| 1st July 2008 SazandCarlos | Gay Travel - From: Argentina in Pictures.. How did you find that travel book, interesting how YOU just stumbled across it....... The blog and pictures of SA look great, it's a mega place isn't it. Bolivia & Peru are mega as well and keep the photos coming. Keep on trucking and we think the cactus wooded bike would be a big improvement for Stotty, it looks stronger than anything you have riden in the pass, we are supprised you didn't swap it there and then... Just trying to adapt to the 30*C plus Thai heat, its currently 36*C at the moment, and it only drops to 26*C at night. PS Carl has just been in contact with his long lost brother, its amazing all this time has passed and he has finally got in touch!!!!!!! I think you may know him, or have you helped to put us in contact?? If so thank you... You can read his message on our blog page... Sarah & Carlos xx xx |

We've got the parcel from Budapest and it's been an absolute joy looking at the photos and following your route on the maps you posted back.

The blog is fantastic, so funny in parts, a comedy double act, and so much better when you have decent maps. |

| 11th September 2007 Laura & Murray | Beware!!! - From: Romania - part one Reviewed your Romanian post with a Romanian colleague in the office. He says he is familiar with your route and the places you are visiting. He also says they are Gypsies in that area. Expecially the multi-layered Old Ladies. So beware !!! Those Gypsies will steal your children. Post a few few pictures so we can confirm conclusively the presence of these Gypsies. We are enjoying your trip so far Cheers Murray |
