm rest down and I was on the aisle seat so I fainted head first into the aisle. It was classy! My head hit the ground and then my legs slumped down onto the ground and then I scraped my nose on the floor because I moved my head to make me face down. It sucked. I broke my sunglasses as well. I woke up and luckily we had a paramedic on out tour because he was taking my pulse and asking me where I was. I felt horrible! I felt absolutely disgusting. I vomited after I got picked up and put back on a seat it was fairly gross. Mushi gave me a bottle of Powerade and it took me the whole day to drink it. I ate something at one of the service stops and I threw that up later on. I decided I wasn’t even going to try to eat food till I was off the bus!
That afternoon we got to Antibes. As soon as I got off the bus I felt a thousand times better, we also had a good dinner and that made me feel human again. That night I didn’t have any euro on me which was good because if I did I probably would have kept drinking. Once I had a shower I felt like I was ready to do it all again. That’s the thing about contiki. Once the night comes you are ready to get drunk again! But I took it easy and went to bed not too late so I could enjoy nice the next day. It rained so much that night, if you went outside for 2 minutes you would be soaked. I was so scared our whole tent would be flooded with water but it was ok. They were better tents than I thought, or maybe Kirsty and I are just really good erecters!
The next day Thursday the 17th we went into nice. On the way we went to Fragonard the perfumery I had already been to with Babsi and the boys. I didn’t go in, I got distracted on the phone to mum, I ended up just going into the shop but I didn’t buy anything because I think it’s a bit of a rip off and the perfumes don’t really interest me that much. I think mum got a bit scared when if told her I passed out on the bus. Whoops. Kirsty and I just went shopping that day in nice. We didn’t really do much, just chilled out. I ate an awesome baguette. I picked myself up some vodka for some cheap pre drinks at the campsite. I was sick of drinking wine at this point. Especially after my Switzerland adventures. We were waiting at the bus pick up point and Lloydy came past on a scooter. He bought it for something like 120 euro! It was from a toy shop as well, it was just a regular push scooter, but he said he was sick of walking. It was hilarious. He had the biggest smile on his face.
Later in we went to Monaco, I had already been there as well but it was so nice at night. We went to the casino which I hadn’t been to but it was a bit boring. It’s not really the place to take a feral contiki group. It was so posh and we were not. It was great to see the place but it sucked that we couldn’t take out cameras inside. That night if you missed the bus it was a 120 euro cab ride home. Everyone made it on the bus except Simone and Claire. They had to catch a cab back and they tried to do a runner but the cab driver caught them. One of them also left their camera at the casino because we had to put them in the cloak room. It was hilarious. It felt like everyday somebody did something crazy. We had a Dick of the Day, every day on the bus we would nominate people that did something stupid the day before and they had to wear the Dick of the Day hat. At first it was this tiger thing which made everyone look special, and then that stolen and ruined and then we had this dodgy beanie which everyone added things to.
On Friday the 18th day we went to Florence. On the way we went to Pisa, I had gelati there at one of mushi’s favourite gelati parlours. It was pretty amazing. I felt like crap this day, I couldn’t wait to get to the campsite and have a shower. Half the time we had about half an hour to get ready, most days we would get to the campsite set up, get ready, eat and leave within a couple of hours. It’s not a lot of time especially if you have to help cook or clean. That night we went to the Red Garter. It was still happy hour when we got there so I got a litre of strawberry margarita. In Italy they usually free pour so the drinks are insanely strong, but its good cos you don’t have to buy a thousand drinks to get drunk... sometimes only two :) That night at the Red Garter it was awesome, there was other contiki groups there so it was packed. They had karaoke but I forget who even sang from our group. I was fairly trashed that night, Alex said the next day when he was looking for people for a cab he just found the people that were the drunkest and told them to come home. One of them was me! But I wasn’t as drunk as some, Krista and Tiff went to hospital for being extremely drunk. Lloydy came back to the campsite with Paul at about 6 or 7am and jumped the fence, even though there was a gate. Lloydy cut his hand on the way over because there were massive sharp jagged triangles all the way along the fence. So just as the 2 girls we coming out of the hospital with Steph, Lloydy was walking in. Poor steph stayed up all night taking care of people from our tour in hospital. I was so pissed but I was really good pissed. I usually get drunk and I vomit before I actually get to really happy drunk. Katie had to hold my hand on the way back to the campsite cos I kept stumbling up the hill. I couldn’t walk straight. I also interrupted someone peeing when I went to go have a spew. I thought I better spew and thank god I did because I wouldn’t have felt even worse in the morning. I was telling this guy, the one I interrupted his pee, to go away cos I was gunna make myself spew and I didn’t want him to see it. I’m so classy!
On Saturday the 19th we went into Florence. We had a tour and then we had a few hours spare time. I was hung over as crap. I don’t know why I didn’t just stay in bed. Most people bailed on the tour they were too hung over to handle it. Me and Jacqui found this guy who was painting letters that looked like all different animals. Jacqui went missing one night in Antibes and was out the whole night, she couldn’t find her way back to the campsite. Her sister Kritta was calling her a block head. Jacqui wanted to get one of the paintings so I told her to get block head. She wrote it down and I was laughing my head off. I think I was still pissed! I thought it was the funniest thing ever. Me, Jacqui and Sheree went back to the campsite early, we caught a cab back, I couldn’t handle it anymore. I needed to go back to sleep. I had a nap and relaxed that day, it was so good to be able to have a proper shower, do my hair for longer than 10 minutes and just take my time getting ready. That night we went and had dinner all together and then went to space disco. It was Florence’s largest night spot, it was ok. I think I was still feeling the effects from the night before. But also it was a little bit sleazy; there were a few old men around who should not have been there, they were way too old. I didn’t have a huge one that night. I find it hard to get drunk when I have had a big one the night before.
On Sunday the 20thwe went to Rome. I forget what we did that night. I think we had dinner in Rome. The alcohol really starts to affect me at this point. Hahaha. I think I went to bed early because I was so exhausted and I knew we had a tour the next day and I didn’t want to be extremely hung over for something I had already paid for.
The next day was our full day in Rome on Monday the 21st. We had a tour of the Roman Forum and the Colosseum our tour guide was so funny. He kept saying “Contiki, Follow the guide, Follow the right guide”. The tour was interesting but I don’t think Rome was as beautiful as some other cities. I think that some parts of Rome were a bit ugly and run down. We also went to the Vatican and had some awesome pizza that Mushi showed us. The Vatican took ages, but it was beautiful and amazing, the artwork all over the walls was so cool. That day our driver had a day off so we didn’t go back into the city that night we just had a few drinks around the campsite, a few people went to the bar or club or whatever it was but I couldn’t be bothered. Supposedly it wasn’t that good. I had a bit of a quiet one and had another decent night’s sleep.
On Tuesday the 22nd we headed from Rome to Venice. That night was so cool. There was a guy with a guitar who would play off the back of a Ute. They drove around the campsite and played for everyone. They also had a bottle of alcohol which they were pouring into people mouths, most of it got in people’s eyes and down their tops. The guy was aussie and it was really entertaining. Our group had a seat in front of his Ute at the bar and we went nuts. We were chanting and making Brad drink all his beers. Claire asked him if he had a cabin because she wanted a cabin upgrade and then later on he sang a song to her. It was a great night. Everyone got a bit loose.
The next day Wednesday the 23rd we went into Venice for a full day of sightseeing. We went and saw a lace making demonstration. We just walked around did a little bit of shopping and ate some pasta. Brad tried to take a piss in a canal but a boat went past, he told us he only got 3 drops out. Poor B-rad. We went into St Mark’s church. Brooke was wearing shorts so she had to wrap her scarf around her legs. It looked like a sarong but really tight. She couldn’t walk up and down stairs. I was trying not to laugh cos I was in a church but I couldn’t help it. Later on we went on a gondola ride. Most of us got a bottle of champagne each; they gave us each 6 cups thinking we were going to share the champagne between the 6 of us on the gondola. No chance, we were on Contiki. I didn’t really drink it all because the ride wasn’t long enough. I asked out gondola man whether he would sing for us. He said he only sings when he is making love. One of the other girls said he could take off his clothes if that would help him get into the mood for singing. He didn’t go for it. Damn it. Hahaha. After the gondola we were back on the ferry and back over to the campsite. I was sooooo drunk by this stage. I gave a little of my champagne to Brad and Claire because I was off my face. I was wasted on the ferry ride home and I needed to pee so badly. Me and kirsty were trashed and we ran to this toilet and then it was locked then we had to go to this bar and get the key. I thought I was gunna wet myself in all my drunkenness! That night we had dinner at the bar steph the cook told us were eating horse. Most people believed her and refused to eat it. I don’t know what it was but it wasn’t horse. That dinner was yum and by that point I was slightly sober. I tried to have a couple of drinks that night by I didn’t get very far. Drinking champagne in the afternoon really killed me. So I went to bed. B-rad on the other hand was off his face. The boys told the bartender it was B-rad’s birthday and he got this insanely strong drink. The guy came up when we were having dinner and poured a shot in his mouth. I think B-rad had about 20 birthdays on the whole of contiki.
Anyways enough for now! Ahhh this contiki part is taking so long. So much to write.

It has been a long time since i have written anything on here so I will try to remember what happened the last few days at babsi's house..... Here I go... hahaha
So the next night we went to this Mexican bar called Sausalito’s it is amazing we went there for happy hour and got a little trashed. We had planned to go to Sausalito’s then go see My Sisters Keeper... Worst idea ever... I had a couple of champagnes and a couple of cocktails so it was fair to say I was pretty mashed by the time we got into the movies. The movie was in German of course but despite that I cried the whole way through... It was horrible :( I think the movie would have been extremely sad if I was sober and if it was in English but I don’t think the alcohol helped. It sucked. We should have just stayed at the cocktail bar and talked about happy things. When we left it felt like I had a hangover! I had a pounding headache and was heaps hunger... Ohhh well.
The next day we went to Babsi's friend Manu's going away party. It was pretty sad but a pretty good party... I don't remember much of this night except that I love German potato salad. yummmmm.
The next day me and babsi went shopping just down the road to pick up a couple of things I needed for contiki... 100pk condoms.... they go so fast! Just kidding mum. That night we went to a bonfire they have for something… Summer? I don’t remember. I rode a bike there. That was interesting. I bashed one of my handles into a pole and almost stacked it. But then the rest of the ride was ok, except for when babsi was on the phone and I had no clue where we were going. The bonfire was cool, I had a couple of champagnes, but later on babsi started to feel sick so we stayed at Jacobs who didn’t live to far away. Thank god I didn’t have to ride the bike with alcohol in my system. I would have stacked it for shiz.
On Sunday I finally got to meet babsi’s cousin Judith and we went to a restaurant called Waldeslust it was nice. Babsi was laughing at me because I couldn’t pronounce the meal I wanted so I just mumbled my way through it. She thought it was hilarious…
On my last couple of days in Munich I just chilled out and got ready for contiki… On the Tuesday night I cooked stir-fry for babsi’s parents which Marta said she appreciated. I wish I could have cooked more for them but we really weren’t home enough.
On Wednesday the 9th of September I went to Hayleys in London it was sad leaving babsi :( I cried on the plane a bit. But after a while I realized if I don’t stop I will 1. Look disgusting when I get off the plane and 2. Look like I wasn’t happy to see Hayley, which I was. So I just started thinking happy thoughts and then suddenly I was at Hayley’s house. I really like it here place is really cute and so close to everything.
On Thursday I went to Buckingham palace while Hayley was at work. It was about 15 pound to go in and an audio tour was included. That was good because otherwise I would have just walked around like a zombie. It is beautiful in there but it’s more interesting when you find out what it all means. So that took up most of my day and then I met Hayley later and we went to go see Oliver. Hayley’s house mate at the time got £4.50 tickets through her job. It was so awesome they had so many different scenes and props flying out of nowhere. It was well worth the £4.50. The next day I tried to pack and get ready for my contiki but I got distracted by Skype for a good couple of hours. It was really good to talk to mum, dad and mark though. I finally packed and left the house and got to my hotel and checked in by about 5. I had a meeting at 7 for the contiki. I got up to my room and dumped all my shit. I had picked up a couple of tube papers so I could read them and chill out. Then I looked in my handbag and realized I still had Hayley’s house key which was meant to be sitting in her letter box so she could get in after work. I had to travel to battersea and back to drop it off. All together this was about an hour and a half. I was spewing but at least I got to my meeting on time and I got to say a proper goodbye to Hayley before I left.
That’s all I am going to write for now. Gotta go do some washing :)

Minga!
So we got back at about 6pm on sunday and got ready and went to a pub down the road because it was one of babsi's friends birthdays. It was dinner with a few of Babsi's friends and it was good to meet them but also i was really tired. We only stayed there for a couple of hours. By the next morning i was so happy to see some of my clothes all clean on the line! My clothes were gross as... It happens when you are camping and drunk all the time that cleaning your clothes is the last thing you think of. It wasn't really a problem cos most of the time i was wearing my bathers cos it was so freaking hot. Sooooo that night babsi's boyfriend had a party cos his parents were away... It was awesome. I met alot of babsi's friends which was awesome..German boys are good looking :) Before he had the party he came and picked us up and we went to his supermarket. It is a bit like Costco because you have to be a member and to be a member you have to have a business number. Its pretty cool and very cheap because its for cafes and restaurants and junk. You can buy 10kg of pasta and massive amounts of food there. They gave us free wine cos they had a guy there doing testings... It was a bad idea cos then i we couldn't concentrate...
Babsi asked me what i wanted the boys were getting a box of wine, 6 bottles, for 9 euros or something. So i said to babsi "Lets do that and share it" she said "No thats too much blah blah". Then she decided that was ok and then she told the boys in german to get us a box, they walked away and i followed them and she said "Don't go with them they can carry it" and she was pulling me away and i was like WTF? So anyway babsi was rushing around like a chook with her head cut off and i said "Babsi relax for a second, what are we doing? Should i go get some wine?" and she was like "Nah the boys have it don't worry". I was like what the efffff i dont know whats going on! So anyway she finally explained to me what was going on and i told her i don't understand everything in german especially not specific things. I was having this crazy rant in english laughing at babas and i was a little pissed, then babas saw someone she knew from school. I was like WHOOOPS. Then i had to say hi to some girl who thought i was complete nut-job. I'm doing a really good job at representing Australia.
Anyways jacobs party was really fun it was good finally seeing all the faces to the names i have heard about for ages. We did the Limbo rock again, made lots of 2 minute noodle thingies which i have an obsession with at the moment, i drank lots of wine and pineapple juice, talked to alot of peepz and had an all round awesome time. The party really started when every one went home. Only the drunkest people were left and we went into jacobs room, blasted the music, danced on his bed and acted like spastics. One of jacobs friends but the most random mix of costumes on it was hilarious. Another made a vodka and orange in a 500ml glass that was soooo strong and we all shared it around... I think thats where the pic came from on my facebook where i have stuff spilled down my top. It was one of those really good parties, i felt like i was in melbourne, babsi's friends are really awesome. Four of us ended up in Jacobs parents bed which was funny but i was sick of sleeping so close to people from our camping trip so went into jacobs sisters bed. Babsi was in jacob's parents bed with his sister and another guy manu. Babsi didn't want to sleep in jacobs bed because... Don't ask me why but he ate a tin of herring fillets in tomato sauce before bed. It was funny as because he was so drunk and babsi was like YOU STINK... He got so upset hahaha... I still don't know why he chose to eat that, how disgusting! Funny for me though...
The next day we went to this pool. It was a natural pool... The water was brown, but it was fun and freezing cold which was good because it was boiling. We saw quite a few of babsi's friends there and they had this floating trampoline in the pool. We kept jumping on and the boys were pushing all the little kids off it... It was mean as but funny... The kids were so shitty. Then we were sitting there and this kid pointed out a little dead fish about 5cm big sitting on the trampoline next to manu. Manu grabbed it and swam over to babsi who was sitting on the edge of the pool and put it on her leg. Babsi hates fish and she screamed hahaha. Then me and manu walked back to the towels and i said we should put it on someones wallet... Manu chose babsi. The rest of the day me, manu and jacobs sister toni made fish signs with our hands to each other. We thought it was hilarous. That night we had dinner at jacobs with his grandparents. When germans say cheers they say prost, when we were in france or italy someone said prostata which mean prostate, so we all started saying that. During dinner when we all said prost babsi said prostata! Then jacobs grandmother said prostata as well! It was hilarious... On top of that i was trying not to laugh because i kept remembering the fish in babsis purse. It was maybe 9pm when i finally got manu to ask babsi whether she had any change. When she found the fish she cracked the shits! It was so bad. It stunk so badddddd. She rekons her whole bag stunk as well as her purse. It had been in the bag for maybe 4 hours by now and it was disgusting. Me and manu really didn't think it would smell that bad. Babsi wouldn't talk to us for the rest of the night. Her parents came and picked us up not long after that and when we got home i just went to bed. In the morning we woke up and she was talking to me again :) it was pretty mean but i would have told her earlier if i knew it would stink that bad. Even babsi admitted the next morning that she found it a bit funny the next morning.
The next day we went to the shops with jacob to take his mobile phone to get fixed cos babsi accidentally broke it when we were on holidays... It's no suprise we were drinking the night it happened.... So we had a bit of a lazy day just had a bit of a shop... I bought one kilo of lollies. That night we played a Finding Nemo drinking game with a group of their friends. You watch the movie and everytime they say nemo you have to drink... They say it so many times its hilarious! I drank these mixed drinks from this really cheap supermarket they cost like 80 cents! Thats so cheap! like not even $1.60 aussie dollars. I wish they were that cheap in australia... I would be drunk always. I seriously love the alcohol here. I've drank pretty much everynight. It's fab cos i haven't even spent that much moneys....
OK i've had enough. Peace out

Italiaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
Yeah so Montpellier was boring and on tuesday the 25th we went to jesolo. We were meant to go to biarritz but this guy sebastian who was with us had to go home earlier so we decided to go somewhere closer to home. From biarritz to munich would have taken us a long time and we didn't have enough. So we started driving i think arounf 12 or so and we got to jesolo by about 12midnight. Me and babas slept in the car, jacob slept on the beach and seb in a tent beside the car. I slept pretty bad cos there was a mozzie in the car and it kept buzzing around. We woke up early and booked a site at Ca'Pasquali Village and then had breakfast on the beach and went in the pool before we could set up our site at 11.
I loved it at Ca'Pasquali. They had an awesome pool and an even awesomer pool bar and the most awesomely hot bartender. OK he wasn't that good but he was pretty hot and he remembered my drink after one time. Maybe its because i ordered a bacardi breezer at like 2pm. They do this thing which they call animation but we would call it kids club or something. There is about 10 or 15 people about 20 years old or so and they play with the little kids and dance with them, push them in the pool and shit. Its actually really cute. I like waking up and going to the pool, dancing along to all the gay songs. It made my morning.... hahaha im so crap. At night the animation guys put on a show. It was a circus theme... We grabbed a couple of drinks and went down there anyways they were dancing with the little kids when we got in there. Me and babas started dancing... as you do... along the back of everyone seated and the man who was doing the lighting saw us and put the spotlight on us. It was hilarious so we danced all the way to our seat. The circus thing got a bit gay so we went to the bar and had some drinks and stared at the hot bartender. Also later on we went to the beach to have a look and that was gay. AAAnd i nearly knackered myself trying to jump over the fence.
The next day we sat by the pool i had a couple of drink and the hot guy gave me free pizza.... Awesome :) That night we went into Jesolo and had dinner. It was yum and quite cheap. We got 2 litres of wine and got a little loose... Its so much cheaper in italy compared to france. We didn't eat out at all in France. There are so many germans in jesolo... i rekon 90 percent of our campsite was german. All the workers around there in shops and at the camp can speak german. They all thought i was german. So after dinner we had a walk around and had a look in a few shops and me ad babas kept holding hands. She was saying stuff like i love you, im so glad i have found you and all this crap in german. All these peeps were looking at us so strangely and we found it hilarious, we had 2 litres of wine, me, jacob and babas. Some german heard us saying and said i love you too hahahah. She had a sense of humour.
The next day we went to venice. It was beautiful but sooooo hot... and then it just got a bit boring and we wanted to get back to the campsite. I'm going there with contiki anyways. Seb left us and did some sightseeing and we were gunna meet him at the boat and 4 and try and get on an earlier one than we booked but he didn't come in time so went to a bar and i drank some more bacardi breezers :)I also bought a lady bug and a heart shaped necklace. That night we went back to the campsite and got insanely drunk. I had some more vodka and then some wine i think... or champagne i dont remember. Then we went to the pool bar i i had sex on the beach... hahahah... and a frozen daquiri, and a couple more bacardi breezers. We were sitting around the bar and then all of a sudden i couldnt find babas. Me and seb went back to the campsite and they werent there. Seb went to sleep and i continued the search. I finally found them and then we went for a swim. This was about 12 or 1am. It was sooooooo much fun. I wouldn't do this in australia but these beaches are so shallow and they have no waves. We just jumped around like nuts and then when we had to jump the fence to get back in the camp security came around, luckily we had our camp IDs on us. I think he sort of laughed at us though cos we were all wet jumping a fence at 1am. I hurt myself jumping back over though cos i was a little trashed. Twas funny. On saturday we just hung out by the pool and ate pizza, i was too hungover to even have a bacardi. I think they ran out of orange ones while i was there anyways :)
So we had a lazy day and made our way back to munich on sunday. CBF writing anymore for now. Time for lunch :) Peace out.
I loved it at Ca'Pasquali. They had an awesome pool and an even awesomer pool bar and the most awesomely hot bartender. OK he wasn't that good but he was pretty hot and he remembered my drink after one time. Maybe its because i ordered a bacardi breezer at like 2pm. They do this thing which they call animation but we would call it kids club or something. There is about 10 or 15 people about 20 years old or so and they play with the little kids and dance with them, push them in the pool and shit. Its actually really cute. I like waking up and going to the pool, dancing along to all the gay songs. It made my morning.... hahaha im so crap. At night the animation guys put on a show. It was a circus theme... We grabbed a couple of drinks and went down there anyways they were dancing with the little kids when we got in there. Me and babas started dancing... as you do... along the back of everyone seated and the man who was doing the lighting saw us and put the spotlight on us. It was hilarious so we danced all the way to our seat. The circus thing got a bit gay so we went to the bar and had some drinks and stared at the hot bartender. Also later on we went to the beach to have a look and that was gay. AAAnd i nearly knackered myself trying to jump over the fence.
The next day we sat by the pool i had a couple of drink and the hot guy gave me free pizza.... Awesome :) That night we went into Jesolo and had dinner. It was yum and quite cheap. We got 2 litres of wine and got a little loose... Its so much cheaper in italy compared to france. We didn't eat out at all in France. There are so many germans in jesolo... i rekon 90 percent of our campsite was german. All the workers around there in shops and at the camp can speak german. They all thought i was german. So after dinner we had a walk around and had a look in a few shops and me ad babas kept holding hands. She was saying stuff like i love you, im so glad i have found you and all this crap in german. All these peeps were looking at us so strangely and we found it hilarious, we had 2 litres of wine, me, jacob and babas. Some german heard us saying and said i love you too hahahah. She had a sense of humour.
The next day we went to venice. It was beautiful but sooooo hot... and then it just got a bit boring and we wanted to get back to the campsite. I'm going there with contiki anyways. Seb left us and did some sightseeing and we were gunna meet him at the boat and 4 and try and get on an earlier one than we booked but he didn't come in time so went to a bar and i drank some more bacardi breezers :)I also bought a lady bug and a heart shaped necklace. That night we went back to the campsite and got insanely drunk. I had some more vodka and then some wine i think... or champagne i dont remember. Then we went to the pool bar i i had sex on the beach... hahahah... and a frozen daquiri, and a couple more bacardi breezers. We were sitting around the bar and then all of a sudden i couldnt find babas. Me and seb went back to the campsite and they werent there. Seb went to sleep and i continued the search. I finally found them and then we went for a swim. This was about 12 or 1am. It was sooooooo much fun. I wouldn't do this in australia but these beaches are so shallow and they have no waves. We just jumped around like nuts and then when we had to jump the fence to get back in the camp security came around, luckily we had our camp IDs on us. I think he sort of laughed at us though cos we were all wet jumping a fence at 1am. I hurt myself jumping back over though cos i was a little trashed. Twas funny.

Soooooo then.... That night we hung out at the hostel again. A bunch of people had made dinner together and had put a bunch of tables together they told us to join the party... So we did. It was awesome. I got a little wasted with this vodka that i had smuggled in, we weren't allowed to bring alcohol inside except for wine, so i put my vodka in a plastic bottle... So classy i know :) I just didn't want a cleaner to throw it out. Earlier we went to this church that was not even a 5 minute walk from our hostel but it had beautiful views of lyon. We took some alcohol with us because we wanted to have a nice drink and look at the views... I just mainly wanted to drink my vodka without the threat of being caught. So we went to the church and babas wanted to go inside, so me and babas took alcohol in the church... Please forgive me god! I think god would think wine was ok but not vodka, jesus did not turn water into vodka.... If i found a man who could do that i would marry him. Anyways back on track... ohhh that day this fucken bird ruined our lunch me and babas bought a salad and went and shared it at place bellecour and this bird with this fucken ugly foot kept coming up to us... I wanted to vom. It was funny though. I couldn't look at it and it turned me off my food, which is very rare for me. So that night i went to bed really late cos i was having so much fun at the party hostel, i also really liked lyon cos none of the shops really opened before 12. There was absolutely no reason to wake up early... All the more reason to stay up and drink 1 euro wine... With pineapple juice of course. So in lyon we did a bit of sightseeing but it was so hot we really struggled. We went to the opera house, to some old amphitheatre ruins and we also went to Parc de la Tête d'Or this massive park where they have a free zoo. On Sunday the 16th we decided we wanted to go swimming but the pool was only open till 2 and it would have been a waste to pay for half a day. Plusssss the pool was crap there was no shade and it was all concrete... So we swam in a fountain and it was awesome fun. The only thing was we got out and we had dog hair all over us and we were like what the F? Not long after we got out about 3 dogs were playing in the fountain, i didn't care though it was an awesome way to escape the heat and the locals were doing it too... They were about 10 years old but who cares! On monday i had a lazy day we went back to the fountain but then it clouded over and started to rain. Babsi went shopping but i had to go back to the hostel and sleep. Too much wine and no sleep catches up with you eventually. So i had a nap because we were heading off to avignon the next day for a few hours then going to nice to meet babsi's boyfriend and another boy and travel with them in a car around more of france. That night once i woke up we hung around at the hostel again, it was so much fun in that hostel in lyon i always found it hard to go to sleep because there was so many awesome people around to talk to. There were alot of germans and also a guy from new zealand and one from adelaide who were cool. I missed talking to people from our side of the world.
The next day we woke up at 6am. We had booked an open ticket for Avignon we thought it was open for the day we wanted to go. Our plans had changed because we originally wanted to go to avignon on sunday. We went back to the train station to change the ticket, and we told them we didn't want to leave on sunday but tuesday. This was a waste of time because the ticket was valid for anytime in one month. So that was ok atleast we didn't have to change the ticket. We woke up, got to the train station at about 8 or something... And then next train wasn't till 11am to avignon this gave us about 2 hours in avignon till we had to catch another train to meet the boys in nice. We just exchanged this ticket for one straight to nice which was dissapointing because babsi really wanted to go to avignon. I hate trains. They break my balls. I was really looking forward to having a car so we could relax and it would be cheaper too.
We got to nice and they boys had already found a hostel for us which was good. On the way to the hostel they were telling us horror stories about it like, it has no doors, we have to sleep on the floor and all this other bullshit. The hostel was pretty good actually... At first glance anyway. It had a pool which was awesome going for a swim was the first thing we did. No more fountains for us! We went to the supermarket and wasted money on a whole bunch of crap because we were hungry. We couldn't keep it either cos the hostel didn't have a fridge... Well they did but we weren't allowed to use it. We drank a little bit but all it did was make me feel even more exhausted so i went to bed.
The next day we went to Monaco. It was a beautiful place and it was amazing to look at all these expensive boats and designer shops. We went to the Prince's Palace, but it was so hot the day we went i didn't really enjoy it that much. It doesn't matter thought cos i think i'm going back there with contiki. The best part of the day was when we went in the water, just before we went back to the car we found this place where you could jump right into the ocean. It had all concrete steps that you could sit on and the water was so deep. There was fishes too! We were hanging out at the hostel that night and we saw Frank the Tank he is a guy who was also at our hostel in Lyon. The boys invited him to come with us to Montpellier. The next day we went to Grasse to a perfume factory with Frank the tank. It was a nice day but i think i'm going there again with contiki... Frick. That night we had a picnic on the beach in Nice, we had to tell Frank that he couldn't come with us to Montpellier cos it was way too cramped with 5 people in the car. It was sad cos frank the tank is awesome.
The next day we drove to Montpellier. We got a campsite and ate some dins then walked to the beach to have a look around. They were cooking seafood and mussels in massive wok things in the restaurants. I have never seen so much seafood in my life. It was like 9pm and they just kept cooking and cooking and cooking. Montpellier was a bit boring at times. The beach was awesome and it was really good to relax but i was sleepy all the time. I think it was because it was so hot. We went into Montpellier to go shopping one of the days which was fun. The weather there was so hot everyday, there was barely a cloud in the sky. Also i ate a baguette every day... So much bread. The bread is so good in france and cheap. We also had a Lidl near us, a cheap german supermarket similar to Aldi, which was good because it saved us alot of moneys.
That’s all I have to say for now :) this keyboard is f-ed and its breaking my balls

We also went to galleria lafayette which has an amazing gold roof but designer shops don't really interest me at all. Everything is so expensive in there i could spend my whole budget on a bag... no thanks, i need drinking money :) Later on we went to this beach that they make during summer along one of the lakes, they put out umbrellas, sand and beach chairs. Its a nice place to relax for a bit when you have been walking all day. That night we met up with the family again and they shouted us dinner... We are so spoilt. Dinner was yum and i actually drank wine. Wine in europe is awesome, it tastes really watered down, it doesn't have a feral after taste. I usually vom if i have wine but lately ive had heaps.
Paris was fun but it is so busy and full of tourists, we only really had 2 full days there and we did all the touristy crap and it gets really annoying when it is so busy everywhere. I wished we could have stayed longer and seen a bit more than just all the main tourist sites but i was also a bit sick of the place and ready to get to a quieter place.
ALSO we had some really weird people in our room, it was a four person room and the other 2 people were japanese. They told us on the first night that there was another friend coming and staying in the room which we thought was weird cos there was no space. The next day came and another guy came into the room and he explained that they had a friend in paris but only one person could stay with him a night so the three guys would swap. The guy that came on the second night was a weirdo he wouldn't stop talking to us. Especially before babsi went to notre dame, i was trying to go back to sleep but he wouldn't shut up. That night i also heard him breathing deeply as we just turned the light off, he was also alone at the room already without his friends when we got back to the hostel. Our bed was a bit broken, we were afraid babsi was going to fall on me in the middle of the night so we put her matress on the floor. In the middle of the night i woke up to find some one had walked to the window but right past my bed. Babsi's matress was pushed up against my bed so i thought they walked over her. In the morning i woke up to find creepy japanese guy sitting on my bed. I think me and babsi woke up at the same moment and i said to the guy WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING? He just stuttered and didn't said some bullshit that didn't make sense. So i said Get off my bed! Now! And he did. Me and babsi looked at each other like what the F and i said in my dodgy german did you move the bed and she said no. After a couple of minutes babsi couldn't help herself and said So what were you doing on her bed? He said he wanted to say goodbye cos it was their last day. It was 7 o'clock in the morning. I said to him i don't know you, i don't want to say goodbye to you, if you had to work early in the morning would you wake you parents up to say goodbye? Most of it i don't think he understood but it made babsi laugh. I didn't realise it was their last day otherwise i probably would have gone off on totally off. Its a good story though... cos nothing that bad happened.
The next morning me and babas went to Lyon. We found a hostel pretty easily and it was an awesome hostel, especially compared to the one in paris which was small and boring and had room lockout from 11am till 5pm. We were on a hill though which totally sucked because we had to walk up it to get back to the hostel everyday. The first day we had a quick look down the hill bought dinner and some alcohol and sat around at the hostel drinking with some german dudes.
The next day went shopping, there are so many places to go shopping in Lyon which i loved.The map that we got showed all the main shopping areas which was the best i was so excited when i realised we could do some awesome shopping instead of being tourists. The town is so cool, there are so many little streets winding around everywhere and little alleyways all over the place. We went to the main square called Place Bellecour, it is the third biggest square in france. I also bought a pair of pant for 7 euros, they are actually pretty cute.
Anyways im about to go to the supermarket with babas so ill write some more maybe tomorrow.... One day ill catch up on this fricken blog but there is so much to say!
BBBBBYYYYYYYYYYYYYEEEEEEEEEEEE
