Argentina: Back to Buenos Aires
After a kickass time in Puerto Igazu we hopped a plane back to Buenos Aires for one more day of the big city before we head south to Patagonia. We knew we didn’t have much time in BA but looking back on it we definitely think another day or two there is in order. For [...]

Argentina: Puerto Igazu & Igazu Falls
This will be a short entry because nothing my feeble brain can write will do the Igazu Falls any kind of justice. I doubt even my pictures will but they will get their own post when I get home. The attached picture was taken from my lame iPhone camera with only a small portion of [...]

Bienvenietos Argentina

Well, I leave in less that 3 hours on another adventure to a place unknown and even though I never finished posting about last year in Thailand (and I will) I plan on journaling the 2009 adventure in South America in the same manner.

The movie is mostly about a Cambodian journalist, Dith Pran’s escape from that country during the rule of the Khmer Rouge is heart-wrenching. It’s widely considered the [...]

While its not [...] -
Thailand Journal: Off to the Islands
April 20th, 2008 – Pol dropped us off at the airport and we caught our flights to Bangkok. This was wear we split ways. I had a direct flight from BKK to the island of Koh Samui while Kat was going through a land-locked city of Surat Thani. Both of us were [...]

Thailand Journal: Travel Planning Day
April 19th, 2008 – Opted not to do the Thai cooking course, I’ll pick up a Thai cook book instead. I didn’t want to take the whole day cooking and it was kind of expensive. Just wanted a day to rest and plan my next segment, Southern Thailand Islands!
I spent an hour or [...]
