Hi blog followers. Currently we are sitting in an internet cafe in Corumba, Brazil, waiting for the train that will take us to Bolivia. We´ve had quite a busy few weeks and collected a fair few passport stamps since we wrote the last blog. We left laid back Uruguay and took a night bus to the town of Posadas on the Argentine-Paraguay border.

Arriving in Auckland we were pleasantly surprised that the sun was shining and we felt pretty warm! It was hasslefree to get into the city and we had the added bonus of being upgraded from dorm accommodation to our own room at our hostel! A rare treat.
