6 countries in 2 days......




and only 5 disasters!
We missed the ferry because of an accident on the way!
When we got to Amsterdam it was total chaos, I am totally confused as to why anyone likes the place! Stoners!! The road system is madness, I nearly killed a cyclist and then drove down a tram line and got flustered into driving down the left side.... I wanted to cry and am never going back again.
Next we were in Germany and Netley wanted me to pull over at a truck stop, it was very late and we couldn't find a place to park and so I pulled onto the grass.... oops! 3.1tonnes and wet grass don't go together very well..
We tried to ask truckers for help but they did'nt understand us just laughed at us. We had to wait until the morning and we asked some Polish truckers who still didn't understand us but they didn't laugh at us until they saw how badly stuck we were.... It took 10 truckers and an articulated lorry to push/pull us out! Go team Poland!!
Then after driving for about 30 minutes a mental pulled out in front of me doing about 50 and I was doing 70 so I had to swerve to avoid him which made the drivers side wheels leave the road and the ambulance nearly tipped over.. :(
We filled up the tank in Denmark and OMG!!!
We have also both lost our bank cards.
On a lighter note Sweden is awesome, very friendly people, some of which had come miles to see us... People even bought our work. We now have 800 krona for 4 ceramic heads, we have no idea how much that is worth!!
