                    <description>Budapest  what a stunningly beautiful city. It's like Paris but the Danube is so wide that immensely long cruise ships can do uturns with ease. Elegant 18th century buildings treelined boulevards pavement cafes  all this and temperatures in the low 30s C unlike the wintry conditions back home.Yesterday we took a yellow tram southwards along the river to a railway station where they're cons</description>

                    <description>Now staying at a vast 1920s spa hotel at Lillafured complete with turrets and landscaped grounds. In the dining room yesterday evening we were treated to a selection of light classical 'favourites' by an organist. And at breakfast this morning there is a very competent guitarist whose set includes two taken from the Jazz Traitors repertoire Black Orpheus and Mercy Mercy Mercy. I squint carefull</description>

                    <description>The food hasn't really improved. What they like best over here is lukewarm pork or turkey done in various styles with pickled cabbage and dumplings.I make a mental note to tell Zoltan to get himself out here he's looking for a girlfriend and the girls of Eger are stunning. Bridget adds that he could smarten himself up a bit starting with that grey fleece he wears all the time.Yesterday as w</description>

                    <title>Name three famous Hungarians... OK  two.</title>
                    <description>The only Hungarian I know is Zoltan 'Paul' Viski guitarist with The Jazz Traitors. He's not really Hungarian  he lives in Ealing. Before setting off I asked him what I should take with me as a gift when I visit some of his relatives. 'Curtains' came the reply. That's Hungarian humour.7.00am. Terminal 5 at Heathrow. Now there's a concept. But actually the chaos seems to have subsided at last alt</description>

                    <description>The previous blog found us in Asuncion we are now enjoying our last days of freedom in Paraty on the Brazilian coast roughly halfway between Sao Paulo and Rio. A lovely spot and a nice place to be ending our 6month sojourn in South America.After leaving Paraguay we headed east back into Brazil and took a train through mountainous jungle scenery to the coastal town of Paranagua and from there </description>

                    <title>Paraguayohwhy</title>
                    <description>WAKEY WAKEY Yes we are now in Paraguay where the temperature rarely dips below 35 deg. C 95 deg.F and this tends to induce a certain torpor. And today being Sunday all the shops and restaurants are closed and the streets of the capital are deserted.Paraguay is a country Ive wanted to visit ever since Adam went there in about 1970 when it was still a military dictactorship and reported s</description>

                    <description>First things first an apology. It appears that David Coleman is not dead after all although I dont know how I was expected to know that considering how far away I am.There have also been requests for more extracts from the local guide book to the Chilean island of Chiloe so heres an example under the heading Popular Medicine'Prepared a tea in a potwithout cap is good forthe tungs and the</description>

                    <title>Territory</title>
                    <description>We've covered a lot of territory since the last blog.After leaving Bolivia and crossing the border into northern Argentina we made our way south then took a left turn back across the Andes into Chile thus missing out the boring northern desert. Weve now travelled down to the island of Chiloe.A note from the English version of the local guidebook may shed some light on this remote spot. The my</description>

                    <title>Tourism</title>
                    <description>Were now in southern Bolivia not far from the Argentine border which we plan to cross in a day or two. The main idea is to avoid spending too long in Chile which is expensive. Mind you anywhere is expensive compared with Bolivia.Our nicest trip in Peru was in the company of the splendid Revels family from San Diego. We travelled to the Manu rainforest reached after a day jolting along potho</description>

                    <title>Incas</title>
                    <description>Weve been living amongst the Incas now for about 10 days here at the centre of their mighty empire. On Friday we will set off for the Manu Reserve  the deepest darkest steamiest primevalest jungle weve been able to find in Peru. If this is the last blog you receive assume we have been chewed to pieces by the mosquitos or perhaps pounced on by a maneating anteater in the night. With luck</description>

                    <description>Speaking of culture I thought it would be nice to include photos of our splendid Spanish teachers in Cuenca  Cesar and Priscila. Meanwhile I apologise in advance to readers for the literally dyspeptic quality of this blog. Trouble is following a spot of the old Third World tummy trouble this morning I redecorated the bathroom of our hotel in a style and colour unlikely to find favour with the </description>

                    <title>Volcanoes</title>
                    <description>There are few if any volcanoes in Teddington. In Ecuador however they are very popular. Almost as popular as shops selling religious tat and taxis that try to kill you.The inhabitants of Baos live right underneath a 16500 footer called Tungurahua that began erupting in 1999. The government evacuated the town and surrounding area fearing the worst. By January nothing had happened so the tow</description>
