Thanks for a fantastic trip. Everyone of you made my day at one pointor another and it wouldn't have been the same if even one person hadn't been
able to make it

Hello

I have awoken from the darkness! As many of you might have heard, good ol' Toronto, and parts of the Northeastern U.S. was subject to the biggest blackout in 30 some odd years.

I should also throw out some "mad props" to everyone that's replied so far - it's great to hear from all of you, and it's especially great to hear that you're all as miserable about being home as I am. Brings a tear to my eye, really. Double props to ****** for a brilliant email. Who knew you were so clever...and where was that witt for 16 days man? C'est formidable. ****** me ol' chalk and slate, that email seriously reminded me a lot of Simpsons season four, episode six. Yeah, you know what I'm talking 'bout.Make sure you all keep that line of communication open. Word up.Playing with his remote (not what you think),

Hey Everybody!
No, it's not Doctor Nick. I've been doing pretty well. I've been busy with work and stuff, so I'm still a little lagged, but I think that I'm almost better. However, some of my friends came into town to go search for houses, so I need to go party with them or something...Talk to you all later, I hope,

Hey Everyone,

I just got access to email again and like *****and *****, I was happy
to see all of the email traffic! I haven't read all the messages yet, but I just wanted to let everyone know that I had a great, great time on the trip - thanks!!! Hope everyone is doing well and has made the adjustment
back to "normal" life. Too bad life can't just be one long contiki trip.Talk soon,

****

A warm "hello" to you all!!!

I just got back from Croatia two days ago and*****told me that there was a crap load of emails from all of you. I thought he must be joking as I didn't have any emails from any of you in my inbox :(So then I checked my junk mail.....and there you all were! I don't know how email with titles such as "video of girl having sex on a horse" can make it into my inbox but legit ones stay out....gotta love Bill Gates. Sorry for all the missed emails.....if you were waiting for a response from me and I didn't respond to your email....sorry...I never had a chance to read it.You guys were truly a great group to travel with! I'm glad I travelled with you and not the geeks that ***** and *****e ran into!

HELLO, CHEERS and WHATSUP MATE,
THE UNITED STATES was so nice to get back to after spending a month in Europe. Tiny cars, ______ SERVICE, Cigarette Smoke, and Lack of AC inside buildings made me realize how great it is in the United States.
No, really(I AM GOING THRU THE CONTIKI BLUES). It was nice meeting everyone and I miss all of youâ?¦.. Except for the (Bloody Aussies) and I had to say it, but yes I miss all of the Australians as well. I will give them some Love. Next Contiki trip I want to see Adelaide and then tour The (prison colony) I mean Australia.

Thanks to everyone for sending me all the pictures of me from Amsterdam. I Think they will help my Political Career greatly when running for Senator of Georgia against Justin Timberlake. It was a wild time all over Europe Y'all would loose your minds if you saw how health conscious I am over here it is like night and day. Europe was night and I left it all over there. I hope everyone got all there craziness out of there systems because I sure did.But, Seriously I will miss all of you. You are all very special people who's memories I will cherish.If any of you are ever in Atlanta DON'T HESITATE to call.

God Bless,

Hi Guys,

Well haven’t we all been busy with the emails? Me and **** just got back today from the rest of our little adventure to find about 50 emails waiting mostly from “the crew”, which is great, except now it makes me realize that we’re back home as well, well sort of, in London. So I guess we’ll just join in the mutual sooking about not being on holiday anymore. I just uploaded a few photos onto*******s site, so there’s some there to look at. Some really cool ones actually, especially the ones where everyone’s pissed in Engelberg. Anyway, hope all u guys are great. Sounds like everyone’s settling back into normal life. Get this – on Friday night **** and I were back in Rome (just 4 a few days) at the end of our trip, and we were walking down towards Trevi Fountain looking for a place to eat when we saw, guess who, Justine leading her next tour group on exactly the same walk she took us on. Which probably isn’t that surprising when it was the same day and the same place, but still, it was something I didn’t really expect. And on the bright side, all her new tour looked like nerdy no fun plebs, so lets get this right right now. WE were the cool tour. Now, everyone feel better? Good.

So yeah, back to work now in sunny London, just going to work our arses off so we can do some more traveling. Like you guys, we definitely have the bug. It was so much fun. Some of those late night chats in the hotel bars were absolute classics. Hope you all keep in touch, I know its easy to say but it dose take a bit of effort, and to those of u in London (*****,******,*******) I think I can hear Fabric calling. Hope ****** is better, *** has unstuck himself from his computer, **** is still a porno king - I tried my best for you mate, ******, good luck with the smoking, ******, that’s a different language man, and all u Americans, what exactly are “props”? The website should be great *******. Oh, and hi to u too *****. Caught the name. And everyone else, ******,****,***,*****, ****,***,*******,****,***,*******,***,******,*****,all the *****,****,**** (love your podium style), *****,********,******,******,**** and*****Yes and *****. There, everyone gets a mention. The highlight for me was definitely Monaco. I’m thinking of building my summer house there. Yeah right! Also, unlike the rest of you, I still hate that move your feet song. Thanks guys for the trip of a lifetime. **** and me enjoyed every minute of it so keep in touch and we may just see a few of you again sometime.

Hi guys!
Thanks for your e-mails. Glad that everyone got back to
wherever they were going ok. Sounds like we've all got a bad case of the
back-from-holiday blues though (me included). I totally agree with
what everyone's said so far – it was a great trip, with brilliant people, and I had a fantastic time. Wish we were all still there, on a perpetual Contiki cruise around Europe.

By the way ***, Are you a student or what? You should have done an Arts degree – far fewer lectures per week. But I guess you'll earn a load more money than us arty people ever will. Then you'll be able to go back to Monte Carlo in a Ferrari and live the high life at the Grand Casino! I might get back there some day too but I'll just be one of those annoying people that stand there having their photo taken with the flashy cars. No wait, already done that – the girl has no shame!

Getting back to reality stinks after such a cool holiday. I'm trying to find a job to finance my return to student life – no luck so far. I'm not too gutted about it at the moment – I've got a ton of other stuff to be getting on with while I'm looking. Still, every so often I catch myself thinking things like 'This time a fortnight ago we were all in Florence showing the locals some nifty dance moves at Space'. Well, sort of. I almost find myself wishing that my local sold Glacier Ice or whatever that blue stuff in Austria was called. Almost.

Well, that's it for the time being. Hope you're all ok and things are going well. ****** hope you guys have a great time with Justine when you see her. Say hi from me!Take care everyone, and hope to hear from you all v.soon.

Loads of love from ***** x x x

Well hello there everyone!!!

Thought i would finally get up and write an email. ****and i did make
it home after that long bloody flight and since then have just been
trying to get back into some type of sleeping pattern before we have to start work again. We got all of our photos back finally, all 11 rolls
and at least 7 of then r from contiki. Went alittle photo mad i think.. But we got all depressed looking throu them and seeing everyone + everywhere we went. As everyone has said that tour was the best 16 days of my life and if one of us was not on that tour bus it would not have been the same. Everyone of u guys had a special quailty that made everymoment a special one.

Its been great to hop on the computer everyday and have emails from everyone and to know that u guys r all missing our trip just as much as i am. I am really missing been driven around everywhere as Pauly did
such a great job. Now i have to drive myself everywhere and to stop me
from falling asleep like i did all the time in the bus, i have the wake
up song bursting out
full blast.... Problem is none of my friends know it back here so they
all think im strange when im playing it. U try to explain it to them and they just dont understand the meaning of it.. Likewise showing them the roundabout in Paris, i sit there cracking myself up everytime i
play it and they just dont get how much fun that was. But they do love ***s dance on the bus... If ur in Australia and free *** ive got plenty of girls ready for u!!!

Well sounds like everyone is slowly getting back into the bloody normal life routine. I sit and think Justine and Pauly would both be on another tour now although not as fun as ours was. And here we all r back in our native countrys. Well most of us anyways.

Abit excited thou cus in just under 2 weeks Justine will b ere in Brissie and we r gonna meet up for a girls nite out. The Brisbane nite scene isnt gonna know what hit them. And frankly im alittle scared to. Nah we love Justine and know it is gonna be a fun nite.

Well as i said it has been great hearing from everybody as it all seems that we r missing that contiki lifestyle. Well i have to go cus have plans c tonite Australia r playing New Zealand again in the Rugby so i have to go out and support my country. And NO ***** and ***** there r no bets on this game.... Thank god.Well hope everyone keeps in contact and will b hearing from everyone shortly ( as we have to plan the reunion)!!! Not just yet anyway.

Miss you all guys,
******
