Mulu National Park Sarawak
We arrived at Mulu airport and walked for 30mins to the National Park HQ to find out where we could pitch our tent. The Lonely Planet guide says you can camp inside the National Park but when we asked the park warden said different. Luckily we'd previously noticed a bodgejob homestay and camp site set up by a local family on the road to the NP. It was probably a much better place to be than insi
Week 46 Surfers Paradise to Byron Bay OZ
I had to change hotels for my last night in Surfers which was OK but a bit of a waste as the room had a great wide balcony and it was raining hard in Paradise. What do you do when you are starving hungry on a wet day Easy you go to Hard Rock Cafe for a burger and it was a great burger too. I mooched about town loaded a blog edition and tried to find nocost things to do. Its hard as this p
Hillcrest Baptist Church Day in El Salvador
Thursday August 5thToday was our group day spent doing stuff just for the church and seperate from Moody Missions. We left the hotel a bit later than planned because we first made a trip to the local Super Selectos to buy a bunch of water then a stop at a pharmacy for some sinus medicine. We finally left at about 930am for our trip to the mountain church and then to the orphanage near La
PARIS BY SEGWAY
We donrsquot have breakfast included with our room here at 22 Euros each there is no way to justify spending about 80 Australian on a couple of bits of toast for Tim and an egg for me But we have heaps of cafes across the road leading up to the Eiffel Tower so itrsquos not hard to find one. It ends up costing 11.60 Euros between us big differenceSEGWAY TOURWe head to the Eiffel Tower wh
Ice hockey in Australia
So I've been making my way around Melbourne working here and there at a few temp jobs that are only for 2 or 3 days a week. It's keeping me alive here but i'm still trying to get full time hours which are only 37.5 here instead of our 40 hours. I went into the city the other day and went to the mall in town called Melbourne Central. There is an old building that instead of ripping down they have j
My first AFL game
So Leahanne got us tickets to an AFL game. Her mom is a huge Carlton supporter and they were playing Collingwood on Saturday. So the three of us headed down to the MCG stadium. It was pure craziness down there. Thing Stanley cup finals crowd wise....soooo many people. These Aussies love their Aussie football. Melbourne is a city really into sports. There is something like 20 or 30 stadiums here i'
Wanderlust in Kanchanaburi Expedition Day 2
Waking up bright and early to a longtailed boat passing by which rocked our entire floating hotel on the river it still takes me awhile after I wake up to realize that I'm actually in Thailand and this is not a dream. It just seems too good to be true how happy I am every morning when I wake up.We were treated with scrambled eggs toasts and a slice of tomato for breakfast. And then we quickly

The troops arrive
Thursday July 22Dear diary I didn't do much today I just sat in the apartment reading my book and in the afternoon I finally built up the enthusiasm to walk around Montparnasse. This area is dominated by the Montparnasse tower a blight on the inner Paris skyline and has quite a night life. The clubs advertise international artists such as Steve Winwood. I only wish that I was in town to se
Pisac en Sacsayhuaman
HolaFreej heeft een artistieke inzinking en weet niet meer hoe ze een blog moet beginnen.... dus ik neem het even over PWe moeten nog even zeggen dat ons prachtige hostel met prachtig uitzicht logischerwijs ook een nadeel heeft... Wij lopen elke dag een paar keer de trappen op en af. En met trappen bedoelen we trappen zoals je ze op het noordelijk halfrond niet kent. Denk tredes van 75 cm hoog
75 rats per square block…
RATS freaked me out and lessened the quality of my downtown Halifax experience. All the construction going on and tearing down of all buildings is making the city rat infested...and Halifax folks are suffering a bit of an infestation. I thought it was super cute till I read the article which coincidently came out on CBC.CA today. So I only give 2.5 stars to this city which should be a 4. The pie
Goodbye West End
This morning started with feeding the deer breakfast again and learning my hotelrsquos internet was still out. So I trekked into town for another watermelon smoothie and some email time. Rudy says his smoothies are just watermelon a little sugar and TLC. Then I took a water taxi to the cruise ship destination known as West Bay. The beach is beautiful. I see what all the fuss is about. S
No Fear in the Cairns Sky
We left Indonesia on Wednesday in an overnight flight from Bali to Darwin to Cairns Australia. Brutal but the kids as usual did not complain about the travel even once and they were too tired to fight amazing.We stayed at the Rydges Hotel with a great view of the Esplanade. Our room on the eleventh floor was overlooking the skateboard park playground and Circus Arts. Allegra took one look a

Virginia on my Mind
We arrived in Washington DC on time after being behind time for much of the trip I don't know where and how Amtrak made up the time. We ate lunch at Union Station and then picked up our rental car. The parking lot at Washington DC Union Sation is quite extensive we had quite a difficult time trying to find the rental car up a couple of floors and across a bus depot. We got our car a Nissan
