Syvota buying Cannabis

Start a travel blog Login. We had gotten the taste of sailing in the Great Barrier Reef 3 years ago. The trip was in September We arrived by flight to Corfu airport and stayed the night somewhere very close by. Next day we visited Corfu's old town with its old fortress and narrow shopping streets. We had some gyros and good night sleep, before we went to the Gouvia Marina in Corfu, a short bus ride from Corfu city. That's where the group of 18 rented 2 big catamarans and set sail to the south. The first day was full of hassle. Stocking up on food, water, drinks and other necessities like toilet paper, dish soap and kitchen towels. By the time the ships were ready and we had done the shopping for 9 people for at least a couple of days, it was too late to set sail, so we slept on the boat in the Marina. The first real sailing night we stayed in the waters of Syvota 'mainland' Greece. To be honest, maybe not such a great start. Didn't feel that safe there, as it was notoriously famous for people coming into your boat and stealing stuff in the middle of the night. We had someone do night watch. Some beaches around here were nice. It's really worth taking a snorkel with you. This was concerning only one of the boats, the one we were on. This trouble stayed with us during the whole duration of the trip, and most of the trip we had only one bathroom functioning at one point we had none.. It made it quite uncomfortable. People were encouraged to pee in the sea and find a place in the land to take a crap We sailed on to Gaios, in Paxos. I have to say all these places are quite touristy and serve the people coming in by boats. We walked around quite a bit, as there were some nice but rocky beaches to explore. Some more toilet fixing happened here. We continued on and wanted to explore the island of Antipaxos as well. We kind of reached it, but decided to anchor on some rocks there Then spent a very dangerous half a day trying to get the anchor free from behind a rock. Thanks to the depth, clear water, ideas of Christophe and a help from a random Swiss guy sailing by, we eventually got free. This was the most stressful day on the trip. We were really concerned that we are going to break something on the boat or injure some people who were in the water trying to get us free. As this anchoring incident together with the toilet incident ate so much time from the trip, in the end we decided to skip Antipaxos and just sail around Paxos. There were not really any places to stay on the west side of Paxos, so it was just sailing until we reached Lakka at the North side of Paxos. The trip's most wonderful days were in Lakka. We had nice weather and met a nice Australian couple there. Some people rented a car and drove around the island. Once we left Lakka, we started going back towards Corfu and Gouvia marina. It was pretty much a whole day sailing to get back, but the weather was great and we enjoyed the ride despite the wind dying out from time to time. The last day of sailing contained the biggest surprise. Just when the sails were up, sun was shining and everything seemed perfect, Christophe joined Edda on the front nets of the boat and popped the question. She said yes. After arriving back in Gouvia, the rental company people explored the toilet and we found the cause of this toilet trouble. Apparently we had a guy with us who ate olives with seeds So naturally the toilet shredder couldn't handle that. Back in Corfu we caught up with this Australian couple again for lunch. The last couple of nights we spent together with just the two of us a bit more north of Corfu town, in Ipsos. Some walking, some sunbathing and some nice dinners there. But all in all there is not much to do in Ipsos. On Sunday we met again on the shores of lake Bacalar, which is a nice lake, but also a bit of a tourist trap we thought. We had a swim there. From there we went on a ruin-visiting frenzy and saw the ruins of Kohunlich, Dzibanche, Kinichna, Xpujil, Becan and Balamku. From there we went on to Palenque where we had a quick glance at the cascades of Aqua Azul, and visited the Palenque ruins the next day. The site is really impressive. From Palenque we then had a long drive to Campeche, where we spent one night, and after which we visited the ruins of Edzna, Labna and Xlabpak. The next day we visited the ruins of Uxmal, and then stayed two days in Merida. We found the town one of the lowlights of the trip. We went to the famous Progreso beach, which also proved to be a tourist trap, but went on an off the beaten path road and found flamingos eating in the lagoon. We saw some fly overhead, and it was pretty cool. The next day we drove to Sisal, which is a much nicer beach town then cruise ship town Progreso. From there we had a long drive to Valladolid, where we stayed in a very nice homestay. We were running our of budget for visiting ruins they all add up to quite a cost! We saw some great artwork on the acropolis, and liked the site. After that we visited our last cenote, and swam for a couple of hours, and finished with a nice dinner at our home stay. Tomorrow we have another long drive to Cancun, which will be our final day in Mexico! And of course, while driving to the airport, with a small amount of Mexican Pesos, well on time for bringing the car back, a policeman saw his chance to rip off some Western tourists. He pulled us over, asked for our ID, and said we would need to pay. But we didn't have any pesos or other money on us and we told him we had no money and were heading for the airport to leave. While Christophe got very nervous, Edda stayed very cool and said we cannot pay, get in the car we go. In the end, the policeman understood he wouldn't win today, so he let us go, but pfiew, that was a nervous moment! Waterfalls near Palenque. Posted by Abb3 Archived in Mexico Comments 0. We arrived in Cancun quite late and spent another day there before picking up our car. On our one day in Cancun we went to shop for a snorkel and then had a walk on the zona hotelleria beach with a lot of resorts and restaurants. The water was calm and clear, so Christophe was bored no waves. On Friday we rented our car and went to Tulum where we would meet Sophie and Louise, who we had met in Canada. It was great to meet them! We spent 4 days in Tulum, which was a lot of time for a small place like Tulum. First we had one beach day, the next day went to Coba ruins and visited some cenotes near there. On the last day we went to the Tulum ruins, which were not that impressive, but the area is nice as the beach is just there. On Tuesday Christophe dropped Edda on the beach of Mahahual and then drove back to Cancun to catch a flight to Belgium for a couple of days for the funeral of his grandmother. Edda had 6 beach days in Mahahual. It was a very small place with lots of hotels and restaurants, but not much more. Edda finished 2 books during that time, swam a lot and had some sun. Cenote near Tulum. The next day we got our car and started navigating in the crazy traffic. We quickly found out the downside of renting a car in Mexico: If you wanna go fast, you have to pay tolls, and the costs add up quickly. So after the first day of paying tolls we mostly stuck to the smaller non toll highways, which take longer, but they also take you past a lot of small towns. If the roads have one lane in each direction, it means there are at least lanes in practice. There are the slow cars driving in the shoulders of the road, and the middle half of each lane is for overtaking. And finally, nobody seems to care about the speedlimits, if you even know how much they are. Full line or not, corner or not, if it goes slow, it should be passed! Mexico with car. El Salto. From Xilitla we drove 2 full days towards the Pacific Ocean. First night we stayed at Maruata beach. It was packed with people as it was a long weekend here. From the coast, we drove back to Tequila for a night. We did a horrible jungle walk to a waterfall where Christophe had a swim. We also did some lookouts over the agave fields and valleys, which were really pretty. Blue agave fields. Posted by Abb3 Archived in Mexico Comments 1. Los Angeles fro 9 h. Arrival in Mexico It was a long trip to Mexico - with a stop in LAX the Dodgers were playing - and we were quite tired when we got there. The first three days we walked around Guadalajara, which is a very big city with a small historical centre. We mostly got to know Mexican food tacos enchiladas, gorditas, tortas, flautas etc.. Day of the dead decoration. Spicy breakfast in Zacatecas. In the evening, we went to the wedding afterparty to which we got invited, and had a great time. Christophe and the miner. Food stalls, musicians, a lot of atmosphere! Day of the dead. From Zacatecas we went to San Luis Potosi, where we spent an afternoon, and took the bus to Guanajuato at 7 am the next day. But here, Christophe got the sick … Whether is was from too much drinking in the local pub, or eating raw onion, or something else, we will never know. So the first day in Guanajuato Edda went to explore the town by herself, while Christophe laid in bed. The next day was a little better, and after a visit to the doctor, it started to improve. So we managed to go around the town together. The next day we decided to leave, and see if we could try to book a car again. On Friday we went to the small town of Tequila, known for … Tequila. We visited the local big distillery Jose Cuervo , took a tour and Edda went for a tasting while Christophe watched Belgium play Mexico. After that we wandered a bit more around town, and when we took the bus back, Edda started feeling a bit bad after tasting all that tequila. Barrel bus. We were in New Zealand since the end of October We had travelled all over NZ a couple years ago, when we were there with the 3-month tourist visa. We both started looking for jobs when we arrived. He got the job through some connections without even applying for it. After some temping and rejecting one job, she found a suitable job in telecommunications, and she did get pretty good at it. Edda's office view. Christophe did the days Vipassana meditation camp. He really enjoyed it and has been trying to keep the habit of meditating at least once a day. We both started new old hobbies. Edda started playing beach volleyball, and then continued to indoor volley as the weather turned wintery. Christophe played football or soccer as they call it here. Christophe also did snowboarding and skiing at Mt Ruapehu. The Wolf Pack. We travelled around the North island with them and had an awesome time. Everyone did the Tongariro crossing, which was awesome. We did some rafting, but only Edda stayed in the raft as we went down the Kaituna cascades. Especially Mt Taranaki was spectacular. Tongariro crossing with family. As the NZ winter arrived, Christophe wanted to take advantage of the fact that we were in New Zealand. So, he applied and got a job in a ski resort. For over 4 months, he was doing the finances in Whakapapa ski field and snowboarded during his free time. It was a mixed experience. Not many people can say they worked and skied on an active volcano, but a lowlight was working for the company that ran the ski field. He was disappointed how they handled the seasonal workers, and it made the experience a lot less great than it could have been. But when the snow was good, the riding was just fantastic. Edda stayed and continued her job in Auckland. So, we lived almost kms apart. Christophe stayed at the staff accommodating at Mt Ruapehu and Edda stayed with the amazing family we met over 2 years ago when we first started the trip in New Zealand. Now we just have to convert it to a European one. Tongariro crossig in the winter. The year went by fast. It was sad to leave, as we just started integrating into New Zealand, making new friends and re discovering things that we love. However, the time had come for some sunshine and adventure In Mexico. Christophe is pretty excited about his internship in Belgium next year and Edda is not looking so much forward to job hunting in Europe. I loved training, playing and hanging out with them! Although it was just 9 months, the progress was unbelievable. Was great to find the Wolf Pack for the autumn season and win the championship together, and to be elected MVP, to become topscorer, and score the goal of the season! Thanks guys! I liked it, and I look forward to my upcoming job in Belgium. I think she actually became an excellent driver, and I am very proud of her. During the last couple of days in Canada, sold our car and celebrated the birthday of Sophie. For the first time in a long time we went out, so of course Edda had a hangover on the plane the next day Everybody wants to travel, but a question that a lot of people have been asking us is, why are you throwing away 2 years of your life to travel the world? Sometimes the answer is hard to explain, and hard for some people to understand. Sometimes the modern society, your family, friends and your environment force unconscious expectations on you. We wanted to get rid of all that. Discover what the world has to offer, and discover what we genuinely want in life. Has the journey been what we expected? First of all, we learned a great deal about ourselves and especially about each other. You get to know what both of you are best at, and together develop a lot of interests, and have a lot to talk about. You go through some extraordinary moments, yet also many stressful moments and big fights, but you learn to talk it out. Secondly, a world trip sure gives you a lot of time to read and think. Now, we think that it is a luxury to be able to stop and reflect on what you truly want to do for work and leisure. We hope we will never stop thinking about it. We started reading study books and learning about things that genuinely interested us. We both found our interests in this way, and we will pursue these. Third, we are very happy we did the trip quite independently, and that we spend a lot of time exploring places by ourselves with our own vehicle. Although the world trip is finished, the adventures continue in New Zealand Below some of the best moments during the trip. NZ mountains. Posted by cjfvdk Archived in Canada Comments 0. As our days in the rafting place came to an end, we were thinking what to do in the two weeks that lasted on our trip. We had a car, so a road trip was the logical option. But where? Canada was getting too cold and wet, although there are heaps more beautiful places to discover here. One options was Vancouver Island, but the weather looked really bad. So we looked South, to Washington State, but it was cold and wet as-well. Sacramento, Northern California seemed to be warm and dry! We wanted some good weather before hitting half winter in Estonia and autumn in Belgium and then the early wet spring in New Zealand. So South it was. First thing was to cross the border and customs, which went actually pretty easy. Just fill a form, sign a paper. From there on, it was drive, drive and drive. First nights we spent at rest areas. We took the costal road, which was quite scenic, passing by cliffs, big rocks, black sand and some rugged coastline. They also have massive bridges on the road, and they are pretty proud of it. First town we passed was Astoria, there were heaps of sea-lions there on the docks, making loud noises. It was quite hard on the coast to find affordable campsites. But the petrol is cheap, holy cow! But everything is in gallons, miles and inches there. Further down the road we saw more cliffs, some cool rocks, rugged shoreline and also whales. Christophe did a whaling cruise to see some close buy. So we just drove there in one day, over some really crappy road. Sealed, but so crappy. Edda thought the car was going to fall apart. But we got there. The camp was full for that night, but pretty empty after. We were next to the coast, hidden behind the dunes. So we did have quite a bit of wind. But the warm weather was nice. The first morning we had a scare though, when a couple of young kids just pulled out a gun, and went to pose with a shot deer that was in the back of their ute. Crazy yanks! Lost coast. After three days, and the weather getting colder again, we moved past Ferndale with a very nice Victorian style hotel to Redding, where it was 40 C, and then to the Lassen Volcanic National Park. There is a road that goes through the park, which a couple of walks in the Volcanic area. We spent a full day there, slept close buy, and went to climb a cinder volcano ash volcano the next day, with its accompanying lava beds. From south Canada to North California there is a volcanic mountain range called the Cascade range, which is part of the Ring of Fire, which lays along the Pacific plate. It includes the volcanos on Hawaii, New Zealand, Indonesia, etc. Here on Mainland US, they actually had a couple of eruptions in the last century Lassen just y ago, St Helens 35 years ago. From there we went North past Mccloud river with a few nice waterfalls, and then past Mt Shashta, another volcano with 2 craters. We slept that night at an altitude of m, and luckily there was a small cabin with a fire stove in it, otherwise we might have frozen to death. By then we were again sleeping in the car after a week in the tent, because we stayed at place where putting a tent was a bit difficult, and it was also warmer in the car. That one morning, the front of the car was frosted, which was a bit of a sign to get the hell outta there, because they were also expecting snow that night. We even noticed that because more North, back in Oregon we went to crater Lake, which was covered by clouds and we even saw it snowing on the trees a couple hundred meters above us. So we also went the hell outta there, over the Cascade range, back to lower lands where it was a bit warmer. On the road in USA we had a couple bad experiences with drivers passing left and right, trucks speeding right past you and just horribly bad drivers. There seems to be no middle class at least not out of the bigger towns. In one town in Oregon, we went to the library and it was just packed with lowlifes. It was pretty scary. You walk past somebody on the street and he smokes weed right in front of you. We got a pretty bad impression of the USA, not the country of hope and glory, but quite the opposite. We had one more scare coming back to Canada the border. As easy as the crossing into the USA was, so difficult was it to get into Canada. What are you doing here, who is with you in the car? Can I see your flight details? Can I see your New Zealand visa? Did you buy anything in the USA? We stayed at Goose lake, which was quite pretty, but also quite cold and wet. We went to bed early, woke up early and went to the park. It is a park known for its many remarkable waterfalls, as leftovers from both volcanic and glacial activity. That night we did manage to get a fire going, but it required persistence. In the morning we managed to get it going again, and even cooked and burned breakfast on it. We packed up saw the mouse in our car , and headed towards Lillooet, via a very scenic route an Edda route , and stayed at the free campsite provided by BC Hydro where we had a great fire and Christophe managed to set up the tarp nicely. A guy at the previous campsite recommended us to go to Joffre provincial park and climb up to the glacier, so we did. It was a nice hike up, passing 3 blue glacier lakes. The track to the glacier was not marked, but once again thank to maps. It was full of people and cars, but we were pretty much the only ones who climbed all the way to the top. We stayed the night at a random campsite. Luckily no rain today! On our way back to the rafting resort, we passed by Whistler and Squamish. Then we got the really bad weather. It was raining all day and night. We were so sick of camping in the cold and rain, that we decided to book a hotel room instead. In Vancouver, we had already gone shopping and collected most of the things we would need, such as tents, mattresses, cooking gear etc. So we were quite ready. We went for a quick look at the fire-lookout where we had spent a night before, and almost hit a black bear on our way up! Our first night was at a lake besides the Thompson river, after a very very scenic drive besides the Thompson. The scenery is really quite amazing there! The evening was a bit chilly. Luckily Layton, being a bushman, had no trouble cranking up our first campfire. We had some snacks with bread, which would be quite a poor meal compared to what we would have later. The next day, we got some rainbow trout from a guy fishing the lake, which we had for lunch. We continued our trip through Kamloops, gathered some more things from the thrift store and went towards some wineries and then Harper Lake. We were all alone at this very nice lake, and stayed two nights. Layton had the idea to make a float trip around the lake on the air mattress, which was really nice. Later that day, we got a fishing rod from a fishing family and some flies for fly fishing which Layton put to use for some hours improving his technique, and eventually catching fish after lots of patience. The second night, we got the company of a family of hillbillies. The tour. Following Harper Lake was Salmon Arm, where they sell quite some local produce. We stayed the night at Begbie falls, which had again amazing scenery. We managed to make a blazing fire, to keep bears away at night we found some tracks , had a great dinner and rest. The morning was rainy, so we quickly packed up and went to Revelstoke. Layton and Romy tasted quite some local beers here, and following the advice of the Aussie barman, we went searching for hot springs. We had dinner on a campfire and treated ourselves on another long bath in the morning. Then all the way back to Revelstoke, and on our way to Golden. We stayed at a wet campsite with a rewarding view of Wapta falls, and met an American fellow travelling alone. He seemed quite happy to meet some other travellers and eat some of our left-overs , and told us that Lake Louise our next stop was full of tourist, which we found out ourselves the next day. We had a look at the lake quite late in the afternoon, and since it is so conveniently close to all lodges and hotels, it is very full of tourists. Moraine lake was the same, but was already nicer. By now, we were in the province Alberta, and turned our clocks one hour forward. Once we hit the Icefields parkway connecting Banff and Jasper through the respective national parks we were blown away by the beauty of the Rockies. Peyton Lake was exceptionally beautiful, way better than Lake Louise. We spent our night in Sunwapta campground in Banff National Park, where we were almost alone, and with an amazing sunset and view. This must be one of the better campsites in the world. We had a nice fire, which was necessary, because the night got freezing cold in the Icefields. In the morning, Christophe woke up to get the fire going again, but that was quite a hard task. He eventually managed, so that we could have our daily bacon and eggs on the fire. We had a long day ahead of us in the park, visiting the Saskewatchan glacier again, just beautiful , walking close to the Athabasca glacier, and visiting Sunwapta and Athabasca falls. The Saskewatchan glacier viewpoint was the highlight of the day, because this was the one with the least people. We had to get out of the park that day, so went to Jasper to stock up some food super expensive town, a total rip-off and went on, back to British Columbia. We stayed at a campsite in Mount Robson Provincial park, with a shower the first this trip, we did swim in some lakes , which was nice :P. Roy and Edda picked some mushrooms and cooked them. They were excellent! The sunset was very nice, as we were surrounded by hills, and with the upcoming storms hovering over us. We got a lot of rain and thunder and lightning, but still managed to cook a decent meal on our campfire, but got rained out. The morning was still wet, yet we did have breakfast on the campfire, and went on our way again. We wanted to find one more lake, where we could maybe finally catch our own fish, so we headed for Gorman Lake on the Bonaparte plateau. So everything got soaking wet, and as we were on higher altitude, it was cold as well. We were freezing, packed up and drove to Kamloops. We had a meal there, and decided to spend the night in a motel, in stead of going camping, since Romy and Layton would continue their trip to San Francisco from Kamloops. We dropped them at the airport, and went each our own way …. It was a good trip! Saw 2 black bears, lots of eagles, deer, some caribou and other wildlife. We met some nice people, and got to see a bit of the beautiful British Columbia! We had some great food on campfires, and oh do they have great pork here! After a couple of weeks in Duncan to get our batteries fully charged again, it was time for a change. We had a great time in Duncan, healthy food, good weather mostly, some football, fun and less fun jobs, lots of progress, personal time, so we are ready to get going. We applied to workaway at a rafting resort on the Nahatlatch river, and got a reply quite soon that they would be needing help very quickly. So we had our last meal with Riitta and the British workawayers, packed our bags and set out at 7 am the next morning to hitchhike some kms, with a ferry trip in between. We could have taken a bus, but that would have made everything way to complicated. We had also applied for some ridesharing, but none of it worked out. We got picked up by two different drivers on our way to Nanaimo, the ferry stop. That was quite smooth and we got dropped right at the ferry in a large and comfy pick-up truck. We did arrive 5 minutes late to catch the ferry so had to wait 2 hours for the next one. Once on the ferry we started hunting for people who could take us towards hope, but nobody either went that way or had some space in their car. So we got a desperate and stranded in the Horseshoe Bay ferry terminal. Luckily google helped us out and suggested to get by public transport all the way to the other side of Vancouver and try to catch a ride there. On our last bus towards our hitch stop, a friendly man told us we could take another bus that would bring us 60 kms closer to our destination, and where we might have more success getting a ride. So we did that and arrived in Chilliwack. Half an hour later, a friendly lady took us on and brought us to Hope. By then is was 5 pm. Luckily she felt like going for a ride and brought us another 70 kms further to Boston Bar, where we would be picked up to get to the rafting resort. We arrived there by 7 pm, just in time for dinner. We were very happy we made it. The rafting resort is located in a lovely forest setting right beside the Nahatlatch river. Edda was appointed to work in the kitchen, and Christophe got to do housekeeping. There is always something to be done, you were sort of busy the whole time. Edda started making great desserts that people absolutely loved, and we gradually, we both got more responsibility. We also got to go on rafting trips on the level river, which Edda thought were very cold and freezing and not super pleasant, but Christophe had a really good time, although he fell of the boat a couple off time, which Edda thought was really funny. At first we were thinking to stay 2 weeks at the resort and then start planning to get back to Vancouver to pick up our Australian friends, but as we got more responsibility and we felt good, we stayed 3 weeks at the resort. We did our daily duties, and Christophe helped out on the 2 Stein trips level 5 river which required additional rafting training on the Nahatlatch. The guests also had to do this training on day 1 and on day 2, there was a full day trip to the Stein river, including carrying in the rafts over a small walking track for 4 kms to the launching spot. We roll the 80 kg raft on to a pole, and then carry it with 2 people, one up front and one in the back. Some guides manage to go all the way, but others have to switch quite often. Christophe was pretty happy with his performance. Once you get the rafts to the launching spot, you still need to pump them up, and off you go. The first time Christophe had to walk back with the poles, but the second time, Christophe could raft down the river, which was very cool. It was in the safety both with experienced rating guides, and it was pretty high leve, but good fun. But the Stein is definitely a rewarding trip! The weeks at the resort slowly went past and the group of volunteers was really good, and went well together. It was hard work sometimes, and a lot of work also, but it was fun to be in a close community and getting to know these people. On the day we had to leave, we went with the parents of one staff member to Vancouver, spent the night there and then got a vehicle to pick up our Australian friends and go car hunting. The first car was the good one. A Dodge Durango with a quite noisy V8 engine. It needed a bit of work, but our Aussie friend could easily manage that. We stayed 2 night around Vancouver, and then went back to the resort to work on the car. Our friends went for a rafting trip as well, and after two night there, we went for the Canadian road trip adventure! More about that in the next post. Nahatlatch fire lookout. Posted by cjfvdk Archived in Canada Comments 2. We said yes to that, and ended up saying almost a month. And also some inside work, as she is in the process of renovating the house. Mostly organic and very fresh local stuff. We are staying in Duncan, which is a quite small place, but there are lots of events happening around town. Christophe is playing football twice a week with the locals. Every Saturday there is the local market as well, where we always get some good bread and baked stuff. There are a few hikes around. So far we only did a hike at Mt Tzouhalem. It was really nice and we could see the snowy mountaintops in the US. See pictures below. Posted by cjfvdk Archived in Canada Comments 1. There is a possibility to get a free visa to Beijing and some other Chines cities for 72h while on transit. We decided to use this opportunity to explore a bit of Beijing for free before entering Canada. On our first day we walked around Houhai lake. The second day we visited the Tiananmen square and the National museum of China. Tiananmen square was very hard to get to. They had closed a couple of the underground entrances, so we had to go all around the massive square, find pedestrian crossings and find this one and only entrance to this square. There were guards, fences and tourists everywhere. On our last day we went to the Great Wall of China. We decided to take the train there as it was cheaper and more scenic than the bus. We arrived at the station and wanted to buy tickets, but saw that there was a sign saying that they are all sold out. Christophe was very resourceful as always and saw online that if you have the GO card for the trains, you can get into the train anyway. We quickly ran to the other platform, got ourselves the GO cards, ran back to the station and joined the humongous queue of people taking the train. Once the platform doors opened, people ran to the train. The Great Wall was quite impressive to see. Edda thought it would have looked a bit more old and wide though. The nature around the wall was spectacular see photos. There were quite some tourists, but if you walked on the North side a bit more, you could have the place for yourself. The train back was also overbooked and full of people. When we got back, we went hunting for chinese smartphones. Christophe got himself a Meizu and Edda got Xiaomi. The overall impression of Beijing was pretty cool. There is a lot of space and the buildings are big. Posted by cjfvdk Archived in China Comments 0. It was only 14 days we had to explore this huge country. As the time was a bit short and we had a lot of distance to cover, sights to see and pagodas to visit, we only went to the on the beaten track places. It was very noisy, very very dirty, people were busy and quite unfriendly. The street food was not great either. From there on it went better though. Bagan was beautiful and we could freely explore the temples with bikes. Lake inle was really pretty as well. We will remember the train trip to Mandalay, but Mandalay itself had nothing special to offer. The impression we got from the people is that the country and the people are quite rich. We saw a lot of nice cars and houses. There is a big gap between the rich and the dirt poor though. Everyone seems to be proud of their country and think that everyone is so nice and friendly in Myanmar not sure we totally agree. There are for sure nice people around, but in most cases when people randomly start talking to you especially near a tourist attraction , they will ask for a donation in the end. Tour de Myanmar. Posted by cjfvdk Archived in Myanmar Comments 0. After Christophe talked Edda into agreeing to take the train from Inle to Mandalay, we had about 12h of scenic train travel in front of us. We had read that the trains are rather poor quality, they shake, jump over the bumps on the tracks and go very very slooooow. It was indeed quite a shaky ride, but not nearly as bad as we had expected. The upper class seats were comfortable enough to even have a nap. The scenery however was breathtaking. Mountains, green valleys, fields, water…. Everywhere we stopped, venders came in to sell some snack, so we never got hungry either! The long hours passed fairly fast as we were staring out of the open windows. Yes, there is natural air conditioning, as all the doors and windows are open all the time. A cargo wagon was the last wagon of the train, and at every station people were loading cabbages and different vegetables into it. All the produce was going to Yangon. We stayed the night in Thazi in a reasonably priced guesthouse, so we could watch the Belgian football game, and continued at am with another train to Mandalay. Ready for the long journey.

Greece Corfu - Paxos - around Antipaxos and back She said yes After arriving back in Gouvia, the rental company people explored the toilet and we found the cause of this toilet trouble. Cenote near Tulum Tulum Tulum ruins. Mexico with car Besides that, driving is fine in Mexico. There are a lot of places to visit, of which many are commercialised. We found two awesome magical waterfall spots though, where we were the only ones, and could swim in the pools and see the waterfalls without anyone around. El Salto waterfall and the top of Tamul waterfall Those two places where definitely the ones we loved the most. This was one of the disappointments. This place is so hyped up by Lonely Planet and a lot of people tell you that you should go there. For us this was just some unfinished and half broken concrete structures in the rainforest. Maruata Sunset in Maruata The next day we drove by the coast. First stop was to see the sea turtles in Ixtapilla. We thought this would be a nice experience as this was their nesting season as well. We found the Nature reserve and walked into their viewing point. We saw quite many turtles walk on the beach. We stopped to observe one that had just climbed out of the sea and started to dig a hole for its eggs. This took quite a while, but we stood there patiently and tried not to disturb it. Christophe gave them signs not to do that and they kept walking, but it was too late. They scared the turtle and it stopped digging its hole. Later on we saw the family further away touching and pushing another turtle. These kind of experiences really make you sad. This place was also full of tourists it was all Mexican tourists though and the town was full of hotels. We managed to find a cheapish one by the beach and relaxed for 2 days drinking coconuts and eating fish. The swimming was not great due to the breaking waves and strong current, but at least the water was very nice and clear. Blue agave fields Found some bananas in the jungle Tequila waterfall Valley lookout Agave fields in Tequila Agave fields Blue agave plantations. Day of the dead decoration Guadalajara We really liked to the town and on Friday evening, when we were searching for a place to have dinner, we found a procession following some musicians and a donkey. Christophe asked one of the followers what it was about, and they said a marriage was going to happen the next day, and it was a tradition in Zacatecas to have a party in the streets the night before, and drink mezcal carried by a donkey. They said we could join them if we wanted, so after a quick bite we found them again and joined in. Everyone was very friendly and talking to us and asking where we were from and if we were having a good time. Day of the dead Murals Donkey carrying honeywater Coffee experience in Jerez Street music From Zacatecas we went to San Luis Potosi, where we spent an afternoon, and took the bus to Guanajuato at 7 am the next day. Barrel bus Jose Guavo Tequila tasting Tequila barrels Siffing tequila Agaves being taken out of the oven Agave steaming ovens Blue Agaves to be made into tequila Murals in Tequila Tequila town Trip inland without the car The next day we finally did it! We got a rental car! About those adventures we will tell you more in the next post! A year in New Zealand Working and traveling Tongariro crossing with family Everyone falling off the raft in Kaituna cascades Trip with family North island West coast with family Auckland Mt Taranaki As the NZ winter arrived, Christophe wanted to take advantage of the fact that we were in New Zealand. Last days of our trip and lessons along the way Three more flights and the world trip would be officially over. Oregon Coast First town we passed was Astoria, there were heaps of sea-lions there on the docks, making loud noises. Lost coast Lost coast sunset Mattole beach California Volcanoes After three days, and the weather getting colder again, we moved past Ferndale with a very nice Victorian style hotel to Redding, where it was 40 C, and then to the Lassen Volcanic National Park. Joffre Provincial Park A guy at the previous campsite recommended us to go to Joffre provincial park and climb up to the glacier, so we did. Road trip to the Rockies We dropped them at the airport, and went each our own way … It was a good trip! Rafting resort adventures Spending time on Vancouver Island Mostly organic and very fresh local stuff We are staying in Duncan, which is a quite small place, but there are lots of events happening around town. Myanmar - Summary The good the bad and the ugly What we liked: Bagan: still has a village or a town -like feel. Nice green scenery with surrounding mountains. Lake Inle: We were expecting a tourist trap, but got a really beautiful scenery and got to experience the importance of the lake for the people living there. Train trip Inle - Thazi: Just stunning scenery The nature. It is still mostly untouched and so green What we disliked: Myawaddy: nothing there except for people who try to make a living out of you. Yangon: Noisy, busy, dirty, unfriendly, rainy and uninspiring The street food. Thumbs down for all that deep fried, grease dripping unhealthy stuff. The long road to Mandalay Ready for the long journey Loading the train Train stop - selling fruits and stuff Scary bridges Landscape long the way More landscape Starting the night market Almost a sunset.
