I have loved all your Travels and Photo's and will miss the way you gave us all an insight into where you were and what you were doing. I've just printed your last Blog off for Nanna and I know she will get a buzz out of all the Photo's in particular. Don't work too hard. It was great to see you in Moruya. |

| 13th January 2008 Pete | Ammaaaazzzzinnnngggg!! - From: The end of a chapter ... From freezing our butts off camping next to Mount Fitzroy (although laughing at you doing step aerobics on a log kept me warm), to chilling out spending mornings on tropical beaches in Panama (San Blas Islands) and Colombia. From being chased by killer wild boars to sitting in the raft terrified for you as I watched you go down grade 4+ rapids solo (use the boat next time!). From drinking huge jugs of fresh fruit smoothies to eating fresh fish caught only an hour before. From dancing nights away to salsa to watching miraculous sunrises and sunsets in magical places like Torres Del Paine. From watching you grab your first surf wave to actually seeing you buy something that wasn't aqua (yep I still can't believe you actually did it!). We did it all and thanks so much for letting me tag along, its been one of the best experiences of my life and couldn't have chosen a better person to share it with! Wonderful blogs, Wonderful times, Wonderful beaches, Wonderful Buddy, Simply just Wonderful Bega!!! Para Siempre, Pete |

Sorry I couldn't resist because I was looking at your photos and remembering of my time in Barioloche very fondly and thought where is the photo of the saint bernards?!

Have a great Christmas! Love Amber x |

| 2nd November 2007 lizzy | - From: My first two weeks in Buenos Aires! nice hat you're wearing...is that a tathra spectacular by any chance??? |
| 20th October 2007 mum | - From: My first two weeks in Buenos Aires! Lovely to see you . In a way the Calle disparity is a little like the Aus vs American pronunciation of words such as 'schedule' and "SKedule" ; the british pronunciatation of "Vitamins" and aus "v(ai)itamins" etc et c. however it does make it difficult when you are learnign spanish as a second language. the danciing sounds great in Buenos Aires. that kissing gym instructor would go well in Aus at present with the federal election in train!!! |
| 20th October 2007 frances | - From: My first two weeks in Buenos Aires! wow, wish i was still in south america...europe's nice but it's not quite BA! i agree, it's pretty offputting hearing the argentinian accent, takes a while to get used to. sounds like you're having a fab time, keep up the partying! |
