Scott. Posted July 18, 2009 Share Posted July 18, 2009 I just had to fork out £50 for yellow fever for Kenya. Bleh, the Nurse told me to visit South America now as I'm injected for it. What is Cyprus like? I have never been? Also does anyone have like a top ten wish list for places to visit? Cyprus is a beautiful place, full of ancient Greek building etc. It's ideal for young people (Ayia Napa) and the elder people who would go to visit ancient Greek landmarks. In Cyprus you are almost guranteed sunshine for everyday of the summer and there is only a few days of rain in the winter. Personally, I found Cyprus a bit boring, because I am a 16 year old who doesn't want to lie around in the sun all day, I actually want to do something active. However if you want a relaxing holiday, it is the place for you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bear Posted July 18, 2009 Author Share Posted July 18, 2009 I can imagine Disney World would lose its appeal. I can't stand London because I used to live too close and it annoyed me. I don't like relaxing holidays, I like to be seeing famous landmarks and doing things. Laying on a beach seems dull to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thomas. Posted July 18, 2009 Share Posted July 18, 2009 Newcastle and Sunderland was fun, I want to go again. It's the first time I've properly been in England since I lived in York. The Geordie dialect is sort of confusing but because my mum was born in Newcastle, it made it much easier to understand. The flooding of the roads on the way there was sort of dreadful, there was a van who had crashed into the hedge on the way and the puddles were about three inches deep. I will start packing for London and Burgess Hill ('the SOUTH' according to the M1/A1 motorway signs) on Tuesday so I have Wednesday and Thursday to enjoy. The trip is going to be tiring like today (I ought to go to bed really, I'm half asleep after being in the car around 7 hours today). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LDoubleU Posted July 18, 2009 Share Posted July 18, 2009 Pretty depressing since I'm not actually going anywhere this year. At all. 18 now and having to provide for myself, so yeah, sucks. Parents are taking a few weeks away though, so it'll be pretty awesome to have the time to do what the fuck I want (probably actually not be at home at all :/)Got some wheels though now, and a small job, so probably just restrict my travels to a few road trips and possibly a day/2 on a booze cruise to France. So yeah, alot of just bumming around at random friend's houses and waking up in strange places with a headache. That's enough for me, though. Amen to that! Mishes for the win =] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Bossman Posted July 18, 2009 Share Posted July 18, 2009 My mum is thinking about booking a holiday in Italy. I'd love to go there. I've been to places like NY, Paris, Barcelona, so Italy would be excellent. Not sure for how long, or when we're going, if ever, but it could be a weekend break. 3 days, or maybe even a week. We haven't even started looking for hotels yet, so it's at least a month away, if not longer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you going to Brighton? @Bateman don't bother going to Naples in Italy, its quite scummy. Sorrento is meant to be lovely. But Naples looks like the slums, I was quite scared when I went there, also the drivers are the worst is Naples then other city in Europe. Why is driving so scary in Europe, I thought I was going to die in Denmark. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think I'll be going to Brighton, I'll be spending most of the time down there with my cousins and one day in London. I'm hoping to form some better relations with my cousins so that I can spend more time with them. Naples is not recommended. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WRX22B1998 Posted July 19, 2009 Share Posted July 19, 2009 hmmm its winter here but ... NOWHERE!!

The Bossman Posted July 19, 2009 Share Posted July 19, 2009 @ Bear, it'll probably be Milan or Rome we'll go to, or one of the classic cities. Not the other places like Naples. Not sure which one would be better to go to. The Leaning Tower of Pisa might be interesting, but I don't know the sort of places that Milan has either.

Bear Posted July 19, 2009 Author Share Posted July 19, 2009 Pisa is meant to be dirty, I havent been but my friend did.

WRX22B1998 Posted July 21, 2009 Share Posted July 21, 2009 You guys are lucky, I've only ever been out of Australia once. That was to Fiji like 4 years ago, that was pretty cool except I got sort of bored there since it was just my family there. Until I found the jetski hire that was epic fun.

Bear Posted July 24, 2009 Author Share Posted July 24, 2009 We got out Kenyan Shillings yesterday and stupid Marks and Spencer only gave us the smallest notes. So we have 86000 Shillings in 200s It looks like we are on a drug deal or something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
