Hey Y'all, Well its been some time since we last wrote and we have been up to lots, as always! Since leaving Phoenix, Arizona, we arrived in Wyoming to stay with family. Since we have been here we have travelled around and spent time in Colorado, Wyoming, Utah, Idaho, Montanna and South Dakota. During this time we have been camping american style, played in a mud volleyball tournament, been to a baseball match, hiked in the rocky mountains, been to a water park, toured the Budweiser factory, went to a rodeo, attended a family reunion (that wasnt either of our families!), [View Full Entry]

Howdy all, Well we are at last here in our final destination of our trip, the USA and after spending three and a half months travelling through South America, it is all change.....again! After a long couple of days and a night on the Lima Airport floor, and taking off from San Salvador in a tropical monsoon like thunder and lightening storm we finally arrived in Los Angeles and headed for the hostel. We were greeted at the airport by our first crazy American who picked us up in a van blasting out old school american rock at four in the [View Full Entry]

Well, over a year after booking it finally arrived! Hey everyone, after some recent ups and downs we have had a fantastic last four days hiking through the cloud forest, sleeping under canvas and eventually arriving at the amazing Inca site of Macchu Picchu! We had been preparing ourselves for the Inca Trail here in Peru for a long time and the 27th of May was our beginning....or so we thought! The day before we found out that there was a national strike in Peru on the following (our departure) day which meant that it would be too dangerous to leave [View Full Entry]

Hey there folks, well following our last blog from San Pedro in northern Chile after our triumphant return from Bolivia we promised that we would blog just a few days later with some amazing photos of our time there and the 4 day tour that we took from Uyuni back into Chile where we saw the worlds biggest and most dazzling salt flats, flamingos, smoking volcanos, steaming geysers and high altitude coloured lakes where we reached over 5100 meters altitude and slept under a tin roof at more than minus 15 degrees! Overall, we had so much to tell and more [View Full Entry]

Hey all, Again it seems like soo long ago that we last updated you with our travels, and since then we have again covered a lot of miles! We left Iguazu Falls in Argentina and decided to head west and across into Bolivia for the next chunk of our trip. This was easier said than done and we boarded our first overnight bus which took us 25 hours to a town called Tucuman (still in Argentina) where we then had a wait of 13 hours before our next 12 hour night bus to the boarder town of Salvador Mazza. We eventually [View Full Entry]

Hey there everyone! The last time we wrote we had just left Buenos Aires and were in Rosario the birth place of Che Guevara and the Argentine flag. After spending a few days there we headed North to Puerto Iguzu, the home of the incredible Iguazu falls! After a 17 hour bus journey we arrived at the small town, which is right on the Brazil and Paraguay boarder. The town itself was kind of strange, it was a nice place with lots of modern bars and restaurants (which seemed really strange as it was in the middle of no where with [View Full Entry]

Now, as you have probably gathered from our past blogs, neither Alice or I are big "city people", however, there is always an exception to the rule and Buenos Aires is it!! We began in Bariloche, the south american chocolate town and spent a few more days by the lakes and mountains before heading north on our 25 hour bus journey! It was the longest we have done so far and wasn´t without a story, of course! About 7 hours into the journey we came to a blockaded road where protesters had completely shut it off and cutting the south from [View Full Entry]

Right...here we go again, we have lots to tell since we last wrote. After leaving Pucon we hopped on a bus which took us three and a half hours down the road to Valdivia, a small German settled town just inland on the river. We only stayed for one night but while we were there we wandered around the local fish market where the fishermen were filleting their catch and tossing the scraps over their shoulder in to the river to feed the Giant Sea Lions who would swim up and catch the fish in their mouths or flop up on [View Full Entry]

Hola everybody! Well we have now been in Chile for a week and a half and how things have changed for us! We are back on the road covering huge distances and finding exciting new places and people already! We arrived in Santiago and spent a couple of days there finding our feet and catching up as over the previous 48 hours we had taken three flights, been through 4 time zones and crossed the international date line meaning that we arrived almost before we left 16 hours before!! From Santiago we caught a bus and headed South for a small [View Full Entry]

Well our time in Oz is almost over, as most of you know we decided to move our flight to Chile forward and now leave on Wednesday! Since we last wrote we have gladly left potato picking and Bundaberg behind us and have spent our last week relaxing before a long flight. Our first stop after a 12 hour bus journey was Airlie beach where we just spent one night before heading on up to Magnetic Island and our last stop, Townsville. Magnetic Island was where Captain Cook first landed around 1770, we spent 3 nights in a beach bungalow 3 [View Full Entry]
