| 16th March 2008 Carolina Harboe | I love El Salvador! - From: Easing through El Salvador, the warmest people yet, they´d remind you of Limerick folk. It was so nice to read your comments about my country! Yes, it's true, we really like tourists in El Salvador! Everybody is heartly welcome! |
| 11th January 2008 guanaca | Hometown "Metapan" - From: Easing through El Salvador, the warmest people yet, they´d remind you of Limerick folk. The mini taxis are the best idea the city has came up with in a while. The last time I visit, it was a very pleasant one, because it didn't require a whole lot f walking!!!! LOL |
| 9th August 2007 Anne Nicholl | Hi - From: Tuk Tuking in Thailand Good to read your Thailand blog, havent read one for a while. I love Thia food probably my favourite. Although dont fancy the cochroaches. Ena has booked up for the re-union in September, hard to believe its nearly a year ago. unfortunately i cant make it as Im house hunting. |
| 24th June 2007 Anne Nicholl | Go'day - From: A month in the land down under ! Hi peeps, how do you manage to squeeze so much in. Just read you Oz and NZ blogs, brilliant. Brought back memories of my visit to Australia, which I am hoping to do again Dec/January if my plans come together. Plan to do some whitsundays this time. Although never having thought too much about going to NZ you have changed my mind and it is a definite for the future. You even manged to go to a wedding. got your postcard from Thialand, thanks nice surprise. think you might be home for a holiday just now, and it will feel like a holiday. Enjoy the next stretch of your adventures. |
| 15th June 2007 ENA | Singapore and Australia - From: Singapore- the home of the Tiger (beer that is!!) Hi There. Your blog on above brought back many happy memories when i was there in 1999. Your both great the enthusiasm is still alive. good luck looking forward to the next instalment. |
| 6th June 2007 Vidal Sassoon | New haircut - From: A month in the land down under ! Hi Shiv, did you get your hair cut by?? It looks great! All your lovely pictures, and that's all I can say :) |
| 29th May 2007 Damien Rosney | Hi Dudes - From: New Zealand - "God's own country", "paradise of the pacific" Hi Siobhan & Mozo, Just finished reading your travel blog..........very interesting places ye have been and beautiful scenery in the pictures. I can see why the lady in the store thought Mozo was too young to be buying alcohol. Since he married you Siobhan he looks ten years younger so when he is boasting about how young he looks you should take some of the credit also. Its hard to believe that yere 6 month anniversary has passed and the big one year anniversary is looming. When ye are paying large prices for food and drink try this one for size................we were in Copenhagen for 4 days last week and the beer was 8 Euro a pint in a pub we spent an evening in. At the airport we payed 13 Euro for 2 bread rolls and 2 orange juice. Ireland seems to be a very reasonable place to live after all. The Ireland rugby team are touring Argentina with a makeshift team at the moment in advance of playing them in the world cup proper. There was a fly on the wall documentary on last night of the behind the scenes and dressing room scenes of Irelands 6 Nations campaign. It was excellent and it is very obvious how proud they are of playing for Ireland and how much they want to win .................New Zealand beware. The elections have just finished here and it looks like Fianna Fail will form a coalition with the 2 remaining PD's and a number of like minded independents. Bertie is coming under real pressure about his finances from the tribunal which has restarted and this might make potential coalition partners nervous. There is an outside chance that FG, Labour, Greens & others might form a coalition however this is a real long shot. I suppose ye heard Ireland came last in eurovision........oh the embarrassment. We met Johnny Logan at the airport on the way home from Copehagen and he has got really old looking. Well lads that's all the news for the mo...............take care and looking forward to seeing ye in June. All the best, Damo, Imelda, Stevo & Dara |
| 24th May 2007 Sonya | ???? - From: Time to say goodbye to the Spanish language, for a while anyway! Where's the run down of NZ and OZ??? I'm looking forward to hearing all about it.

Like the website, its really good although not too sure about some of the comments, can you substantiate them please..... We´re in Cusco at the moment. Doing the Inca Trek on the 24th and then back here for Christmas, where we are meeting up with about a zillion people we have met along the way, should be good fun. Where are you spending Christmas again? Merry Christmas!!!! Talk soon, Noel and Poina |
| 19th December 2006 Anne Nicholl | Scary!!!! - From: 1st stop Venezuela Great to read all about your exploits. I'd never heard of Travel Blogs, then again, I only got my first computer this year, that shows you what a technofob I am. Anyway I was about to delete these emails as Junk mail, I am so glad I didnt. You two are sooooo brave, I'm afraid I would have been on the next plane out of there. That said it sounds so differe t and it will be something that you will never forget. I look forward to reading more of your holiday highlights. Hope you are somewhere warm and luxurious for christmas. all the best for the new year and the rest of your trip. Anne |
| 19th December 2006 Leslie Conroy | Are you Guys Bored or What? - From: 1st stop Venezuela Nothing else to add lads, its all in the title. Only joking, I'd stay inside writing novels as well, if I experienced the Quentin Tarantino'esque situations you found yourselves in. Sounds great (really only looked at the pictures), did I say that out loud? Look after yourselves, I really mean that! Great to hear from you both & glad all is well. Keep the e-mails(pictures) coming & will send a Christmas message before....eh Christmas obviously. |
| 18th December 2006 Eamonn Redmond | Hi from Newbridge (Ireland!) - From: Tossa de Mar, the Wedding, goodbyes & get ready for lift off. Hi Maurice and Siobhan, I just spent an entertaining 15 minutes with a coffee reading about your exploits. Sounds like an absolute rave, and a fantastic set of memories. Arootcha cha brought back memories of Killashee, but with a better venue, better crowd!

So for now, continue to have a great time, Congratulations and have a very Happy Christmas Eamonn PS I'm off to a budget meeting now, any chance you'd sell the Big Rig? |
