So we have finally arrived in the land of Toronto, Canada . Flight from London to Toronto with Air Transat was SHIAAAT! As our luggage that we have been carrying for the last 7 months did not fly with us and instead remained at Gatwick airport, London. After, an hour of searching for our luggage that was not even in the country, going through customs and immigration and all the chaos I managed to become a Canadian Immigrant, annnnnnd unpacking our Sydney stuff that was shipped over earlier in the year, attending weddings, buying furniture, opening bank accounts and getting a tax file number i think it's safe to say that our first week in Toronto has not been easy. The inevitable has arrived.
As promised our highlights and lowlights from our makin' moves across the globe journey:
Uriah's top five Highlights:
- Gibbons Experience in Bokeo Nature Reserve, Laos.
- Diving in the Similan Islands, Thailand.
- Eating Banana Que on the beaches of Boracay, Philippines.
- Tailor Frenzy in Hoi An, Vietnam.
- Sumo Wrestling Tournament in Nagoya, Japan.
Lowlights: well not much mostly all the long bus rides from one country to another.
Derek's top five Highlights:
- Back alley neighbourhood Cockflights; Pardo, Cebu, Philippines.
- Zip lining at the Gibbons Experience, Northern Laos.
- Exploring Kampot & Bokor, Southern Cambodia.
- Trekking, Northern Thailand.
- Eating whatever you want, whenever you want everyday and paying virtually nothing for it in Asia!
Lowlights:
- Paris, France in August!! The hordes of tourists is overwhelming.
- The third and last day of our Similan Island dive trip when I had tooth and sinus problems and couldn't dive.
- One morning a few weeks ago when I realised our trip was ending and that we would have to get jobs!
It is weird that our 7 months journey around the world has ended so fast for us, but stay tuned everyone as there may be makin' moves across the globe part 2. We are looking at 5 months in South America and a possible Trans Serbia trip from Russia to China and on to Nepal, Tibet and India. Maybe even a return to South East Asia to see the stuff we did not cover on this trip and finally New Zealand. Of course, this is not going to happen any time soon unless we win the lottery. You will all be informed.
We would like to thank all of our followers we hope that you all have been entertained and this is only a goodbye..... for now.

Much love,
uriah and derek xoxoxoxox

Uriah and Derek,
I have no idea what I'm going to do with myself. I might have to find some strangers that are doing what you have done for 7 months and pretend I know them. (I don't think its classed as stalking)
Oh I just had an idea! You could put a web came in your lounge room. Although Derek you would have to reframe from scracthing certains parts of your body as I already see enough of that from Mat.
On a more serious note I have enjoyed viewing your blog each week. Uriah make sure you send me emails with updates and I will do the same.
Take care
Skye

Thanks for reading,
Uriah and Derek
