Welcome to Oz
Goodday from Down underWe started Oz in Cairns and yes we went to the Woolshed Apart from that we juist picked up our van Sheila and headed to Cape Tribulation and went through Daintree rainforest which was pretty cool but as the name suggests it did rain a bit drizzle mainly. Overall it was pretty good for a couple of nights but apart form the beaches and rainforest theres not much todo wh
Posh impala this time but no lions
Day 10Went for a stunning drive on the Blyde Canyon road finishing at Godrsquos Window hellip. And you can see how it got the name then got to Londolozi and very comfortable we had to rush for our 1st game drive and it was for me really good being shown things rather than driving and looking at the same time but the plan was to find a lion and we didnrsquot helliphelliphelliphe
Cuzco and the Sacred Valley
Monday 28.6.2010 day 257Cuzco and the Sacred ValleyWe had a very early flight so we got up at 230am and got the taxi to the airport at 3am. When our flight was ready to leave they announced that the flight was delayed due to bad weather. Our flight eventually left 2 and half hours late. We had sent an email for a taxi pick up but they said they did not read it till it was too late. So we got a ca
Birds Snakes Armadillos
Josh dropped me off at a WalMart that was kind of close to I27 around 845 am. He was already late to work so it was the best he could do. I went in and bought some supplies and food. After a eating a hearty breakfast that consisted of a fuji apple 2 yogurts and 2 kashi bars I started making my way through Lubbock to I27.Once on I27 I hiked to New Deal and took notice of all the dead ani
Day 6 Cambria CA San Francisco Petaluma CA
Happpy Canada DayToday was a very long day of riding and most challenging. We left paradise moonstone beach this morning and started to work our way up the coast highway I say work because it seems like a workout with all the twists and turns and gearing up and gearing down. My wrist is sore from working the clutch today. We stopped at Ragged Point for an early morning latte and had some
Frontgaurd and Disc Golf
I didn't do any traveling today. My legs and feet need rest and it was Cole's day off so we started the day going to walmart so I could buy flea shampoo. On the way back Cole bought me a really good breakfast burrito from his favorite place in town Oscar's. It was yummy but a little weak on the amount of bacon... jus sayin'...I threw all my clothes and sleeping bag into the washer with a li
Grand Tetons and Great Wildlife
Gena and Bob fixed us all a hearty breakfast of sweet rolls bacon and scrambled eggs with sausage. What a feast After breakfast we set out to see Grand Teton National Park. Our first stop was Willow Flats where last night we caught our first glimpse of elk in the distance. This morning nothing so we went on.We turned onto Teton Park Road and stopped by the Jackson Lake dam where we watc

Komodo Benidorm
Let op er zijn 2 pagina's voor foto's.Waar waren we gebleven Na de overwinning van oranje tegen Japan zijn we direct aan boord gestapt van de Parama boot deze slowboot met aan boord jonge kinderen en Fransen... dit volkje trekt elkaar aan als vliegen op stront en je vind jezelf niet snel tussen een groep Fransen terwijl je lachend over de grond rolt van de gemoedelijke saamhorigheid.

Sac Dam
Just a quick update for the Sac trip today. The level was still high although a bit lower than last week. We had a pretty big group 18 all told with a bunch of new people getting their R1s today. They all seemed pretty enthusiastic so hopefully we'll see them out on the rivers again. I took my open canoe up and paddled it a bit. Peel outs worked fairly well in the OC and I was successful
From 107 degrees to 49…
Wow what an astounding couple of days I felt Jodys' summary of our time in Las Vegas was a little depressing so I might need to add a little to it . It truly is a sinful place but it was beautiful. After all if sin presented itself as ugly who would want to participate in it That being said it was unbelievable the hotels and casinos were so ornately built and furnished it was like be
Camooweal Mt Isa Hughenden 2527 June
We left Lorella Springs just after 8 am and headed for Cape Crawford located at the intersection of the Carpentaria and Tablelands highways. Here we refuelled and headed south to the Barkly Homestead where we thought we might have to spend the night. However we made good progress on the onelane sealed Tablelands Highway and it was only 3 pm when we got to the Homestead so after a brief stop

Burnt shoulders and big grins.
So here we are sitting in Riohacha in part of the northern most region of Colombia burnt hot but smiling. Wow there has been much adventure since I last wrote in Bogota and we have travelled quite a way. We caught a bus that was meant to be 8 hours but was closer to 12 to Bucaramanga not arriving until about 10pm. This was probably not the best idea we holed up in the closest hostel we coul
