Where the f**k did you suddenly pop up from?! The next day was a park/shameless cred whoring day, starting with the only proper park in the area. Parque de la Costa There was a train station right next to the place, but the money saved by using public transport over Uber wasn’t worth the mild...

Yeah, it definitely made the effort seem slightly more productive.

I had two more full days in Buenos Aires, so the plan was to just do some sightseeing on the first day and some cred whoring on the second, but I ended up heading out to some “maybe” places on the first afternoon. I started off down here: Then it was across to the back of the...

From Montevideo, I took a ferry across to Buenos Aires, Argentina, which took a little under three hours. You get a decent view of the CBD when you arrive: It was early afternoon by the time I got to the hotel in the Recoleta area, so I decided to stay around there for the first day. The...

From Sao Paulo, I flew down to Montevideo, Uruguay. This definitely wasn’t part of any coaster trip, but it was close enough to another city I’d always wanted to go to and it was a chance to tick off another country as well really. There is a small park in Montevideo, but it was, apparently...

This next bit will just be a bit of a photo dump from a sightseeing day in Sao Paulo. I started off by heading to Independence Park, which also had a history museum in it. The building itself was more interesting than what was inside it to be honest, but the whole area was lovely...

Apologies for the delay in getting to the second part of this report – I know everyone has been constantly refreshing the page – but I’ve been busy at work and I can never be bothered to waste time on these reports at home. After I had already booked flights, I saw that Hopi Hari would likely...

Here comes another long, multi-part report which won’t feature anything particularly interesting in terms of coasters, but it’s from a part of the world that doesn’t show up on here often. My Easter Holiday this year was a few days longer than normal, allowing for a proper long-haul trip...

Everyone's looking at train travel from an individual perspective, and it's absolutely what I would use since i don't drive. Yeah, Thorpe gets a lot coming in on the train, but looks at that demographic: mostly teenagers who can't get there any other way. When you have to buy tickets for a...

Kong, but they're both s**t.
