Glad you have been able to get yourself a new one since so we still have nice pictures to look forward to seeing. Take care x |
| 14th September 2009 katie | - From: Sun Goes Down Mel, It's Monday morning and I am sat at my desk in dull autumnal London looking at your pics of monkeys. The picture of the sunset over Panganderon is awesome. You could make money selling your pics to Lonely Planet. Great to see you so happy and sunkissed. Can't wait for the grand finale instalment on Australia. Big hugs xx |

| 12th August 2009 Lozza | - From: Free Falling My heart was in my mouth reading about your canyon swing, bungy etc!!!! Don't think I'd fancy the white water rafting, knowing my luck I would get thrown out into the water! But well done you for sticking with it! Love the pictures of the elephants, sooo cute! And hearing about your kayaking reminds me of our trip in Oz; hope there weren't any crocs in the water you were in and you didn't lose your sungalsses like last time :) Missing you lots as always xxxxxx |

| 20th July 2009 Barbs | Demons and Angels. - From: Don't stand to close to me Isn't it such a shame that the Ganges is so polluted. I can't imagine what sort of evil lies in that water. Mind you, as it's a place to wash away sins then it's no wonder it's so evil. Glad you didn't go in though, the pool looks much nicer. Hey, like your halo at the golden temple, tehe. |

| 15th July 2009 newquayweb | - From: All Summer Long! yeah, you are quite right there when you said that life is short. Life is so short and also unpredictable. so whilst we are still in control in our lives, we should live it to the fullest and one way of doing so is by making travels and marvel with nature's miracles. congratulations! |

| 11th July 2009 Mell | - From: The Heat is on Another great blog. :) There is a lot of political trouble in Pakistan at the moment too. Glad you didnt encounter any of it, appart from the presence of armed guards. Looking forward to your blogs about India. I have been there 3 times. I love visiting India. It is quite an experience. Mel |
| 11th July 2009 Mama Kocak | Too much heat - no good - From: The Heat is on Sorry to hear you suffered from the heat - suppose every country is different in many ways. Had the feeling that Pakistan looks much better than the previous country - except for the heat - wrong time of the year! Never mind you have been there - better than nothing. Carry on.... love M x |
| 10th July 2009 anonymous | - From: I Predict A Riot Hello TurkishDelight :) Thanks for that blog. I was hoping that somebody would post a first hand experience about what is happening in Iran, to add to what I am reading in the news. Mel |
