Yellowstone in winter
Sounds like a wonderful trip. I'm jealous. It's been almost 8 years since I was there last. We also snow-shoed through the Tetons in February. Found this link for a cool trip with a great organization to Yellowstone in winter that would be a unique way to see the park: http://www.amnhexpeditions.org/expeditions/show/49

Presentes
Dear Robson and Benoit Thank you so much from Stella and Peter for your presents. Stella was ecstatic with the stamps you sent her (we really only expected 2 or 3 stamps, certainly not books, from places you visited!). But that is a treasure! Peter is already immersed on his book learning facts and coming to us afterwards full of knowledge: "Mum, did you know that this dinosaur etc, etc". I kind of lost track of the log since the holidays began. But I'll get back to it once the children are back at school. I wish as always that you are enjoying every minute of this adventure. Lots of love and God bless. Denise xxx

Hi guys, hope you are both well. Your blog looks great - lots of fantastic photos. I particularly liked the ones with all the huge trees - looks beautiful. All going well here - the weather is pretty rubbish though apart from the two weeks and the end of June and beginning of July. No need to water the garden anymore as it rains at least once a day! Anyway, have fun and I look forward to your next episode.

Hello guys
Hey guys, I see you are doing very well and enjoying your trip as much as possible. It must be a wonderful experience. It's great that we can enjoy it also a little bit due to the stories that you have written on this blog and the beautiful pictures (offcoarse thanks to the new camera ;-)). Here in Belgium everything is fine. We still don't have a flemisch government, so everything is as usual. The weather is hot (+- 30 degrees). Unfortunately I have to work but it stays warm till late at night. Have a great time there at the other side of the world Bye, Peter & Sophie xxx

name of village
OK, you know it is written in Cyrillic alphabet, don't you. So with a bit of googling you should be able to find it... And what about the other picture, the one with water?

We guess...
The name of the place must be "Uitkerke" I 'm sure and the other picture must be a tooth of... Toots Tilemans, completly disformed by playing his mouth-harmonica. Geniet verder van uw fantastische wereld-trip. Wij volgen u op de voet langs deze blog en Google earth. Etienne en Yvette - TORHOUT

Great to see your blog!
Hi guys Madeleine and I are back home in York now but still in China in our minds! Missed you on your last day at the red Wall Hotel but we felt we had at least said goodbye and had our hugs at the restaurant in the Oriental Plaza in Beijing. (Hope you enjoyed the aubergine Robson!)... We have some pics to email you but will do this later... When in China we heard that our neice Claire and her husband Adam had been delivered of a new baby - a boy - and they have named him - BEN!!! This news was long awaited and his name is such a bonus to us - as we know 2 Ben's - one in York and one is YOU - on a year long travel with his partner! Robson - I hope you are not too dissapointed - we do have another neice expecting a baby in America - but I am unsure of the odds of her having a boy and naming him Robson - but we live in hope. Wishing you guys all the best - we missed you as we were on our own once we left Beijing. But had a great time in Xian and in Shanghai. Will follow your blog avidly--- Love from Terry and Madeleine

Wow
Mongolia has so much mystique. Thanks for sharing. i wish i could go there but from what ive gathered, its cheaper to go to wealthier countries than to underdeveloped countries like mongolia and africa. and mongolia is beyond my budget at the moment but i hope to visit someday. thank you

Hello!! Thank you for the postcards!!
Hi to you both, I did receive your postcard from Malaysia and have been addicted to your blog ever since to keep up with your travels (I did send an email to let you know but it must have gone astray). I am loving your descriptions and also your photos - they really capture what you are experiencing. Now your in America and visiting a few places I have been its really nice to revisit them with you, but I have especially enjoyed reading about your experiences in the (many!) places you have travelled that I haven't been to. Its an amazing trip of a lifetime and its great that you are meeting some lovely people along the way. Missed you Robson at the end of the course - its all done now and so far I seem to have passed so at least the stress counted for something - i'll still never know how you finished it all before you left. thanks again so much for giving me the blog details - its saved to my favourites bookmark! Take care guys and have fun, I look forward to haering about the next stop! love Jen xx
