The Big Bang Once again it was worth waiting for but we are starved for more although the thought of gordon on a motorbike with that contraption AND lethal fireworks makes one shudder - and there is still the Amazon trip to come - get on with it! x Taffy

Postcard from Galapagos Hi Wendy & Gordon - thank you very much for your postcard which arrived this morning - that was so thoughtful. Ben is coming up with the rest of the Hartley Bunch on Tuesday, so it has arrived just at the right time - he will be doing some voluntary work but I know visits to places such as the Galapagos are on the agenda. I've loved keeping up with your Blog thereby sharing in a small way some of your adventures. I hope 2012 brings you both great happiness, love Lois
Gallivanting in the Galapagos - The end Once again our roving reporter has done us proud. Good to wake up on a Saturday morning and have a laugh at his inimitable style of writing. Keep going. Love Taffy xxx
Words are not enough... but I'll try anyway! Wow wow wow! Your blog and photos are incredible and really gave a sense of the whole trek - am definitely going to be one of the crazies myself one day! Really enjoying reading about your travels and finding it all inspriational! lots of love to you both and big big hugs. What an achievement :-) xxxx
I thought you could comment on each photo but cant work out how to - the photo of you all in wetsuits, with G's off the shoulder has to be the photo of the trip. Who knew he'd make such a great tranny...! ;-)
Happy Christmas Hi Wendy & Gordon - this is just to wish you both a Very Happy Christmas.I have been following your travels with great interest - a fantastic experience which you'll never forget. Peter joins me in sending you our love and very good wishes for 2012, love Lois
Galapagos Jacque Cousteau's flagship - one point (or perhaps pint) please!
You'd have thought that after all of the experiences so far on this trip, Wendy would have started to come out of her shell by now!
Earthquake in ecualdor Payback time Gordon Pittendrigh! Will remember that one. Luckily those of us that know you also know that you are prone to exaggeration! You wouldnt have got me near the iguanas either. Love Mumx
"no imagination these people ..." Houses all looking the same reminded me of Coronation Street! lol
Perhaps the lady with the shaved eye brows wanted her mascara to demonstrate her permanent state of shock - it's a very common phenomenon in Nigeria too.
WOW Your blog for Machu pichu has surely made me realise what inspirational people you are. reading it brought tears to my eyes at your achievments as a couple. i am so proud to be your friend.... OOOh and a little jealous.... looks fantastic... missing you tho... xxxxx
Galapagos To the Galapagos we will go
Where the guano is piled up like snow
Whilst the penguns are dear
There ain't no cold beer
So it's back to the mainland we go
