I was suddenly woke up by a bloke puking is guts out… It was 7:00 am, I’ve decided to go to the kitchen to have breakfast. Another thing about the life in a hostel the kitchen world! There is some strict rules : Mel Gibson, Rob Roy and my new best friend Hamish!! – Put Read More »
Getting up at (approx) 7:30am for breakfast wasn’t that bad. We got coupons for breakfast, which would normally cost around 10 euro (I guess). Really nice buffet with mostly everything you could think of for a European breakfast. Took my time working in a few croissants, some bread, a boiled egg and some fruit. Got Read More »
Since we had the car for a second day, we decided to drive west. Our original plan was to drive to St. David’s and we did, we just weren’t prepared for how amazing everything along the way would be. Our first stop was Carreg Cennen Castle on the western edge of Brecon Beacons National Park. Read More »
Today was the first rainy day. The weather has been so great, but now its wet. I’d actually packed expecting the weather to be dismal like this all along, and until now, I’d been sweating it out all day every day. So I wasn’t complaining. The bus took us passed Loch Lommond – or more Read More »
Spending the night in the Blues bar showed the next morning when Chris pulled out into a four line highway heading into the oncoming traffic. Sensibly, I did not follow him, only to turn around and find that Bert had followed Chris and not me. Men drivers!! Driving through Missouri today, lots of corn and Read More »
Wednesday, Dec 26 Our trip started at a very early hour but was greatly brightened when after seated on the plane our names were called and we discovered we had been bumped to First Class. Flying through Miami from San Francisco to Barbados, the trip lasted all day and into the night. When we landed Read More »
Pokhara – where the lake meets the alps！ Pokhara 座落於 Phewa Lake 旁，背靠 Annapurna 雪山，是一個美麗的湖邊城市。我想在亞洲很難找到一個像 Pokhara 那樣，每天起來便能看到雪山倒影的城市。 Pokhara 距離加德滿都200公哩，坐飛機只需半小時。我們選擇了坐巴士，雖然需要六個多小時車程，但沿途可欣賞美麗的田園風光， 而且中途停車吃飯的地方還很休閑舒適，一點不像在趕長途汽車。 27/10 – 下午兩點多到達 Pokhara, 吃完飯後, 本想到湖邊看看, 剛下去草甸便碰到一班小朋友在踢足球, 我還沒有開口, 他們就問我想不想踢, 我二話不說脫了涼鞋, 很快和他們打成一片。沒想到他們球技與英語都很不錯，很享受這兩個小時的比賽，彷彿囘到了童年，畢竟很久沒有赤腳踢足球了。Odi 在旁為我們拍照和短片, 然後囘放給小朋友看，逗得他們非常開心。 28/10 – 我們租了一架紅色的 Yamaha Enticer 125 巡航型電單車，駛到湖邊的 Fewa Park Restaurant，一面看著平靜的湖水和翠綠的草地，一面吃著美味的早餐，確是償心樂事。 中午我們驅車前往山上的 World Peace Pagoda, 那是一個由日本人捐建的彿塔。上山的路很不好走，既斜又多石頭，幾次差點人仰馬翻。 後來遇到兩個當地大學生Tols 和 Krishna, 我們各自把電單車停好，然後一起走路上去。World Peace Pagoda 可以看見整個 Read More »
Before I get to Zion, a quick interlude. Although we are confident many of you have stopped checking this blog since we never update it, we would like to briefly toot our horns. This was our Editor’s Pick write-up: http://blog.realtravel.com/2007/07/04/the-american-road/ Pretty park, but hard to enjoy when you are a sweat factory. Apparently, this site Read More »
