Hi Chris and Alice, lovely to hear from you again. Glad you are still enjoying your adventures. I am following your route on a map of the world that I keep by the computer. Everyone sends their love. Take care of yourselves and keep on blogging! xxx
Dan: message from London Hey Chris, hey Alice, have just been reading up on your latest adventures feeling very jealous as England seems so unbelievably boring compared with all the places and people you have come across! I would imagine it must be difficult sometimes being away in a totally different world, and I'm sure when you get back and hear about all your travels we'll only be getting a glimpse of what its really like out there! - I suppose its one of things you have to experience yourself to understand! But it must be amazing and hope you two are enjoying yourselfs and having an awesome time. Dan x
ps. There maybe a strip club opening in Alton and likin the hair chris - awesome!
Not Alot haven't really got anything to say, just a bit bored at work. Actually a bit's not the right phrase, it begins with a F and ends in ing.
I've been editing a 1minute song about cranes for over a week now and im incredibly close to throwing the computer out the window. Although I will get a credit for it, which is more than I was on before.
Hemel Hempstead's getting better we found a pub within walking distance that brings food out at the end of the night if thats not a good enough incentive to get completely trollied i dont know what is.
Rock on and bring me back a monkey or an oompa loompa they come from Africa dont they?
Rain, what rain? Yes the British winter, driving into work with the lights on and getting soaked walking to town. Can't believe how long you guys have been away now. No replacement for you Chris yet in work, the big DL was particularly complimentary about you the other day. Bit of news for you, he is getting married! Dust down your best suit!
Sorry to hear about the awful boat crossing, but I look forward to more stories from your travels
Love Sarahxx
Love from Devon You guys sound like you have had a rough time of it but sounds like an amazing experince! Your hotel with brown water sounds just like my flat in Mr Frodos house! You have done so much and so much more to do! I think of you often and cant wait till you come and stay with me in my new home! Stay safe and happy! Much Love Claire
dysentry? - you were lucky! Oh how you'll laugh when you look back on these times. We are missing you madly and look forward to sharing some more tasteful tales whe you get back.
keep safe

you do look like serial killers - quite worrying! ( only joking) . glad that all well, sounds like muchos funnos. miissing you both. hope you will blog us back when we start our adventure - although only a mini one compared to yours. love and hugs kate and mark.
mmm! good to see the blog up and running again. were you feeling as though it was an essay you had to get in on time and just couldn't face doing it? Never mind it's a superb offering and makes interesting if alarming reading. Alice in that dress....... I've now seen everything! Keep it up Al. you might just have beaten your passion for clothes. Love and hugs to you both Mum and Dad
Where've you been? I was worried that you'd been abducted and forced into hard labour. It sounds like you have been doing some incredible and incredibly weird things. I hope you have the big lady dirty dancing on tape for posterity!
Things here are good, it is a lovely sunny day.
Great to hear from you both and hope to hear more very soon
Sarah

errr .... something funny Yeah Well I've baught a rug for my new flat, beat that.
On a lighter note Ed's broken his back in two places, fell off a rock face 6 meters up onto his head, and he didn't even do it on purpous.
unfortunately the wonderfull moment wasn't caught on camera God I wish I saw that.
Oh yeah he's okay, still walking etc, just as annoying,
me and dad went to get him broke down in north wales called the AA, dad got angry witht the AA, after getting the car on the pick up told the bloke to "shove it up your Arse", 20 meters down the road the car's unloaded, wait anouther 2hours for the next pick up company.
Not happy, but the important thing is Ed looks really stupid with his neck brace on.
Check you later you crazy cats
Chris bring me back some Palm wine that sounds goooood
Hello! Its so good to hear from you both! And 'my' haven't you been busy! It puts Alton to shame with no dancing people or perfect beachs, but come to think about it waiting 5 hours for a bus sound exactly like Alton! I hope all is well, i miss you so much especially as i face my big move to Exeter in the next few days, 1 question how do i convince mum that i do need to take ALL my shoes with me? I mean a girl needs 6 pairs of stilletoes, 4 pairs of boots, 5 pairs of day shoes 7 pairs..............!
I am soooo jealous I cannot believe what you 2 have crammed into this time -you'll have enough to talk about for years to come. Good luck to you!!!
Thanks for the email - I'm fine - feel a fool really -I think it was just a virus. Would be good to see you both at Christmas. Take care always.
Love Lynne et al xxxx

Friday I just got Cynthias E-mail that reminded me that it is Friday and I thought of you, which inspired me to look at your web site - WOW what a journey can't wait to show Se on Monday, love Ca
Coffee? Hi both,
I bet that kettle makes a better cuppa than we get here!! (You'd know Chris!) Glad to see that you are both still smiling and enjoying it. Keep the blogs coming. Take good care.

re-open communications hi alice and chris. so glad to see some photos of you after what seems a long spell without. You both look very relaxed and clean! Well done. Your travels and adventures make ours seem quite tame - although I think we've eaten better than you. All love mum and dad
Loving the hair Bit of a shock, but I am sure it is much cooler all shaved off! Great that the photos are back and it still sounds like you are both still really enjoying the experience.
Looking forward to the next installment

thank goodness so good to see you back on line, the photos made me cry as it was such a relief to see you my darling alice with a smile on you freckled face. chris, you look v skinny - i take back by comments about your weight gain before you went away as i can now see that without it you would have vanished by now! the green stuff looks good and it must be a relief to have a little respite from the heat and sand. i told you that tapes worked all those years ago didnt i ali ?! love you both. take care, big huglets, kate xxxxxxxxx
