Croeso Calon! http://www.getjealous.com/welshboys http://www.getjealous.com/getjealous.php?action=showdiaryentry&diary_id=392005&go=welshboys After training hard for the last 9 months, we were in peak condition for the Inca trail. NOT! We were a little worried we wouldnt be able to survive the trek and the high altitude.After we left Alaw, Aled, Iestyn, Heledd and Lisa in Buenos Aires we flew to Lima via Santiago. After a day sleeping in the hostel we flew to Cusco. We spent the next two days acclimatising to the high altitude (3000m).... http://www.getjealous.com/getjealous.php?action=showdiaryentry&diary_id=392005&go=welshboys Fri, 31 Aug 2007 12:00:00 GMT http://www.getjealous.com/getjealous.php?action=showdiaryentry&diary_id=381606&go=welshboys (Diary date: 13/08/2007 - 16/09/2007) After my quick surfing holiday in Mancora I flew to Buenos Aires to meet up with Osian for our flight up to Iguazu, I hadn't seen Osian for about 3 weeks so we had a bit to catch up on waiting for our delayed flight. On our first day in Iguazu we monged about in the swimming pool and caught up some more over beers. On the 2nd day we got the local bus to the fa... http://www.getjealous.com/getjealous.php?action=showdiaryentry&diary_id=381606&go=welshboys Sat, 11 Aug 2007 12:00:00 GMT http://www.getjealous.com/getjealous.php?action=showdiaryentry&diary_id=381601&go=welshboys (Diary date: 09/08/2007 - 13/09/2007) After staying awake all night at Lima airport (as not to miss the flight at 4am) I (Steffan) arrived in Piuaru and boarded a local bus to Mancora hoping to get a few hours kip before hitting the surf. Unfortunatley for me I had the please of sitting next to world champion snorer who could shake a bus apart with the noise coming out of his face! I had planned t... http://www.getjealous.com/getjealous.php?action=showdiaryentry&diary_id=381601&go=welshboys Fri, 10 Aug 2007 12:00:00 GMT http://www.getjealous.com/getjealous.php?action=showdiaryentry&diary_id=391901&go=welshboys 27/7/07 - 14/8/2007After an eight hour boat ride which seemed to take forever I arrived in Santa Rosa which is the Peruvian side of the tri-border region before crossing to Brazil and then Colombia. That evening I went to see the local Doctor as I was visiting the toilet pretty often and unable to drink any liquids. The next two days were spent in the hospital on the drip. With either the doctor o... http://www.getjealous.com/getjealous.php?action=showdiaryentry&diary_id=391901&go=welshboys Thu, 9 Aug 2007 12:00:00 GMT http://www.getjealous.com/getjealous.php?action=showdiaryentry&diary_id=380844&go=welshboys You might have guessed, gez didn't get round to writing the Peru blog so I'm stuck with it again (and another free Big Mac my way!). We eventually arrived in Puno and we were stunned with the difference from Bolivia, it was the same shock we had going into Bolivia from Chile, there are actually roads with tarmacs again and not every woman wears a bowler hat! We treated ourselfs to some lovely stea... http://www.getjealous.com/getjealous.php?action=showdiaryentry&diary_id=380844&go=welshboys Fri, 3 Aug 2007 12:00:00 GMT http://www.getjealous.com/getjealous.php?action=showdiaryentry&diary_id=371140&go=welshboys (Diary date: 28/07/2007 - 02/08/2007) After saying our goodbyes to Osian, me and Gez caught our plane to Rurrenabaque which is a small town in the middle of the Bolivian Amazon jungle where we were due to go on a 6day tour of the jungle. The plane over was an adventure itself being tiny only holding 16 people and shaking every time we hit a small amount of turbulence. To finish off the ride we ski... http://www.getjealous.com/getjealous.php?action=showdiaryentry&diary_id=371140&go=welshboys Sun, 29 Jul 2007 12:00:00 GMT http://www.getjealous.com/getjealous.php?action=showdiaryentry&diary_id=368148&go=welshboys (Diary date: 01/08/2007)Wedi antur wythnos diwethaf yn La Paz, dwi bellach wedi cyrraedd Iquitos yng ngogledd Peru.

To begin we thought it was a joke as we´d stop for a kodak moment, but when he carried on we realised this was not a joke. After about half an hour driving we pulled up next to this building, which was the Bolivian immigration. Got the stamp on the passport which is pritty goo... http://www.getjealous.com/getjealous.php?action=showdiaryentry&diary_id=366610&go=welshboys Fri, 20 Jul 2007 12:00:00 GMT http://www.getjealous.com/getjealous.php?action=showdiaryentry&diary_id=360821&go=welshboys Buenos dias! After our trip to south Chile we stayed another night at the same hostel in Santiago (fortunately for Steff without the yellow morning shower this time) then caught a bus north to a city called Valparaíso which is an UNESCO world heritage city or something. During our trip down south we saw a Spanish TV advert stating that a domestic cup match between Cola-Cola and Universida... http://www.getjealous.com/getjealous.php?action=showdiaryentry&diary_id=360821&go=welshboys Thu, 12 Jul 2007 12:00:00 GMT http://www.getjealous.com/getjealous.php?action=showdiaryentry&diary_id=356847&go=welshboys On our first morning back I (Steffan) spent the morning catching up with 3 mates from uni, Ben, Andy and Jacko, who are also travelling but were staying at the same hostel as us. After spending the day sorting out our lives, again, we met up with the other lads for a few beverages! Well, let´s just say the night got messy with drinking games in the hostel kitchen and a pair of Irish lads making su... http://www.getjealous.com/getjealous.php?action=showdiaryentry&diary_id=356847&go=welshboys Wed, 4 Jul 2007 12:00:00 GMT
