		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve arrived in Tokyo airport and am waiting for the subway train into the city to find my hotel. Remember a month or so ago, when I rode that swing in Queenstown? That feeling of utter terror as I was dropped for 70 meters over a giant canyon? The past half hour was pretty similar, [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Last night we had dinner at one of the main restaurants here in Noumea. It&#8217;s positioned at the end of a pier above the water. The tables sit around the edges of the deck and the water below is lit up so you can watch the fish swimming around in the water (it&#8217;s so clear [...]]]></description>

I realized that we are here at the perfect time of year; it&#8217;s the cusp of tourist season and we&#8217;ve experienced the island without [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[We had the best day of our trip so far, on the Ile des Pins (Isle of Pines). It&#8217;s a small island off the southern tip of New Caledonia&#8217;s mainland, named for the many pine trees spread over it. We had to take a 20 minute flight to get there.

After checking into our hotel, we [...]]]></description>

They live on what&#8217;s called a &#8220;Lifestyle Block,&#8221; which is easiest described as a tiny farm, approximately 3.5 acres, that you can&#8217;t really make any money off of. It&#8217;s sort of a way for people [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Our time in Wellington, the capital of New Zealand, was awesome. It&#8217;s a large bustling city filled with young hip folk, trendy restaurants and clubs, art galleries, museums and shopping.

We were privileged enough to stay with a couchsurfer up in the hills above the city. Ryan and his girlfriend hooked us up with some great [...]]]></description>

It&#8217;s a total hippy beach town and we stayed at this weird house-turned-hostel called Barefoot Backpackers. Our accommodations consisted of an old caravan out back on the property. It was hilarious and very [...]]]></description>

In Queenstown I broke out in a crazy rash of hives all over my body. I&#8217;m just starting to get over it, but can&#8217;t figure out what caused it. If any of you out there know a good thing to relieve the itching and burning, [...]]]></description>
