OK, so I lied a bit in the description, and I am writing something here before I go. Just thought I'd make sure this thing all works properly before heading off. Fail to prepare and prepare to fail and all that. With that said, I do feel hideously unprepared considering that next Monday I leave the country for the best part of a year. There still feels like a million and one things that I need to buy/do and not nearly enough time to do them. Including getting a new Ipod. Sadly, the battery life of my trusty old warhorse is [View Full Entry]

The long road home
Europe » United Kingdom » England » West Yorkshire » Leeds
After the Galapgaos we had 2 days back in Quito and in the nice hotel, this time in a room that appeared once to have been the garden shed but quite cosy once we got another heater! A torrential downpour on the first afternoon caused chaos in the city and blew the power supply in our area of town so candles were required in the hotel for an hour or two. Apart from that, nothing very exciting happened and we had rather lost our appetite for doing anything much other than think about all the things we had to do when [View Full Entry]

Leeds has some nice shopping arcades but little else readily available. The cab drivers are talented improtu tour guides because they have no idea where they are going in the first place. Which is lucky because they cannot escape this city and affect the rest of humankind. If they ever mate with Auckland taxi drivers watch out! Let me explain... When we arrived in Leeds it was clear this was no London. There would be no easy access to charming historical buildings (except for the shamefully 3/4rs unoccupied Corn Exchange), nor would there be interesting ethnic food or street performers wi [View Full Entry]

Three Lakes Crossing?
Europe » United Kingdom » England » West Yorkshire » Leeds
I learnt today that the Three Lakes Crossing (Puerto Varas to Barlioche (vice versa) is not operating at present. So I may have to change my plans travelling to Pucon. My alternative route maybe via San Martin de los Andes (the seven lakes region). However, I will probably decide when I get there what route I will take, and if the crossing is in operation. Final payment for the trip is due a week on Friday and now began saving up for my big trip out! yay! Another update later. [View Full Entry]

Pucon Package - Paid!
Europe » United Kingdom » England » West Yorkshire » Leeds
Just paid off my Spanish course, accommodation and Recreational package (including 1 day excursions and 2 half day excursions) for when I am in Pucon with Cactus Languages. I plan to stay there a week to learn Spanish at a local language school and partake activities in their great outdoors with a possibility of climbing up a volcano. I haven't book the volcano excursion yet as I decided to play this by ear and the weather there is known to be unpredictable....so I hope for good weather during my stay so I can book to climb it as well as doing [View Full Entry]
