Traveling solo through South America. Hitch hiking, wwoofing, conservation projects, couch surfing, trekking, surfing, kayaking, canoeing, climbing, sand boarding, horse back riding, fishing, glacier trekking, and camping!

Convicts! Not criminals!!
Tim, next time you meet some Aussies, refer to them as convicts, not criminals. Not sure what the difference is but convicts were treated way harsher for much more minor offenses. There has to be some pride in that! I'll leave it to you to look up the differences on Google while your knee is recuperating. Sorry to hear your knee wasn't up to bounding from rock to rock, no doubt a weakness from your triathlon days. Glad to hear you'll be able to try the hike again but with a little more respect for your knees. I'm starting to sound like a sports injury prevention specialist so that's where I sign off! Great photos by the way!

Amazing!!!
Hi little bro, Your pix are remarkable! Amazing! Superb! Unbelievable! I love the pix with peaks and the glacier pix too. Sorry to hear about your knee (you goofball!) but glad to hear you can try it again in a few weeks. I have my fingers crossed that you get an opportunity to get to Antarctica. You will LOVE it. It is the most beautiful place in the world! Love you lots. Miss you heaps. Talk soon.

Tim! These pics are ridiculous. Clearly, am so jealous... Now, not so much skipping and whistling in treacherous terrain or you'll hurt yourself! :) Hope the knee is doing better.
