Calgary looks cool, love the Joey tomatoes!! No opinion on the hair though Ben, you need to add a photo in which you're not wearing a hat so we can see what it looks like. Jo looks gorgeous as ever of course ;-)

Jasper Wasper Your shots of Jasper look fantastic. What a place! Absolutely p***ed myself reading about the freak show in the basement, so most of Yell have heard that story now! Look how you brighten lives many miles away with your stories! Oh and Benny, please don't bully Joey about her clothes or with snowballs! Take care. x x x
Lucky B******s Glad you're both having so much fun, its looks absolutely lovely!
We know you'd rather be here though....selling a 'Hoof it for Horses' feature.
We'll keep checking on you, take care.

JEALOUS We are so jealous. Pictures are great. Haven't spoke to my sister but did you contact her. Daniel said he passed on her numbers on Sunday (10th). Take care and we'll be watching you.
We're about to set off on our very own adventure. Traveling first to Canada we will take a tour into the Rockies and back. Then from Vancouver we will weave our way down the west coast to LA then, time permitting venture into Mexico and hopefully Belize or Gautamala. From LA we will fly to Fiji for a two week break.....It's Jo's BIG birthday and being 30 I couldn't think of a better place to be all depressed!! Christmas will be spent bungy jumping in New Zealand then Sydney for New Year..... : ) can't wait. We'll have nearly 6 months in Oz so we may use our working visa's : S
