Great descriptions of our jeep tour it brought me right back !!! hope you guys are good and miss yous loads lots of love xxxx |
| 1st November 2009 Gerard | and the flame lives on...... - From: A Special Fiesta of Sport Wow! What a coincidence to happen upon an event so close to your heart and on your travels. I like the way they celebrated - none of the tacky political pageantry of the 'real'games but people just knowing how to enjoy themselves and let their hair down. I do worry about you two - will you ever settle for mundanity after all your adventures? Keep on truckin'.................. |
| 24th October 2009 Joy | Salt flats - From: Tupiza to Uyuni - A journey out of this world Absolutely amazing. I want to see it all ! Great descriptions. I have to admit I can't help smiling thinking of James 'supremely elegant when standing and majestic in flight ' ,is this the result of your experience at the Bolivian wrestling match ? Ha ha. Yes ,I know you meant the flamingos-I think . Congratulations to Paula and Yoav . |
| 24th October 2009 Joy | Special Olympics - From: A Special Fiesta of Sport What a wonderful opportunity and experience to see the Special Olympics in Bolivia. The video really captures the enthusiasm. A definite feel good factor hearing about the Fiesta of Sport. Surprised wrestling wasn't included-a missed opportunity for play acting in style ! |
| 24th October 2009 joy | wrestling - From: Girl Power Bolivian Style James,since you wrote this blog I can only assume Jessica had taken note of the moves and was prcatising ! Is that a worried smile on your face or bemusement ! Great description ,sounds like a noisy fun evening . |

| 23rd September 2009 Ellen & Rachel | - From: Explosives training in Potosi Rachel wants to know was there spiders in the mine that would be the least of my worries. The two of you must me mad you won't get me going down there eventhough Tio was watching over you both. Ellen |
| 20th September 2009 joy | POTOSI - From: Explosives training in Potosi James,your account of the conditions in the mine was very moving.I hope the horrendous working conditions start to improve under the new president.Your description made me feel as if I was present with you on the tour . |
| 13th September 2009 Joy | Journey from hell - From: Filadelfia Freedom: Escape to Boliviaīs vineyards Couldn't stop laughing ( and feeling sorry for you both ) as I read yoyr hilarious account of your escape from Filadelfia ! As I read,I actually thought 'They could do with a glass of wine or beer' .Was wonderful to read on and here about your wine tasting afternoon. I'm sure you both slept very well. I have never tasted or seen Bolivian wine here but wil keep a lookout for it now. |
| 13th September 2009 Joy | Paraguayan connection - From: The Paraguayan Connection I love reading and re-reading your blogs. I see different interesting features in the photos every time I review them.I also learn more about your trip. I have just realised the riot police were training and there wasn't a riot !I thought you sounded very calm and dismissive about the experience apart from featuring on TV, now I know why . |
| 13th September 2009 Joy | - From: Family fun in Rio Wonderful blog and will always be a reminder of the fantastic three weeks we spent with you both.We had our personal guides in you both.Your SA Spanish /Portugeses and knowledge of everyday life in South America helped us have a wonderful holiday. |
| 13th September 2009 Joy | Power of water - From: The Power of Water - Iguacu and Itaipu Fabulous photos,all were amazing especially the one with the rainbow.I have to admit thinking James as Tarzan as I read,had a problem imagining Jess as Jane though. |
| 13th September 2009 joy | Paraguayan connection - From: The Paraguayan Connection What a wonderful day you both experienced. You must have been exhausted by the early start -just as well you had lots of rest when we were over ! Why were there riots ? James,as a farmer's son ,could you answer whether it is only Paraguayan chickens that sit on the branches of tree or is this a universal phenomena ?Very funny photo . Looking forward to the next blog |
| 8th September 2009 ellen | Whow!! - From: The Power of Water - Iguacu and Itaipu The pictures are briliant you can almost hear the thunder of the water. I never imagined you could have so many waterfalls together would love too be there just to see the scale of it. Ellen |

| 28th May 2009 OneWaySupertramp | - From: On Behalf of the Colombian Tourist Board Thanks for the comments on the photos, we just hope they did the country justice. As for a smiles...we have many many wonderful memories of friendly Colombian smiles. Itīs just that sometimes people feel uncomfortable when there is a tourist with a camera in their face so we donīt take photos in those circumstances. But we will never forget the Colombianos. From Jess and James |

| 14th April 2009 gerardy | Loved the bus.... - From: The Chicken Bus you really do paint a very vivid picture and transport us to your world of travel.The buses remind me of those found in Goa that travel to Mapusa market- no such thing as Health and Safety there. I have a mental picture of Jess tumbling off the bus like one of this Tom and Gerry cartoons where ther is just an image of a body smashing through the screen and shrieking -not that Jess would ever do such a thing! I am also old enough to remeber bus conductor/resses or 'clippies' as they were known on the good old PMT -Stoke-on -Trent buses- affectionately known as 'Potteries Muck Trucks' - think chicken buses minus the chickens. As for the boy and his P**- let me tell you that at my age a 'Jiffy'bag is a necessity on long journeys- and you can put whatever construct on that that you like!! Carry on posting- its a delight and an education...if I were 20 years younger.......... |
| 14th April 2009 superviajera23 | - From: The Chicken Bus Brilliant post! |
| 12th April 2009 Joy | Chicken buses - From: The Chicken Bus Great read. Sounds similar to the Mammy Wagons in Nigeria and buses in Barbados but Central America buses certainly are far more adorned . A tip I picked up from a book-sit in the midddle of the bus,never the front.Middle is the safest place in case of an accident. |
| 7th April 2009 gerardy | hi.... - From: The Panama Canal have just caught up with you guys again. C and I are back in Skiathos after a very intense winter. Thanks for the pix of your darling sisters....you are both looking very well and obviously enjoying the 'canal' as we travellers call it.....keep well and happy! |
| 29th March 2009 Ellen Conry | Guiness - From: Not an average day - we survived and earthquake and saved a sharkīs life Any chance there was a pint of Guinness near the Toucan. I think ye would deserve that after risking your lives saving a shark no matter how small he/she was. The 2 bananas in one a real recession buster for back home -- since its deals all round to get people to spend money. 2 for the price of 1 no extra packaging. Take Care Ellen |
| 20th March 2009 Joy | Peak District Training - From: Walking and Flying Through Monteverde Cloud Forest Hi,I couldn't stop laughing after reading this fantastic blog -great description and pictures.Not just the photos of trendy waterproofs but the lack of appreciation of my efforts training you for the supertramp tour when you were a teenager.See ,parents really do know best .We told you it would be worth the walks!!Sadly,Serena and Ciara totally agree with your description of Peak District walks!Love to both of you.Keep the fantastic blogs coming. |
