                    <title>Heading home Patagonia</title>
                    <description>I continued to be on survey until the 16th. The last day of survey we went out to put in a few shovel tests to check the depth of a few of the promising but questionable sites. It was a hot day and a few people were rubbed the wrong way by procedures. Mostly it was just a communication problem as we speak little Spanish and the Chileans here speak little English. It makes it hard. Matt N There a</description>

Had to start line .61mi from my way point because of cliffs and stinging caterpillars. Worse than yesterday. Crossed road and headed up ridge number one. Many fallen trees. Top clear but the way down on the other side was very steep. Marco from valley bottom. Heard both Justin </description>

                    <description>Hi I didn39t have the internet to post all of this while I was there so I39m going to do a few posts to get you all caught up on my adventures down South. The place that we were staying was just outside of a teeny little town called Villa Cerro Castillo on the edge of a natural reserve called amazingly Cerro Castillo. The name comes from teh mountain that dominates the landscape to the W</description>

                    <description>Hello dear readers here I am again struggling to learn how to use the spanish keyboard. Anyway I made it safely to Coyhaique with about half of the group. We all met in Santiago as three of them had missed their connections and one was supposed to be on my flight anway. Another joined us at the airport and happy day all my luggage came through. Others were not so lucky. Patagonia is breath t</description>

                    <description>Alrighty I got a little behind didnt I My apologies. So as I believe that my last entry was about the week before last Ill start with suggesting that anyone interested in international music and or rock should check out Cargo and Zdob si Zdub two amazing bands that I saw at a free concert here on the 25th.  Cargo is sort of like Romanias answer to Metallica and theyre wicked an</description>

Well where Ill be staying for those five weeks.

                    <title>Archaeotek Weekend 2 Sighisoara</title>
                    <description>Ok here were my adventures yesterday. We caught the train at ten fortyish in the morning. It was actually on time which is kind of amazing around here apparently so that was cool. But stepping onto the train was like hitting a wall of heat and smell not good smells. We were hoping that the heat would get better when we started moving but even with all available windows open it was still aw</description>

                    <title>Archaeotek Weekend 1 Ice Cave</title>
                    <description>I had a great day yesterday preceded by a good Friday. Our discussion on Friday was great and a nice break from the morning lecture and then our quizzes were not as bad as I was anticipating although I havent got the grading back. Im more familiar with the bones that we are working with to the point of actually identifying a few of the bones which was really cool. I39m getting more </description>

                    <title>Archaeotek Summer What have I gotten myself into</title>
                    <description>June 7thWow. This is going to be INTENSE Our lecture today covered the general purpose of the skeleton the cranium and the axial skeleton. And by that I mean we had at least five and a half hours of straight lecture before we were allowed to get our hands on any bones. I think this is a little unusual as the general schedule is supposed to have lecture just in the morning and then a good four</description>

                    <description>June 6thThe train ride was beautiful and I tell you what our room is so gorgeous I was expecting palletstyle beds in a dorm room and instead we have an awesome attic apartment to the three of us with our own really nice shower it has jets. Apparently it was just renovated. It39s kind of nice that the three of us have stayed together Jaclyn made sure of it but there are already serious</description>

                    <description>Our epic night the other night definitely meant that I slept well last night though not for long enough. I had to repack and such so I didnt get to sleep until after midnight and I had to be up to catch the train at five. Gross but I think Im on track with this whole time zone thing now. Ill be totally flattened when I get back thoughSo my adventures yesterday. Lets see. We went a</description>

                    <description>June 3rdWow I though that being up until two would help me sleep for a long time but nope I woke up at 530 and couldnt go back to sleep for EVER I finally snoozed for about an hour between seven thirty and eight fortyfive. Ouch. Elizabeth knocked on our door at nine and we were barely moving around. It is so hot here and humid. Gah. So our plan for the day was to hike over to the Castle </description>

                    <description>I am pretty excited about the next couple of weeks. I had an awesome day today. We got up earlyish 730 but after a long day thats early had breakfast at the hotel and then headed out exploring. We first checked out the train station directly across from us as that is where we will be catching our early morning train to Cluj and we wanted to scope it out. There are only two platforms. </description>

According to me it is quarter to four in the morning and Ive been staving off sleep in order to conform to the time zone Ill be living in for the next nine weeks.  Yawn Here are a few tips for future travelers 1. Dont put off packing until midnight the night before you leave even if you d</description>

                    <description>Thursday October 28	It rained all of last night with some serious lightning and thunder happening so this morning when we went out to explore Chania we lit a candle for the guys for luck. Chania when you arent driving is really very beautiful. We explored all sorts of tiny alleys full of shops and little restaurants. I splurged and bought myself a foursome of BEAUTIFUL mugs for my apartme</description>

                    <description>Wednesday October 27	I slept like the dead last night and woke up early my hair exploding all over the place courtesy of a humid climate and going to bed with wet hair. It was a bit grey in the morning. The continental breakfasts of Greece much like those in Israel put anything Ive seen in the states to shame maybe just because I love the yoghurt here. With a little thyme honey and pomegr</description>

                    <description>Tuesday October 26	Karleen got up this morning at eight with the rest of us Chris had the mechanic come at eight to check out the motor and announced that she was done with the boat that the guys could take it down the coast but we were driving. Ok. Actually by the time I got up at eight she had been up for a hour and was fully packed. So as to avoid a hasty decision we put it off went w</description>

                    <description>Monday October 25. 	The morning dawned as calm as glass and it was really absolutely gorgeous. So we pulled anchor and left. Hahaha. Ah well. The goal today was somethingorother starting with a th and we made it smooth motoring all the way which is good but still puzzling. Nix that the harbour is called Agio Nicolaus...I think. Crete is gorgeous from the water. I really wish I could spe</description>

                    <description>Sunday October 24	Weve left I really cant explain why I wanted out so badly except perhaps by saying that everyone we talked to there was either just visiting or only staying because of some unavoidable reason. No one seemed to really want to be there there was always a mother or daughter or fish or some reason. The trip to Crete however was absolutely brutal The winds were still pret</description>

                    <description>Saturday October 23	A very slow morning this morning for me. I am having a hard time deciding whether I like this town or not. It is quite strange. Having my computer boot up around noon was a definite plus to my day along with having Chris again inquire about laundry which meant that it was all packed up immediately and hauled off to the poor wife of a very obliging man who was not going to</description>
