So the experience was one of the best things all of us have ever done.

We started our way down to pamps for the running of the bulls - one of the best rushes we have ever had from the opening day to the morning of the run - it was great, awesome atmosphere to be in.

After we had finished up in pamps we headed across spain for the bilbao BBK music festival which was a 3 day show which had some awesome gigs on show. We then went down to lagos, Portugal for 2 weeks - one of the best places to party, i think, anywhere in the whole trip.  we had some crazy nights in lagos with all the van tour, there was a messy camp site haha.

We then went into the centre of spain to Madrid.  It was alright, we only stayed there for the day then headed for Barcelona. After spain we made our way into Nice and Monaco which were awesome, we loved every bit of it. Then we got to cinque terre which was one of the best places we went -  massive rock jumps and alot of walking.

We then got to Rome, one of the most interesting places in Europe.  There was alot to see, pub crawls to be crawled and hang overs to recover from. Thats basically the whole 3 months haha. Then we made the biggest mistake of our trip.  We went to Naples.  We left our van locked up in a very touristy spot, covered our stuff, we were gone 1 hour.  Got back and we had nothing but a van.  They took our bags,food ,cooking gear,laptops,one wallet.  We basically had nothing but board shorts, wife beater and our passports.  It was hard to get back from but we eventually got through it and kept on trucken through to the Greek isles where we went to Ios and Santorinie, it was amazing there it had everything - the beach, the clubs, the sun and the campsite - far out camping went off.

We then got on our long boat trip back to italy and headed for Florence and Venice which were really good.Then we got to Split, Croatia,  we had some fun out there going over to Havar for 4 nights drinking ourselves stupid then came back to split then headed for lake bled.   This would be the most picturesque place in europe, it was amazing. After we had done all that we started to head inland to Budapest,Vienna and Prague.  We found pub crawls at all of these places and made the most of the awesome cities.

We are now towards the end of our trip with about 3 weeks left so we headed to Berlin before heading to Oktoberfest.  Berlin was great,  a lot to see,  we did a bike tour of the city,  seen the berlin wall had a ball there. Then we were in Munich for Oktoberfest and the big one -  Van tour 100s Club - one of the best experiences of the trip, it was dirty fun and there were a lot of drunk van tour boys and girls,  funnels everywhere which was compulsory on van tour.  Each van had to have a funnel (beer Bong) for 3 months. Then the beer fest kicked off and as us aussies do,  we got stuck into alot of steins.

We left our beer drinking week for Belgium and Amsterdam,  our last stops of the trip.   Overall the trip was awesome,  had ups and had its downs but would do it again in a second.  The van never broke down,  got us were we wanted to go,  it was a good van. We travelled the whole trip in convoy with alot of over vans making the trip even better.  Made friends for life.  I give van tour a 10 out of 10 for the best trip you could do with a bunch of mates.
