DAY 4

So, last nite we partied on the roof top of the Hilton Hotel we were staying at in Athens. It was for the much anticipated Gumball 'White Party' (a little bit like P.Diddy's infamous White Parties) where everybody wears, wait for it - yep, WHITE. Highlights of the night for me were: The AMAZING View of Athens and it's ancient ruins which we had from the hotel. And our new Fire Breathing Friend Vanessa, who performed a show of her fire breathing skills (look out for first fire breathing lesson on Overdrive - http://www.mtv.co.uk/gumball)

This morning we heard we could finally pick up our cars from the airport and guess what, actually Drive them on this thing called the GUMBALL 3000 - Unbelievable. Ok so, Producer Man James then started to get over excited and tried to rush myself and MTV's International Man of Mystery - Wiqar, down to breakfast before we'd had a chance to spruce ourselves up.....! Yeah right, come on Jimbob don't be silly.

Right things were looking up. When I finally finished looking at myself in the mirror and watching Wiqar 'Style' his hair, I went and warphed down my free breakfast in record time. Every one loves a free breakfast right?

After a mission of a cab ride to get to pick up our cars at the airport, trust ours to be the very LAST, yes I said that word again LAST...to be let out of Cargo! Why are we always Last????

Anyways after a million and one things going wrong fror us over the course of the last few hours, we're finally on our way to Albania. Picture this: I'm writing this blog in a BP Petrol station in the Greek mountains right now. We're in the middle of nowhere. We're still in LAST place but get this, we're not alone. We're with the 'Fuel Girls' & Co (another set of Gumballers). Their Bentley Continental got a buckled wheel, so in true Gumball style we stopped off to help. The Man. U Vs AC Milan Game is playing on tv in the background (...yep that's right, in the petrol station) and it's more like we've stopped off round some old greek guys house for dinner. There's armchairs, we're all eating the snacks from the shop (for FREE - My favourite word again) it's great. Only 8hours drive to go until we get to Albania...if you're gonna be late, might as well be late with a bit style...how about 8hours worth.

Speak to you tomorrow. I'm starting to get real tired now. It's about 22:15 local time (we're two hours ahead of the uk). I might try and con Producer Man James to drive, he's not very clever once the Sun starts to go down. I'll let you know how I get on.
