                    <description>Day 360  Wednesday 24 SeptemberAfter taking my last overnight bus I arrived into LA at about half seven in the morning.  I had to wait around an hour for Russ to turn up from Vegas before we made our way over to LAX airport.  Although its a few more days before we fly home weve come to pick up a car.  LA's such a big place it'll be impossible to get around without one.Yolandas been working hard u</description>

                    <description>Day 358  Monday 22 SeptemberArriving into San Francisoc just before lunchtime I quickly found the hostel I'd booked yesterday.  Its a good job I had booked ahead its already full for tonight.  The downside is though im back in a dorm room.  I cant believe it after the luxury room I had in Vegas.They don't do checkin until 2pm so I had to wait around but on the plus side they've got free interne</description>

                    <description>Day 351  Monday 15 SeptemberI don't know what it is about buses in a western country but their always full of wierdos.  The bus we were on this morning was no exception and so was the one this afternoon.  I have to admit though it did result in some funny moments.Eventually after a mammoth journey we arrived into Las Vegas dead on 9pm.  Were staying at the stratosphere tower on the strip itself a</description>

                    <description>Day 348  Friday 12 SeptemberWith no idea how long it might take to cross the border we decided to go early so at half past six in the morning we were at the bus station buying our tickets to Brownsville the border town on the US side.  As most Mexicans cant go to America not surprisingly the bus was empty and me and Russ were the only passengers.It didn't actually take us long to cross and we soo</description>

                    <description>Day 347  Thursday 11 SeptemberWe arrived into Matamoros around lunchtime and im actually surprised at how big the place is.  Its far bigger than any of the other border towns I've been too but like many of the others theres absolutely nothing to do here.As we were not crossing until tomorrow morning we checked into a nearby hotel.  Its an absolute dive and not cheap but will do for the night.With</description>

                    <description>Day 346  Wednesday 10 SeptemberThe bus had taken four hours longer than it was supposed to and we didnt arrive into Veracruz until 130 pm 23 hours after setting off.  Luckily the football wasnt starting until 2pm so we just had enough time to find somewhere that would show it.It was right at the start of my trip that England last played Croatia in the euro qualifiers and id stayed up in </description>

                    <description>Day 341  Friday 5 SeptemberAfter getting a lot of sun exposure yesterday I decided against going to the beach today.  There isnt however much to do in Cancun apart from the beach unless your willing to spend a load of money.  So most of the day was spent reading my book or playing on the PSP.When boredem did strike early evening we hit the internet to book our vegas accommodation.  Its cheaper </description>

                    <description>Day 337  Monday 1 SeptemberAfter spending all morning on the internet booking travel tickets we made our way down to the ferry point in the hotel zone.  We got there just before 1pm but the next boat doesn't leave until 2 so we hade to wait around an hour in the scorching heat.As Isla de Mujeres is only just off the coast of Cancun it only took twenty mins to get there and with it being such a sm</description>

                    <description>Day 333  Thursday 28 AugustWell the bus did arrive safely into Cancun about half eight in the morning but unfortunately for me Mexicans are a lot shorter than I am.  There had been absolutely no leg room and my legs had got crushed all night long meaning I hadnt managed to get an ounce of sleep.  To make matters worse Cancun looks like quite a big town.  The hotel zone down by the beach is well</description>

                    <description>Day 331  Tuesday 26 AugustThe bus dropped us off in Palenque about seven in the morning and we checked ourselves into a nearby hotel.  As the bus driver for some reason had been playing music all through the night and wed had to all get off the bus when it refuelled at four I'd had a lot of broken sleep.  It was off straight to bed.I was up just after lunchtime and we went to have a walk around</description>

                    <description>Day 329  Sunday 24 AugustWe'd arrived into Mexico city international airport at midnight and checked into our hostel.  Its quite expensive here compared to South America so we'd had to book an 8 bed dorm.  However on arrival they've put us in a 4 bed room and we've got it all to ourselves.  Result.With lots to try and fit in today we forced ourselves up at 9am.  Were actually staying right next d</description>

                    <description>Day 328  Saturday 23 AugustToday we finally leave South America after 5 months and head to Mexico.  First off though we have a stop off in Costa Rica.  As we hadn't got back last night until 4 am by the time I was up and packed it was time to go to the airport.We were in the queue at check in when the police came over and started asking loads of questions.  How long have we been in Ecuador where</description>

                    <description>Day 324  Tuesday 19 AugustMy bus arrived into Piura just after 9 am and I successfully managed to find the CIFA International bus offices.  This is the only company in town that runs direct to Ecuador and will hopefully save me a lot of hassle at the border.  Its notoriously bad for robberies and rip off merchants.The next bus doesnt leave until midday so I had a couple of hours to kill.  I dec</description>

                    <description>Day 323  Monday 18 AugustA Peruvian girl had been sat next to me on the bus last night and she hadnt stopped talking to me.  It was obvious she liked me but I'd only just said goodbye to Yolanda a few hours before.  However its good to know that my Spanish has returned and thankfully she wasnt very good looking so I wasnt tempted.  Id even managed to fiegn sleep for some of the journey to</description>

                    <description>Day 307  Saturday 2 AugustI watched Arsenal's pre season friendly in the Emirates cup before Yolanda came to pick me up.  Everybody I've met has told me that Limas a horrible place its very dangerous and at this time of year its cloudy every day.  That might be true but with Yolanda acting as my personal guide I think I'll have a different experience.She took me to Miraflores the alternative tr</description>

                    <description>Day 306  Friday 1 AugustHuacachina is surrounded by huge sand dunes so a few companies have set up offering dune buggy rides and sandboarding.  Although I've done the sandboarding twice already the dune buggies different and is supposed to be really good a bit like riding a rollercoaster so I've decided to give it a go.It really was great fun the driver was crazy I cant believe the buggy could</description>

                    <description>Day 304  Wednesday 30 JulyRuss had told me to expect to be dropped of at the bus station and have tonnes of people try and sell me a room.  I should therefore be able to pick up a cheap one.  However my bus company dropped me off at their offices on the outskirts of town and no one was there to greet me.  Instead I had to set about walking into town.  En route someone did stop and offer me a room</description>

                    <description>Day 303  Tuesday 29 JulyI seem to have adapted to only getting a few hours sleep a night and because I'd had a reasonably early night I was up bright and early.  I've really enjoyed my time in Cusco its probably been my favourite place in the whole of South America but its time to move on.  I went down to the bus station and bought a ticket to Nazca.My bus doesn't leave until tonight so after che</description>

                    <description>Day 301  Sunday 27 JulyYolanda has to travel back to Lima today so after saying goodbye I went back to bed.  Although Im going to miss her it will be great to actually get more than a few hours sleep in every night.  At 11 I went to pick Russ up so we could make our way to Ollantaytambo.  Unfortunately once again he kept me waiting for ages.  He really is a nightmare to travel with when hes with </description>

                    <description>Day 291  Thursday 17 JulyWe arrived into Cusco the old Inca capital at about half five in the morning and after quickly finding some accommodation it was back to bed for a few more hours sleep.Around lunchtime we were up and about again and headed off to another English pub.  I think i'm starting to miss English food again after all this time away.  They also had English magazines and after such</description>
