                    <title>China</title>
                    <description>China land of tasty food and many people.This is probably going to be one of those updates where pictures are better than words. Ive seen and done quite a lot of things in the last four weeks here but here are the highlights National Holiday  MidAutumn Festival Not something I did per say more of an event that took place for the first half of the tour. Our guide likened it to Christmas fo</description>

                    <title>Peru</title>
                    <description>First thing we did when we got into Peru was hit the beach. We spent a day and a half lazing around and enjoying the warm weather. The only major issue was the giant spider I found in my tent at 430am on the final day. It was at least 5cm long hairy and nightmare inducing. Luckily for me my fellow Canadian Amy was awake and able to rescue me. And no I didnt cry when I saw it but if Id h</description>

                    <title>Ecuador</title>
                    <description>So after the Galapagos trip I was back in Quito for five days. In that time I hiked up Cotopaxi 4100m and went to visit the Otavalo markets. Hiking at altitude was pretty tough but Carol and I finished it in under average time without any injury or altitude sickness. The markets were...a tad disappointing to be honest. It39s true the animal market was interesting to see but most of the other</description>

                    <title>Japan  Part 3</title>
                    <description>So my last update about Japan.The two major projects that I had a hand in before leaving were finishing off the hanko shop and the second house. Theyre pretty similar but Ill start off with the hanko shop. When I last left off wed removed all the walls and floors from two rooms and a hallway. Our next job was to put in temporary replacements. First were the floors and the plywood to cove</description>

                    <description>Another update about my time in Japan. I39ve been doing a lot of 39structing39 both 39con39 and 39de39. That is to say that I39ve been breaking and building things of late. More breaking than building though. Destruction is much more fun gtSo that apartment we cleaned back in the Japan  Part 1 entry was actually the second floor. The first floor was very heavily d</description>

                    <title>Japan  Part 1</title>
                    <description>JapanSo after something like 25 hours flying I finally made it to Japan. Unlike the last time I came there was literally no line at immigration and it took all of three minutes to get through. Armed with the knowledge of which trains to take and how to get to my hostel I set off from the airport. Boring story short I made it there fine got some sleep next day waited for the bus that would tak</description>

                    <description>ActivitiesI39ve been here for two weeks now and some of those days were just me basically being a vegetable so I39ll try to summarize.City Impressions Prague is a pretty cool city. There39s reliable and relatively inexpenside public transit lots of pretty buildings nice views and it39s not too big. I usually have about a week in a big city Toronto Tokyo London before I get too</description>

                    <description>ActivitiesThe train ride from Munich to Verona was nice from what I saw. I was falling asleep for the majority of it but I do remember that we went from a snowing Munich to a blanketed forestmountain region before the snow stopped and it got sunny. The geography has changed. There are mountains no snow but I can see some blanketed mountains in the distance The Alps. Onwards from Verona to </description>

                    <title>Munich</title>
                    <description>ActivitiesSo the next day in Munich I went to Dachau with my roommates. Only a few minutes outside Munich by train Dachau was the first concentration camp opened by Nazi Germany in 1933. When I first arrived at the site I thought I would have been missing out on information without a guidean audioguide. But as it turns out of the barracks has been converted into a very informative timeline muse</description>

                    <title>Ireland  Part 2</title>
                    <description>So yes after I got my stuff stolen I kinda just hung out in Dublin. Went to the Irish Tourist Assistance office the next day and cancelled credit cards along with being given several vouchers for food and clothes.Spent the day getting chargers at Peats and getting the essentials at Dunnes and Penny39s before calling it a night. Not a hugely productive day.Next day went on free for staying 2 </description>

                    <description>ActivitiesNext day we all gathered to get on the bus for the Paddywagon tour. Apparently Im the only one on the 10 day tour so whats happened is theyve put me with the 6 day people and then theyll do 1 day tours out of Dublin. Or something. The driverguide only mentioned it briefly and hasnt talked to me about it since.Anyway Drogheda was the first stop. Its where we first got</description>

                    <title>London</title>
                    <description>So flight into London was with a budget airline called easyJet. And it was seriously budget. It was 5 hours from Amman to London there were no drinksmeals no assigned seats so it was a free for all and the seats didnt recline either. Despite that the flight was still ok for the most part I was in the aisle and didnt have to sit next to anyone in the middle but the pilot wasnt ve</description>

                    <description>People Tour ended yesterday so everyone said their goodbyes. It was a great group of people and we all had a great timeActivities OK since I was a little short on time last time I couldnt type out everything I wanted to. So in between Cairo and Dahab was the Suez Canal. We went under it in the truck. It wasnt anything special really. Just a tunnel. But when we got to the other side it </description>

                    <description>People We said goodbye to most of the people who were with us in Cairo. There39s only five of the orginal group left including myself and we also gained two new people. Other than that not too much new to report on this front.Activities Hurghada is a very touristy watercentric town. Kinda similar to the Gold Coast in Australia. Several of us decided to go snorkelling on the Red Sea. Now it</description>

                    <title>Egypt Part 2  Aswan to Cairo</title>
                    <description>People I suppose I should talk about the locals I39ve met in Egypt. Mostly...nobody. There is a reason for that. Let me explain. I39ve realized that before I came to Egypt I didn39t have any preconceived notions about the people that I39d find here. It was probably because my last few weeks were pretty hectic and also because I just didn39t think to give it much thought. Well wh</description>
