The Little Things: August 2005
http://eolson.blogspot.com/2005_08_01_archive.html
Monday, August 22, 2005. Our first day in China, what a mess! The sun is bright, the air is warm and it's our first day in China! Our plan is to get some currency (because we have zero) and then take the train into Shanghai to tool around for a while. We leave the hotel confused but did decipher that there is an ATM at the train station. DONG, DONG, DONG! No sooner than it pulls away, do we realize that we have no damn money to pay the fare! We look around and eventually come to the House of Flour (baker...

The Little Things: July 2005
http://eolson.blogspot.com/2005_07_01_archive.html
Saturday, July 30, 2005. What is the plural of Platypus? I saw a kangaroo today! I can finally scratch that one off the list. Christine, Halley, Sarah and I went to the Healesville Sanctuary, which is a wildlife park in the Yarra Valley (wine country) an hour outside Melbourne. It's a pristine establishment and is supposed to be THE place to see all the cool Australian animals, such as: kangaroos, dingos, emus, wombats, tasmanian devils, platypus, in their natural habitat. We finally get on a moving tram...

http://viewfromnhhiking.blogspot.com/2006/07/denver-glacier-trail-skagway-ak.html
The View from New Hampshire: Hiking Section. This section of my blog will capture my outdoor adventures. Most of my adventures are hiking trips, but I enjoy outdoor activities of all kinds. Most of my outdoor adventures take place in the mountains of New England, but I have been out west to Colorado, Wyoming, Washington, and Oregon. I went on a 30-day NOLS North Cascades Mountaineering course during the summer of 2003. I was active in the NHOC at the University of New Hampshire while I was there. Alaska ...

The Little Things: December 2005
http://eolson.blogspot.com/2005_12_01_archive.html
Sunday, December 18, 2005. Ho, ho.hot? I just had one of those Zen traveling moments during a walk this evening when I spotted Orion in the sky for the first time, which is the constellation I know best back home. It took me a moment notice that it's upside down (because I'm in the Southern Hemisphere). Then it just hit me just how far away from home I am right now.and there's no place I'd rather be. :-). Take care all and I'll be in touch in two weeks. Expect pictures. Posted by Eric O. @ 11:55 PM.

The Little Things: September 2005
http://eolson.blogspot.com/2005_09_01_archive.html
Sunday, September 18, 2005. It's the thought that counts. This one is a bit tough to read but it says, "Do Not Drive Tiredly". We saw this while on a bike ride tour well outside of Beijing. There's a huge problem with garbage in Beijing because no one knows where to put it. This one was in our room in Dali. I never realized until I saw this how much we take shower safety for granted in the US. Needless to say, for the rest of the trip I kept an eye out for dangerous Landtowels. I was very excited. I wrot...

The Little Things: February 2006
http://eolson.blogspot.com/2006_02_01_archive.html
Monday, February 06, 2006. If anyone calls, I'm on my yacht. On December 19th, after slaving over a paper for the first month of everyone else's summer vacation, I finally handed the sucker in and then hopped onto a plane with the rest of the Leicester Street crew on route to the Whitsunday’s in Queensland. We boarded a maxi sailing. We spent the first afternoon sailing from Airlie Beach to Blue Pearl Bay at Hayman. As long as I am tall. Whew! Dove for the first time and it. It's something I've wanted to...
