                    <title>5 Days and 1 Birthday in Chile</title>
                    <description>We arrive in Santiago 4 hours after we leave Sydney this is something none of us got over in terms of jetlag for at least a week. The ATM machine in the arrivals hall won39t let us take out any more than 50 pesos which we are told is just over 7pounds and every taxi driver in the area soon swarms us offering their services. Being totally dewildered tired and keen to get anywhere that wasn39</description>

                    <title>Byron to Sydney</title>
                    <description>In my room at The Arts Factory hostel in Byron I met two English guys who had just arrived. Dan who was visiting his old friend who had moved to Perth and Andy who had come over from Sydney to meet Dan. They had rented a car from Sydney and offered to give me a lift back with them the next day I cancelled my bus ticket and took up their offer. For our last day in Byron we drove up to the Light</description>

                    <description>I Arrived in Brisbane at around 11pm stepping out of the bus into easily the coldest weather I39ve experienced in well over 2 months probably about 15degrees. Luckily I quickly found the taxi rank to take me across the river to my Hostel the Brisbane Backpackers Lodge. Straight to bed. The next morning too was cold and grey. I took the hostel39s courtisy shuttle into town armed with my n</description>

                    <title>Day in Sydney and Gold Coast</title>
                    <description>I arrived into Sydney with a flight up to the Gold Coast early the next morning. I dropped my bags at the desk and decided to spend the day in town rather than sitting in the airport where I was going to spend the night. I got the train to Museum station found my hostel where I will be staying upon my return to Sydney and went down to the Quay for lack of any better ideas. Weather was clear and t</description>

                    <description>Awake at 5am already 30 degrees for the day of travel. We got in the pickup39s to head to the port on Koh Phangan where once again I ran into Angus and Emily out of complete chance for the thrid time in 2 days it has happened again twice subsequently in Bangkok. We took the catamaran North stopping off at all the major islands on a journey of around 4 hours in comfort as we went for the S</description>

                    <description>A 24 hour coach journey overnight down the coast of Western Thailand and we arrive at at rather ropey looking ferry port with a cafe selling only noodles and bean soup at 5AM not exactly a welcome sight. However once on the ferry for the 2 hour journey to the island of Koh Phangan the beauty of the ocean and rock formations began to make up for that along with our VIP seats which reclined.We</description>

                    <description>About 4 hours Drive West from Bangkok is kanchanaburi Province. Our accomodation was bordered by the River Kwai which flowed quickly and carried everything from speedboats to floating houses and restuarants.Our firstday trip was to the Erawan waterfalls 7 tiers and 5km of pathways... each with pools deep enough to swim in. Plenty of locals as wellas tourists and school groups spent the scorching </description>

                    <description>Arrived in BK after a flight from Joburg connecting in Sydney at 1am I decided to sleep at the airport until I could get a taxi and check in around midday. the first taxi offer was 2000baht... 2 minutes later after walking away it was suspiciously altered to 450. Driving into downtown BK is exactly what you might expect major traffic mental driving enormous roads and near misses on every side</description>

                    <description>The last week or so on the farm we spent at the schools. Teaching at St Basil39s everything from English and Maths to HIV awareness a real eye opener. We played football with the kids in the afternoons naturally we were made to look terrible by the 914 year olds both because of the heat and the fact that we are generally rubbish. We also visited another school on a neighboring farm much new</description>

                    <description>Left Gary39s in Harare early AM on the 7th for the 4 hour drive to the border or that was the plan. We were towing his boat that he planned to leave up in Moz for friends and clients of his to use and around 2 hours into the journey the tire of the trailer was victim to one of Zim39s insane potholes. We changed the spare only to find that it too was almost destroyed and drove gingerly to t</description>

                    <description>Arrived into Harrare to find a visa payment of 55 a portrait of Mugabe and a thourough search awaiting me along with Graham and Pauline in the arrivals lounge. Apart from Graham misplacing the parking ticket which was sorted out by a fee of 2 the journey to town was easy if a little uncomfortable on the worst roads ever made.Spent the first night with Heather Clive and Carly in Hogwarts </description>

                    <description>Having spent a few days here it is hard to see why JB has the reputation it does.
