                    <title>Visiting "La Isla Bonita"</title>
                    <description>Belize it or not here we are....We started our morning in New York caught our first flight at 3.20am changed planes in San Salvador and finally arrived in Belize City. Here we had two options... Either we took a taxi to the dock and then a water taxi to the island or we just pay a little bit extra and fly for 15min to the island of San Pedro.It didn't take too much to convince Suz to fly and t</description>

                    <description>We were hoping for it and we did get to celebrate a white christmasBut first we had to get there. We flew for around 14 hours disembarked in LA passed immigration collected our luggage walked through customs just to hand our luggage back in and get back on the same plane and same seats.... Anyway another 5 hours later we landed in New York and were able to see that everything was white and c</description>

                    <title>Getting older in Koh Tao</title>
                    <description> A few months ago when we were planning our trip we told ourselves that we wanted to finish up somewhere where we could relax and do nothing for a few days. Our decision fell on the island of Koh Tao.To get there from Khao Lak we first had to cross to the other side of the country and the best way to do it was to take a local bus to Takuapa and there catch another bus to Surat Thani. The trip from</description>

                    <description> Visiting Khao Lak was not part of the original plan but after a few pleas and a guilt trip we decided to make a quick visit and visit our friends there... and we're glad that we didGetting there was no problem.... we just caught a flight from Bangkok to Phuket and were then lucky enough to have the luxury of being picked up at the airport always niceWe booked our tickets to Phuket through AirA</description>

                    <description> We arrived in Kanchanaburi at noon and the minibus dropped us off on the door step of our chosen accomodation...We checked in at VN Guesthouse and got a decent room with a double bed and fan that was located in a raft bungalow on the river for only 275 baht which is around AUD9 dollars. We knew we had found a good deal but later on when we found out that the place offered free WiFi we KNEW we ha</description>

                    <title>Ayutthaya The Old Capital...</title>
                    <description> Since Ayutthaya is only located around 90km north of Bangkok it's very easy to visit it via a day trip and there are many operators offering tours. Suz and I decided to stay over there for one night instead.Ayutthaya served as the country's capital from 1350 to 1767 and is full of ruins from that time....Instead of taking a bus we decided to get there by train so we made our way to the train sta</description>

                    <description> No not that City of Angels we're in Krung Thep meaning City of Angels and better known as.... BangkokAnd this is just a shortened version of its official Thai name. If we were to translate it all we would end up with Great City of Angels Repository of Divine Germs Great Land Unconquerable Grand and Prominent Realm Royal and Delightful Capital City Full of Nine Noble Gems Highest Roy</description>

                    <description> As we mentioned in our last blog we decided to do a short day trip to Slovenia and its capital Ljubljana.Since we already had the train tickets we just showed up at the train station in Zagreb grabbed a quick breakfast and then jumped on our train early to be able to get seats together.Luckily we managed to get two seats next to each other in a cabin that we shared with another Australian coup</description>

                    <description> Arriving in Split was a bit of an anticlimax we'd had so much fun on the islands in the adriatic sea But all good things come to an end...Since Alex and Laura were catching an overnight train to Zagreb that evening they were not going to be out looking for accomodation. Suz Trina and I managed to find an older lady offering rooms. We followed her for about 10min and were actually shown the be</description>

                    <description> Arriving in Hvar all of us still wanted to see if we could arrange accomodation together in the same house and decided to look for the people offering rooms.It seems that we didn't have to worry though on every other port here in Croatia there has always been 34 different people offering us accomodation. Upon arrival in Hvar we were literally attacked by a dozen people who wanted us to stay at</description>

                    <description> After a few days in Dubrovnik the time had come for us to move on unfortunately that meant that we had to split up our group as well. Carl and Karine stayed in Dubrovnik and Sylvain just caught the catamaran with us to the island of Mjet for a day trip. So it was just me..... and 4 girls could be worse The 5 of us arrived on the island of Korula Marco Polo's birthplace and once more we w</description>

                    <title>Dubrovnik the Pearl of the Adriatic</title>
                    <description> To get to Croatia we had to catch a ferry to Dubrovnik from Bari.We arrived in Bari around 8pm and had no real clue on where to move on from here. Luckily we managed to spot a few other people walking around the train station with backpacks that looked just as lost as we were.We were not quite lost though we knew that the dock was about 2km north but at night you don't want to be lugging that </description>

                    <description> While researching the different ways of getting to Positano we found out that most people recommended to take the train to Naples change to the local train which takes you to Sorrento and the from there take the bus.This all sounded way too complicated could this place really be worth all this hassleWell we decided to do it slighty different we caught the train to Salerno and then the plan w</description>

                    <description> Realizing that the Vatican is actually a sovereign state it might be the worlds smallest one but it's still one we figured that it deserved its own blog so here we goAs we mentioned in our last blog during one of our walks of Rome we ended up at the Vatican City. Originally the plan was to just stroll the area and its impressive square the Piazza San PietroBut after arriving and walking ar</description>

                    <description> A classical saying is that all roads lead to Rome... and here we areSuz has been to Rome before but that was a good 8 years ago so she was looking forward to revisiting sites and seeing new ones... I've never been here so it was all definately new to meWe arrived by train to Rome Termini I had heard and read that the area surrounding the train station was a bit dodgy with lots of pickpock</description>

                    <description> We left Florence and caught a train that took us to La Spezia here we changed to a local train and 8 min later the train arrived at our destination Riomaggiore.Riomaggiore is the first of five villages that make up the Cinque Terre a Unesco World Heritage site national park and a protected marine area.

                    <title>Visiting Amsterdam and Friends</title>
                    <description> The reason we visited Amsterdam was thanks to Zilia and Pr when we were planning the trip they told us that they were going there just a few days after the wedding together with Kira and Freddy and asked us if we wanted to tag along. Sure why notAs we mentioned in the last blog Suz and I had to catch a flight at 7am so that meant a really early start to the day. On arrival in Schiphol we ha</description>
