California to Oregon...and Oregon
787 June 30July 1st 2008Kevin can't drive very much today or tomorrow because he's run out of hours for the whole week. The trucking industry has some very tight and sometimes stupid rules....since he drove too much a week ago he gets 70 hours for the whole week then he can't drive more today. Although it seems like there is no overtime in this industry it doesn't feel like from day to day.A

Thailand What a Wonderful Place
By RobWhen I left Thailand I was nearly in tears because I knew I would miss it so much. Up to that point in my life and my limited travels I had never been treated so normally. Back in the summer of 2000 Deanne and I Rob headed to Bangkok Thailand for a trek. In Thailand we met Ariette whom we call a good associate or distant friend. Each of us had a unique experience. I hope that t
Kyoto en Einde Tokyo
Woensdag zijn we Kyoto gaan bezoeken met de bulletrain of de Shinkansen. Aangezien onze 'Japan Railpass' soort toeristenkaart warmee je onbeperkt op de treinen kunt ons niet toelaat om op de allersneltste treinen te gaan hebben we de traagste Shinkansen genomen. Die heeft de afstand van 560km met 10 haltes overbrugd op 2u 40min wat niet slecht is.12288De treinen zijn ook zeer confortabel met
Update
It's been such a long time since I have blogged here. I have a few major updates on my life. For one Taiwan was unsuccessful. As a result of my citizenship status I was not allowed to obtain a work visa to teach in Taiwan. But now I am going to teach in Japan instead. I have never been to Japan before other than to connect flights so it will be a completely new experience for me.I will be worki

York
Jorvic Viking ExpeditionWe caught the bus in and headed to the Jorvic Viking Expedition. Vikings had ruled York from 866 AD to 954 AD . The English briefly took control from 927 AD to 939 AD but the last Viking King Eric Bloodaxe was expelled in 954 AD and the town became a part of the new kingdom of England. Eric Bloodaxe what a sweet name. Maybe I should change my name to Geoff Murder Bow or
Secret Garden Environmental Activity Centre
I am doing well with my volunteer project. I have been busy with daily beach cleanups teaching the kids swimming on the weekends hiking and surveying a grass planting area after a massive rockslide on the island etc...There are about 15 volunteers most of them in their early 20s. They are from the i 2 i program and most are English. Very nice group Half are teaching English at the school
Rained out
The rain started two days ago and won't stop. Too bad since I'm at the beach now and there is little to do that involves being inside. The group has scattered today to try to entertain themselves and if I'm ambitious enough maybe a ping pong tournament can be held. I think we're all looking forward to heading to Vietnam tomorrow. Cambodia is preparing for elections on Monday so most things
Great Ocean Road and Melbourne
No photos with this entry sorry as we're at an internet bank of pc's without any way to plug in. We did a bus tour on the Great Ocean Road on the 23rd a winding piece of scenic road along the coast. We had several stops but the piece de resistance were the sandstone formations called the 12 Apostles Greg and I did an optional and pricey helicopter tour to see them from the ocean but
I called him 'Monty'
Hi All Well we survived the Mekong river delta. The trip was not as easy going relaxed and comfortable as advertised and we were glad it was over when it was. We opted for the 2 day 1 night on a 1 week old floating hotel and slow boat up the river and across the border to Pnomh Penh Cambodia it all looked nice in the brochure. We got up early for our 7am departure and had a 3 hour bus ride
Bond Darcy and Covent Garden
So the Old Me won a huge battle last week. I was meant to be in Germany this week but OM went into a panic about the ever growing list of things to do and decided to stay home to get them done. To my credit they are all done and OM is resting quietly for the time being. New Me frustrated that I couldn't bring myself to leave kicked in yesterday and decided that some fun was due.It all st
Waiting for the Weather
Hi AllWell we don't have much to report except that Hervey Bay is experiencing an unseasonal wet period surprise surprise.
