It is all looking and sounding brilliant! You have done a good job of selling not only traveling but also NZ. Glad you found your calling Steve. Seeing as you are there for 2 years we will hopefully get a chance to come and visit. Happy Birthday Kate for tomorrow. Will speak to you soon I'm sure xx

Looks great, can't belive you have a lazy boy. The location looks tops too. Good shot of work - very impressed that it is on Queen Street. Brillo on the camper van for free too! It all sounds bloody brilliant. NZ v Auz is gonna be a stonker, keep your phone on, I'll try and give you a call. Hope Kate's job hunting is going well. JRG

Taki! - From: Fiji and the Yasawas
I was made chief as well when I last went so me and Steve would have to do a war dance-off to decide who's chief! I'll have to hook you up with my family if you go again so you can see the real Fiji.

I think we should make Archie that cocktail and post the pictures for you! Pictures look amazing, as usual! I can't believe you didn't join in for the rugby game. Everything here as usual. Bump is pretty big now - only 28 days to go. Still struggling for a boys name - top 2 at the moment are Frankenstein and Elvis - so fingers crossed for a girl xx

Reality???? - From: Fiji and the Yasawas
Looks amazing from the photos guys. Just a quick word to say please do not say NZ is going to be reality!! Think of all of us back here, Bristol smog, traffic, chavs, expensive beer etc!!!!! that's reality! Love Kate

Bubba Gump - From: Santa Monica
And I thought he was a fictional character - who knew he was alive and kicking serving up shrimp to big old Stevo in Santa Monica. Wowzers. We're off to Glasto this weekend - the amount of preparation and effort that's gone into it makes me think we should have done our own travel blog on it! Have a feeling I'll be home by Friday if it's raining! Can't wait until you go to Fiji and meet a load of Archies living together - I'm surprised anyone's still in that place. Keep 'em coming - this one took a long time!!! xxx

loved the lake - From: Puno and Lake Titicaca
Loved the lake people blog. Really fascinating. Do the islands all shuffle around in the night? Must be bloody confusing for the map-makers! Also loved the 'artful dodger.' We've seen a few of those in our time. He should go far! John & Des

change plans - From: Arequipa and Colca Canyon
I should change your plans for New Zealand - they just hammered us at rugby. The kiwis will be unbearable! Does Tesco do Pisco Sour I wonder? Hope the surf's up in Fiji! Dad H.

Steps/Gold/Video - From: The Inca Trail and Machu Picchu
This looks fantastic - Kate I am feeling your pain with coming down the steps. Me and Michael did something similar in Sri Lanka (only for a day) but coming down was the worst - my legs were shaking like leaves (and I nearly cried). Steveo - I'll stump up the money for you to find the gold - you've got 2 years - it'll be like winning the lottery - 50/50 yeah? Not impressed with the video - saw your face but got no hello and where was Kate? Try harder next time.

What fantastic memories you will have. The photos are amazing. Well done you two for making it all the way. Sorry Kate about the blisters but you have to be there to get them. I think you did brilliantly and in flipflops!! It's one place I have always wanted to go - even more so now. Thanks for sharing it with us.

Hello you two, still enjoying your blog entries,what an amazing trip along the Inca Trail, I've seen various travel shows on this but know nothing can compare to actually being there, great stories and photos, you're both doing an amazing job with the writing. I hope the blisters have healed Kate, there's nothing worse!!!!! Stay safe and love to you both. Bun xx

The poor little critter! - From: Cuzco
That poor little guinea pig! It was bad enough being killed and served up on a plate, but then to have a tomatoe hat put on your head and a carrot stuck in your mouth - what a way to go! By the way, the rafting looks sensational, but if you two were in the raft, who took the pictures? Great blog, great trip! John H.

Seasick Steve!!! - From: Uvita and Ballena National Park
Have you seen the dude who is actually called seasick steve? He's about 60 and homeless and does guitar type music - we're going to see him at glastonbury! Keep growing your beard Steve and you could actually become him - brilliant! Loving the black and white function Kate!

Drives looks like a bit of a dude. PG tips and scrabble. that's my idea of fun. good initiative to buy up some proper tea bags.

That bloody frog - From: Jaco / Playa Hermosa
I don't blame you Kate - I was mowing the lawn at the weekend and had to stop because a bloody frog was scaring the hell out of me (admittedly I did think it was a rat to start with because I couldn't see it). All slimey things should be made extinct including slugs and snails. Loving the blog - keep them coming! Hope you're both well and that Steveo is managing to wash (cos he sure as hell ain't managing to shave). xx

To JRG - From: Jaco / Playa Hermosa
Yo, Hermosa is great and i would defo recommend it, it gets bloody hot though and the black sand really absorbs the heat so sunbathing on the beach in the middle of the day is out - its hard enough to walk on. There is the pool however... The other drawback is that there is not much to do in Hermosa but they can organise trips and Jaco is close. The surf is amazing though. Also, we have also just managed to top Hermosa and we both agree it is the best place we have ever stayed. Will hopefully update the old blog soon so you can see. Love to Ami and the little Gerrish Steve and Kate

yo - From: Jaco / Playa Hermosa
this place looks great - think this might be where we go on our trailfinders (dependant on if you find anywhere nicer for us). all good here - the bump is massive - 202 days gone, 78 to go! all the breast.

can't believe you didn't get a cheeky photo of the naked hippie. shame on you. like the photos of the sunset. looks well nice. keep up the good blogging, we're all interested to see what you guys are up to. assume you've checked on the net, but in case you haven't, the city boys have reached the play off final.

That frog! - From: Jaco / Playa Hermosa
That frog has a wicked grin. Saw Kate coming we reckon! No chance of that one turning into a prince! Keep up the wonderful camera-work. Can't wait to enjoy the next installment. Do frogs have a head for heights? We're thinking Inca Trail here! John and Des H.

Found out the strange animal was a porcupine. I didnŽt think it could be as it was asleep in a tree but apparently it is.

jealousy - From: Playa Tamarindo
Have read the whole blog and it took us back. We loved San Francisco too and we didn't see a bear in Yosemite! Sounds exciting where you are now - have a great time. Hope the surf rolls in somewhere along the line. You make us want to visit the travel agent. Keep the blog going - well done!
