I wish you were beer ..... uh, I mean I wish you were here.

Its been a hectic past couple of weeks traveling here, there and everywhere. Being shown around, showing friends around and discovering new places. Seeing family, catching up with old friends and making new ones. No matter where I've gone though, there's always been a beer that needs drinking.

I don't have much time to put in an in-depth report of events, as I'll be on my way again soon and can only do so much with the time I have. Hopefully the pictures say the 1000 words I don't have time to write, this is just a show of highlights.

If you'd like me to expand on anything later, let me know and I'll see what I can do.

I can't play the trumpet either

Apparently you can make a handsome profit from selling old Communist paraphenalia.

I'd like to say thanks to all the people that looked after us, the locals that put up with us and to anyone along the way that served us beer that was cold.
