belated happy new year Catherine - just catching up with your blog. Think you should start up a new career as a travel writer. Fantastic read. Glad all is well and that friends seem aplenty. love Sarah x
Yes - it is difficult to keep up the blog but I will try and make an effort as we will be camping a lot in Chile and therefore not always having access to Internet. Today, we were meant to climb up a volcano but the weather was against us.
My birthday was fine thank you. I will give you both a ring within the next week or so and catch up on news.

Re Week 5 Great to receive your new blog. We hope you were able to celebrate your borthday in style. Had a glass of wine in your honour. You'll be far south by Christmas but we will be thinking of you warmly, Take care. love XX
Lovely to get your comments - I had no idea you had been to Bolivia. Let's definitely catch up when I am back in the UK from May 2008 and catch up on stuff.

Thanks Lorelli - how did your trip go to Kathmandu?
Also, I know it´s very early to ask but I wondered if you could either give me the name of the lady who might be able to rent something to me in May in Woking - or perhaps make some enquiries yourself though I don´t want to overburden you. I will be back in the UK on the first Bank Holiday and would like to try and have something sorted before I get back. No worries if this isn´t possible but thought I´d ask when I next emailed.

Yes - sorry to make you all jealous - but then again, it won´t be long before you take your sabbatical :)
I´m having one adventure after another at present - just cycled the world´s most dangerous road in Bolivia.

I´m not sure how much I will remember as my brain is so relaxed! Wonder if you might be able to give this link to those who know me at WCC - specifically Lynda Tyrell and Denise Mead as the emails they gave me don´t seem to work.
Many thanks

I´m sure you know more about this than I do so I bow to your superior knowledge. How was your trip to Australia - where are you now? Are you going to sail around the UK or further afield as you thought?
Catherine
I am trying to keep off the cocktails as much as possible - just difficult when you are with a bunch of 20 year olds that don´t seem to suffer from hangovers!
We will be in Mendoza - wine country in Argentina when I have my birthday!!

good food and drink abound! Hi Catherine great to hear about the food and interesting cocktails/drinks you seem to be tasting. I can see a party coming when you return... Much love Jane x You look so relaxed, great to see the photos.

I've looked up Coriolis effect in Wikipedia and it claims the change in direction isn't due to that, might try to understand what is supposed to cause it. It's amazing that the effect changes immediately each the equator. What I've been taught is that Coriolis acceleration is due to a change is radius of a partical rotating about an axis.
Wow C, you'll be a wealth of knowledge when you get back. I'm not saying you weren't before :). I was almost jealous but not quite, still delight in creature comforts I'm afraid. YSxx
