New Plans!
Hello!
All systems are go here now that we have finalised some travel plans. We are booked aboard a passenger carrying freighter in transit to Australia. All being as it should be, we should arrive in Melbourne mid to late February. In the meantime we are preparing to leave Seattle and finally get out of Bart and Lauren's house. They have been fantastic to put up with us for this long while we got ourselves sorted out travel-wise, and we are hoping that at some point we can repay their generosity.
Tracy is currently speaking with a hostel in Sacramento (California) about staying there on our way down the country. We are planning to stay in a few hostels on the way down the west coast - including Flagstaff, Arizona where we can drop by the Grand Canyon! This is all pretty cool, but we do have to get there by bus - which kinda sucks - but at least it's cheap! In the meantime, we have a couple of days to get everything finalised before we're off (and leave free Internet behind - yikes!) so we're making some frantic preparations.
So last night grungy Seattle finally caught up with me and I now look like this:
No, that's not a coffee stain around my chops. I'll probably shave it off tomorrow, but it makes me look slightly different. Hopefully it's enough to fool the FBI. I'm not quite sure who I look like - I was kinda going for a Gordon Freeman look:
But I've got some way to go with the beard - not to mention the glasses... Also, what the hell is going on with my hair?
Maybe I look more like that guy from neighbours?
Scary!

What's with the goatee? Time for a shave methinks.
Egg says "Call him weirdy beardy wiskas wilks" and "he looks like the guy from south park".
I say "What next sideburns?" and forget the Gordon Freeman look and go for the George Foreman - Beefcake".

Wow - you're up early! Or late? I can't remember any more...
The guy from South Park is a good call.

Does anyone other than tamble post comments on this? I like the beard anyway.
Does the freighter stop anywhere? Think of all those interesting pacific islands.........

Yikes! Ma likes the beard - time to find myself a razor :-P
In answer to your question: No. It's pretty much Tom, me and the occasional Leebster.
Unfortunately, the freighter only stops in Oz. We may have to revisit the Pacific Islands - or get trips from NZ. We need to get to Easter Island at least. Where is that anyway? Time for a quick look at wikipedia.
