Meet baby Groot!


Famous for his portrayal in Guardians of the Galaxy 2 he has decided to join me on my epic adventure. Already somewhat of a celebrity he has is own Instagram and can be followed here: https://www.instagram.com/babygrootsworldadventure/ 




We met in May last year and has been a solid member of my weekly pub quiz (we even used him for our team name). Although he gained a slight drinking problem he has reined it  in to save $41 USD (probably to buy more beer on the road). Luckily his passport arrived along with his new luggage, he seems to be better prepared then me! 

Groot would like you to know: 

I am Groot, I am Groot, I am Goot, I am GROOT!

New York City - The City That Never Sleeps (days 7-10)

Day Seven (I’m having issue uploading the blogs with pics at the moment so will have to edit them at a later date). Feeling weary and tired I headed off with my list of things to see and do. Throughout my trip I keep on getting lost and I was trying to figure out why this was such an issue. On previous trips when I’ve been in London and Paris with no wifi and didn’t get as lost. So today I decided to simply use the subway map - no according to google maps it was not the fastest way to get places, however, it solved my lack of direction issues. I wanted to go to the Top of the Rock (Rockefeller Centre) so headed there first. When I got in line I thought there were only a few people - unfortunately the line went around the corner. Once I finally got to get a ticket (30-40 mins later) I was told that the earliest I could go up was in a few hours. I got annoyed as I would not have waited so long had I known this. Thinking I didn’t have enough time for everything I ended up getting a ticket...

Scotland - The land of bagpipes and haggis

Day one: I said farewell to my aunt and cousin today thrn headed up to Edinburgh. It was quick and we arrived in just over four hours. Stepping off the train and getting out of the station was breathtaking. The gardens and monuments were amazing. I ended up walking to my hostel as it was only 10 mins down the road. Let’s just say this is the best hostel so far on my trip. Modeled like Japanese pods you get you bunk which has a curtain you can close for privacy. It does not feel claustrophobic and there is more than enough space for myself and all of the things I need during the night. I had slept for most of my train ride up and was still exhausted so dragged myself out for food before having an early night. Day two: I started the day on a hop on, hop off bus as I had bought a 48 hour pass on three different routes. I went to visit the Castle first as I had booked a ticket online. You can see why this castle would never be breached as it sits upon a volcanic rock. It was interesting to...

Union Station is amazing!  I arrived in the afternoon and walking from Union Station across the road to find my Uber I had a rather strange experience with a homeless man. He attempted to assist me - I did say a number of times that I didn’t need his help, however, he persisted. Luckily my Uber arrived and he gave me some advice on how to deal with people like that going forward. Arriving at my new hostel I was quite impressed as there was a restaurant / bar downstairs which means I could stay in for the evening.  Day One: The following morning I had to head back to Target to exchange some tee shirts and my jeans that had the security tag left on! Luckily I did because I managed to buy this Lego set that has technically not been released. I also managed to pick up some much more comfortable shoes.  I then went on a hop on hop off bus tour of the city. Although it was interesting to see the many landmarks I don’t think the tour guides were well trained as they seemed to be...
