                    <title>Laos  the end of our trip.</title>
                    <description>So we left Bangkok on an over night bus please let this be the last time we do an over night bus and arrived just outside the border in the early hours of the morning. We sorted out our visa over a coffee and were taken across no major problems except I almost couldnt get into the country as I dont have any blank pages on my passport any more in which to get a visa The guy managed to sq</description>

                    <title>Thailand</title>
                    <description>When we arrived from Vietnam the plan was to head straight to a beach to get some sun bathing time as it was important to have a decent looking tan for when we got home. First we decided to head to Koh Tao which is a small island just off the east coast thats known for its diving and beautiful beaches. We got a night bus again down to the port where the ferry leaves. It arrived at 4am</description>

                    <description>After spending new years eve in Bangkok we headed for the Cambodian border at Trat and after getting ripped off for our visas were soon on the road to Sihanoukville a beach town on the south coast. Our main reason for going there was because we had heard about a place called Lazy Beach. Its on an island called Koh Rong a few hours boat ride off the coast of Sihanoukville with nothing but 10 bu</description>

                    <title>Western Australia and a tiny bit of Thailand</title>
                    <description>After what seemed like years of planning we finally made it over to Western Australia to stay with Amy  Ethan. It was luxury to be picked up from the airport and delivered to a nice comfy room and a home cooked dinner We deliberately timed it so we could spend Christmas there and were fortunate enough to be invited to Amys Christmas Party I was to accompany an old guy that turned out to be o</description>

                    <title>Central Australia</title>
                    <description>We arrived into Darwin and man was it hot and humid. We checked into our rubbish hostel only to find out it was burgled the night before nice comforting thought. Very early the next morning we started our tour round Kakadu National Park. We jumped in the back of a Toyota 4x4 with a few other people and made our way down. Our first stop was at the Adaleide River to try to find crocodiles and hope</description>

                    <description>We arrived into Sydney on the night the local rugby team  Manly beat their arch rivals Melbourne for the first time in many years with a score of 40  0 also it being a bank holiday weekend everyone was very drunk. The streets were awash with football fans and party goers. We found a room in a massive party style hostel which was terrible. We got out as fast as we could the following day to f</description>

                    <description>We had a beautiful crossing through Queen Charlotte Sound the sun was shining and not a cloud to be seen. Unfortunately this wasnt the case for most of the time in the south island though.First stop was Abel Tasman national park in the north a bit of a wasted drive really because when we got there the weather was so bad that we just turned round and headed back the way we came. This was ok th</description>

                    <description>After a 13 hour flight from Santiago we arrived in Auckland. Due to the fact that we crossed the international date line we managed to lose a day. Luckily it was only a SundaySo we arrived at 4am. Not much happening at that time of the morning on a Monday in New Zealand so we had to wait around for things to wake up. We took the few hours we had to wait to get online and look for accommodation. L</description>

                    <description>We liked the location and price of the hostel we stayed in last time so we booked back into the Art Hostel in San Telmo. Didnt do too much again  Buenos Aires is an easy place to chill. We did manage to do some more sight seeing though and eat a lot more steakWe went to Recoleta which is this graveyard but no ordinary grave yard its like a small city with massive tomb like buildings that</description>

                    <title>Brazil</title>
                    <description>Brazil was not originally in our plans because of its sheer size we knew we were not going to get to see much in the time we had plus we knew it was going to put us way over budget and it did but we were so close to the border at Iguazu that we could not resist. So we crossed over the boarder and went to the Brazillian side of the falls. Very impressive once again much better view of the whol</description>

                    <description>Steve I got a dodgy stomach as soon as we arrived in Chile so the bus journey to Salta in Argentina was an interesting 12 hours my stomach rumbling all the way and I had to avoiding the toilet at all costs. I think a broke a recordThe scenery whilst driving across was very dramatic. Huge open spaces very desolate cold and windy. As the evening drew in we crossed the badlands of Argentin</description>

                    <description>BoliviaOur first stop in Bolivia was Copacabana on the shores of lake Titicaca. We found a really cool hostel set on the hillside over looking the lake. Aside from the view the best thing was that the rooms had heaters and the showers had hot water a rarity in this part of the world We decided to stay for a few days. Its quite chilled out not much to do but we met an Irish and a Kiwi couple</description>

                    <description>ColombiaWe arrived safely in South America for an all too short stop off in Colombia mainly in Cartagena and the surrounding area. We we got there around midday and the heat was almost unbearable as we stepped off our plane and lugging our bags round the city at midday was a bit of a challenge but we managed to find a room with aircon only to realise at 2am that is was party night for the locals</description>

                    <description>This is quite a short blog. It covers about three weeks. We spent most of it in Antigua Guatemala doing a Spanish course. The rest was rushing through central America getting to Panama to fly over to South America. So there isn't too many exciting photos.Anyway...As soon as we crossed over into Guatemala from Mexico we noticed a difference the landscape changed. First of all it was a lot greener</description>

                    <description>What a change of pace Although motels in the US arent that great they are a world apart from accommodation in Mexico. Our first night in downtown Cancun was a reality check. Although the accommodation and location was a lot to be desired we still managed to find some cool spots. In the local square  meeting place for locals they served up food in a half permanent outside food hall thing. The</description>

                    <description>Finally a hot and sunny beachAfter a few hiccups with our flights from LA we finally made it to Hawaii. Hawaii is made up of several different islands our first stop was obviously Waikiki on Oahu. After checking in to our hotel we went straight to the world famous Waikiki beach. It was pretty much as you would expect it to be  very kitch and touristy The front was lined with resort hotels an</description>

                    <description>San Francisco is cool. That's a fact.We arrived into the city on Monday morning and found our hotel. It was in a bit of a rough neighbourhood Tenderloin  if you know the city. The hotel itself was pretty rubbish bit of a dreary looking room. We immediately went out and found a coffee shop on the corner of the next block. We sat outside in the sun and drank coffee. It was great and we immediate</description>

                    <description>From Monument Valley it was off to the Grand Canyon. Unlike anywhere else we have been so far it was swamped with tourists with cameras but we are still somewhere between Spring Break and Easter so its to be expected. The park again was massive it take roughly 5 hours to drive the length of the canyon. Originally I wanted to go to the northern side of the canyon but unfortunately because </description>

                    <description>So after it dumped loads in Jackson we went boarding for one more day. The drive around the mountain in the morning was very scary as the roads were completely covered in snow and as I had no snow chains had to drive really slowly. Kelly kept telling me I was going too fast The last day riding was excellent though. The snow was 18 inches deep and there was powder everywhere. I did quite a bit of</description>

After spending a few days taking in the sights of Seattle Downtown  Pike place market the Space needle and of course the first ever Starbucks we headed on up to Mount Baker.Steve hired the biggest car in America for our drive up to the mountains it is literally 3 times the size of the 106. The heated seats rock though. I</description>
