Wow! This tramp was an amazing 10 day journey through the southern part of the South Island. There were 11 other people including our Kiwi guide Mark Bob and my good friend Crystal from Davis. I met up with Crystal on the 12th in Christchurch and we took a 7 hour bus down to Queenstown. That night we were able to go up the gondola and see the brilliant views. We were dissapointed that it wasn't a BYOB place so we permantely borrowed some wine glasses and walked down having a glass of wine at every scenic site. The highlight was [View Full Entry]

San Fermines, well what can I say, it´s a non stop, crazy party. There are close to a million people running through Pamplona which city of 200,000 people. Everyone is dressed in white with their red bandanas and belts. Every year it starts on the 6th and lasts for a week. The running of the bulls start at eight and it last only a couple of minutes until they enter the bull ring. I thought I could party but this kicked my ass. On the first night we didn´t sleep until 10:30 and the next day I was so tired but [View Full Entry]
