		<title>End of the odyssey</title>
		<description><![CDATA[So we finally made it home to Oxford. There&#8217;s nothing like flying in from São Paulo to make the air at Heathrow seem clean and the M25 seem civilized. We seem to have been lucky with the weather too &#8211; it&#8217;s been sunny and warm since we got back. It&#8217;s taken a while to get [...]]]></description>

		<title>Relaxation Time</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Imbassai, a small village on the Coconut Coast, about an hour north of Salvador in Bahia. The last destination before flying to São Paulo to pick up our flight to the UK. Warm sunshine, a Pousada set in gorgeous tropical gardens with its own pool and only 10 minutes stroll to a golden sanded beach [...]]]></description>

		<title>Taste of the Pantanal</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Since I can&#8217;t upload all of our photos to Flickr just yet, I thought I would upload a few to give a taste of the things we saw. Click them for larger versions.

		<title>Back from the Pantanal</title>
		<description><![CDATA[We&#8217;re back from five days spent in the Pantanal. We have a ton of photos, but the hotel internet connections we&#8217;ve had since are not going to cope with my trying to upload them all. So they&#8217;ll have to wait for now. We stayed in a lodge which was really in the back of beyond. [...]]]></description>

		<title>Belated thoughts on New Zealand</title>
		<description><![CDATA[ I&#8217;ve been so busy travelling recently that I&#8217;ve had no time to record my thoughts. Now however the opportunity presents itself – I am taking a siesta in the cool of our room while the hot Pantanal sun beats down outside.
There is a lot to talk about.
In this post I&#8217;ll talk about New Zealand. [...]]]></description>

		<title>Chilling in Rio</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
We&#8217;ve been enjoying our time in Rio. It&#8217;s just like you&#8217;d expect. The traffic is a bit crazy, the beaches are lovely and there are lots of beautiful tanned people jogging along them. We&#8217;ve had no problems with beggars and haven&#8217;t felt unduly worried about crime. It&#8217;s fun just relaxing, having breakfast in a juice [...]]]></description>

		<title>Sunbathing, shopping and lots of steak!!!!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Rio can be so many places all moulded into one. Hong Kong, Brisbane, Dunedin and yet when you look at the beaches you feel like you are on one of those far off islands in the middle of the ocean where it is always sweltering hot!!! Due to the fact that we have friends living [...]]]></description>

		<title>Culture Shock South America</title>
		<description><![CDATA[We&#8217;re now in South America. The contrast with New Zealand has taken some getting used to. It could have been a bigger shock as we are in Santiago and Chile feels quite European in many ways. (Imagine a version of Spain that took an extra 15 years to emerge from dictatorship and never joined the [...]]]></description>

		<title>Geothermal Jokes</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Why did the geyser feel good about himself?
Because he was full of sulphur steam!
Why did the bubbling mud get a girlfriend quickly?
Because he was sooooo hot!
Hope you like them
