                    <description>Hi troops. Well here we are in the airport at LAX after an interesting trip down from Williams AZ. We decided to use the onboard GPS directions rather than the google ones Bill had printed. We got sent off the interstate route and onto altspangt  shitty 2 lane blacktop through the Mojave desert. The road was under repair so we got several hold ups of about 45 mins each and then near a spot tha</description>

                    <description>Hi troops Today was another day spent at the Grand Canyon. Jan decided toltspangt hike down and went as far as you are advised on a one day hike. He descended more than half a mile and then had to ascend back to where he started from. Too much work for Bill Patricia and I so we decided to feed the cat another goldfish and opted for the view from a helicopter. It was a great experience and our</description>

                    <description>Hi troops another lovely day in the US. Jan and I went out for breakfast as Bill had work chores to do. We set off for the Grand Canyon about 1100 and got to our hotel in Williams about 1430 then off to the venue. I have seen a bigger whole but wow Is my opening comment. We really did it well viewing from many different vantage points and I got what I reckon is a cracker sunset shot. Dinner at </description>

                    <description>Hi troops I am writing this in my hotel room in Las Vegas. We have no internet here so I will send it tomorrow. Sunday saw us completeltspangt a very successful trade show. We then went off for a Mexican feed with a couple of the wholesalers and ended the night up in a piano bar. Early this morning 0530 we set off to drop Nathan back to Camp Pendelton and thenltspangt went and had break</description>

                    <description>Kia Orana all     Well the good news is that the Ana is off the reef. Not refloated but rather hauled up onto the hard. Surprisingly little damage and still no clear reason why she went up in the first place.  Sadly our little cat was hit by a car and  lost a back leg. He did not make it through the combined trauma and surgery. Damm He was a bloody good cat almost up to dog standard. In the vi</description>

                    <title>March 20 update</title>
                    <description>I guess the biggest news here currently is that poor old Tapi has yet another boat on the reef. This time the Ana which went up Saturday afternoon in calm conditions. Rumours are rife as to what caused this calamity but until Taio Shipping makes some sort of statement it is all rumours. We had the Mercury Celebrity arrive on the 6th with 2200 passengers aboard but conditions on the day meant that</description>

The last few weeks we have been without all of our regular summer visitors and this is always a quieter time for us. Our two PADI Instructor candidates Fai and Meti are back from NZ and are now qualified Instructors well done men We have had some interesting fo</description>

                    <description>Kia Orana everybodyAfter discussion with my mate Dale last week I have decided to revive the travel blog. Although it is not this time about travel but more about keeping my many buddys overseas up with what is happening here in Raro. Obviously with a four month delay the catching up will be a bit compressed as such a lot has happened in this time. I will cover these good times but a bit bri</description>

                    <description>11 Oct Well it is back on the blog again after an absolutely wonderful break in Yap. Unfortunately as my camera spent most of the week in its underwater housing I did not get many good blog type surface shots. I am currently sitting in a hotel room in Guam and we depart this afternoon for Cairns where I will stay twelve hours and then fly to Auckland. Tom and Shirley etc. are continuing on with t</description>

It was good to catch up wih Rohan who has lived now in Beijing for six years. I am currently in Agana airort in Guam and nothing is open so no access again. I will send this tomorrow from Yap and as we will be there for a reasonable time I will stop the blog until I am on the move ag</description>

                    <description>01 OctOff early this morning headed for the great wall and Raf you are correct the air is pretty shitty although our guide tells us it will be sorted by the time the Olympics are ready to go. It is China National Day today so as expected huge crowds everywhere. As we were on a prearranged guided tour we got priority parking at all our stops and small group exclusivity at many venues this is  </description>

Not much happening today as it is an all day travelling day we get to sit in Schiphol for almost four hours then around nine hours to Beijing plus a 6 hour time difference.30 Sep Well here we are I Beijing customs and immigration</description>

                    <description>28 Sep Minus 1C when we got up this morning. We first went to the site where heavy water was first produced and was the scene of major sabotage efforts to prevent the German scientific community getting hold of it. It is now a museum and very interesting. It is set in a valley that is so steep and narrow that as of the 25th of this month the sun does not get above the hill line so the valley does </description>

                    <description>27 Sep We headed off this morning up over the nearest mountain range and then up and over several others. It was below 0C when we went out to the car and the first job was to deice the windows ho hum for some of you but new to me. The terrain was stark but very beautiful and as long as you were in the sun it did not feel cold even though the max for the day was 11C. Very narrow windy roads and i</description>

                    <description>25 Sep We spent the night near to where we had rented our van and returned it midmorning. Then a longish trip by cab to Manchester Airport and thence to Schiphol and ultimately Oslo. Mags met us at the airport and as it was then getting late took us to our hotel which is near where he works. He will pick us up again tomorrow morning.26 Sep  Boy what a neat day. After breakfast in the hotel we we</description>

                    <description>16 Sep This morning we zoomed right across to the Eastern side of the country and are now in Dublin where we will stay for a couple of days. We struck the first wet weather of the trip and it rained almost the whole way here with very heavy rain on our arrival. It is clearing now and according to wunderground should be okay tomorrow.  We also struck heavy traffic as our directions to the camp site</description>

                    <description>9 SepWe drove down to Plymouth where we spent the morning wandering around an area that holds a major place In Englands nautical history and Americas too I suppose since this is the spot from where the Mayflower set sail. Lots of people being a Sunday but parking was fine as we got there early enough. Our next move after lunch was to Lands End. Tom and Shirley had been here many years a</description>

I rang the emergency number to be informed the owners were in Scotland and the camp was in fact closed. After we discussed with them how we would go about removing the gate and tha</description>

The blog suffered from a few technical errors last night as we went to a pub of Shirleys choice before writing it. What a weirdo joint it was. Friday night we went to the Hardrock caf for dinner the music was too loud but the service was excellent we suspect </description>
