Right, not entirley sure where to start with this, not really a lad of many words usually!! Well here goes anyway!
 Cant believe my travellings actually come around.........finally! I realise ive been annoying you all for a fair while cracking on about where im going and what im going to be doing, so at least you dont have to listen to that anymore, you now get to look at what im doing now instead, im sure that will be much more enjoyable for you all! Im actually writing this on the plane, the robbing gits at heathrow wanted me to pay for the pleasure of wifi so thought id get something down on the plane ready for when i finally get to my hostel in Rio (Have i mentioned im heading to Rio?!) Anyway the plane ride has been abit of a bumpy affair so far not to mention very very long, watched three films and 4 tv shows, had my dinner and still have another 4 hours left!! Hence me babbling on about a load of rubbish most of probably couldnt care less about, while listening to the Fleet Foxes (who i have a new found love for!) on the suprisingly impressive BA music collection! Just had to retype half of that last paragraph due to the rather large fellow sat in front of me getting up (and squashing the seat into me) to go to the loo for what i swear is the 20th time this flight!Right, i am running out of things to write so shall let you all get off to usual business and will try and update my blog as poss over the up and coming flights.
 Actually, one last thing (honestly!) while im on here, id like to say a massive thankyou to my Dad and Jude (retyped again, large guy in front decided to do a little dance i think!) anyway, yea.... a massive thankyou to my Dad and Jude as without them i wouldn't be sat on this plane typing this rubbish to you all (mainly due to the fact Dad bought my netbook and also bought me to the actual airport!!) haha anyway they've helped me out massivily; fianancially, with equipment and also with moral support in general! And finally a huge thanks to my Mum, again i wouldn't be sat on this plane without her help either. Shes been with me and supported me every step of the way over the past few months not just financially but putting up with me in general at home for the past year! Right enough of this soppy rubbish, i just really wanted to send my massive massive thanks across the atlantic to them!! Well...... thats wasted 30mins! Try and find yet another film to watch now and im sure all my happy readers will look forward to the next installment of my travels!! 
Byesey bye, mucho love and i miss you all!!Nick xxxx

Actually while my uploading this might as well add that i did in fact get to my hostel fine last night after what felt like was going to be a near death cab ride anyway! Indicators and lanes dont really seem to mean anything over here!

Instead of going to bed like a sensible person would after a 12 flight i decided instead to head out to a boat party in cobana which was pretty cool, combination of all you drink and eat with amazing views of the Rio coastline! However once again the bus ride down, an adventure in its self, this time red light apparently dont mean anything either!!

Right, that really is it, it 40 degrees and ive got a certain copacabana beach to be getting down to with maybe a favela tour this afternoon and Christ the Redeemer tomorrow!

Bye again!!xxxxxx
