Getting Ready...

semi-overcast 11 °C

Hi,

Welcome to our blog, we hope you enjoy reading it as much as we are going to hopefully enjoy our travels!

Firstly for those who don't know, (and for those that should know and can't figure it out)Team Domro is our wonderful cheesy term for myself (Roisin) and my boyfriend (Dom). We have decided that it is definately time to take a break from the hectic lifestyle and rat race that is Dublin to explore places slightly further afield than Cork - (Don't worry, we still love you Cork - Go Cork Republica!).

The Trip...
The countdown is now less than two months although too much to count in days. Firstly, we fly out to Beijing on the 9th January 2007, from there a couple of days later, we are joining up with an organised tour group for a 10 day trip all the way to Hong Kong. We then have another few days to relax after what im sure is going to be an exhausting (yet fantastic) journey. From Hong Kong we fly down to Bangkok where we have just over three weeks to overland from Thailand through Malaysia to Singapore. Continuing from Singapore we fly to Delhi where we will spend about a week exploring before flying to Mumbai. The last leg of our trip will be overland from Mumbai around southern India where we finally fly out of Bangalore.

While most things are organised (I say organised, however there is no such thing as a booklet called 'how to organise your travelling') the finer details are still left untouched...oh and the accommodation - like I said, minor stuff!! Nevermind, 56 and a half days left to go...maybe its not too far away to start a countdown.

We will try to record and share as many memorable experiences as we can and hopefully provide useful information to others looking to travel or just to keep you entertained during your lunchbreak.

Here is to a wonderful trip..

Hi Guys, sounds like yous are having a amazing trip. The old five aside hasn't been the same since you left Heno, its got better. Only joking! Glad to see ya got your birthday pressie from Liverpool.

Ya have to start posting some pics up. For all we know yous are hiding out in the apartment making this shit up. If Neil Armstrong can do it any one can.

Hope you and Roisin are having a great time. High Mao from me, best Communist leader ever.
