		<description><![CDATA[A few days ago I ventured to the east of Oahu and went on a little hike up Diamond Head Crater. The crater is actually the cone formed from a volcanic eruption. Seen from Waikiki beach Diamond Head looks like a mountain. It is not until you enter the cone through a tunnel that you [...]]]></description>

Waikiki means Spouting Fresh Waters in Hawaiian and at &#8220;The grove&#8221; you can see a recreation of the area as it would have been when the Hawaiian royalty would have seen it when they held the area [...]]]></description>

He was as he would like to say &#8220;like a cookie man, hard on the outside, soft in the middle&#8230;&#8221;. We partied hard, played harmonica and drums during a 4am street riot: one of the fondest memories of my trip. We travelled [...]]]></description>

Hawaii is the 50th State, making it the newest of all the US states, with it being added to the union in just 1959. The hostel I am staying at is on the Southern side of the main island of Ohau in Waikiki. [...]]]></description>

Fairly fitting I figure seeing as pretty much everyone I saw in my time in Vegas was either drunk, or gambling and on their way to being drunk. Vegas is [...]]]></description>

The limestone island was first used as the bedrock for a lighthouse, which is now the oldest lighthouse on the west coast and from there it has been [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[It is strange to think that San Francisco had a population of only 1,000 people when the gold rush hit. The search for riches caused the number of residents of the bay to swell quickly to 25,000 in just one year. It must have been a crazy time, how ever San Fran&#8217;s history stretches as [...]]]></description>

This was the best view I got of the famous Golden Gate Bridge that spans the opening of the San Francisco bay to the ocean. Its construction was finished [...]]]></description>

The sound of the road peeling away under the wheels and the gentle rocking of a cabin should be lulling my senses into a blissful stupor but they bring no respite. I watch through my window into the clinging blackness and try to [...]]]></description>
