Scubadoo Hi Daniel,
Wonderful story again and since I also recently got my SSI (similar to PADI) I so recognize your stories about using up your air in no time, buoyancy and water in the mask. When my instructor used up 30 bar, I soaked up (or rather blew out) 170!!
Cheers,
Auke
Galapagos highlight Gidday Daniel, I love the 'come and feel the place' commentary and have enjoyed the blogs so much that I am putting fingers to the keyboard. Here in oz it's cold and drier than we'd hope, but life goes on, projects come and go like the tide, crops are hanging in there, feed is short. Thanks for the updates it is a fantastic ride from here, so it must be an awesome experience in the middle of it all. Have fun, as if you need encouraging. Regards, Nick
The Whole School Enjoyed Yr Blog I have to 2nd Sam's comment Lonely Planet is where you should be!!! That was an awesome read and not only for myself but most of the teaching staff here at the school were most impressed!!!
Mel says hi and keep having fun!!
Wow Hey Gilmore and Hughie,
I finally got through your blog, I actually printed it off and read it whenever I got a chance. Awesome stuff! I'm really impressed with the photos too, I think you have found your calling Gilmore.... Maybe Lonely planet could do with a writer too.... Anyway all the best on the remainder of the trip, it sounds like ripping good fun

Hey Dan-the-man Wot up holmes? These messages you send are great reading. You have inspired me to get my Patagonian trip off the back burner.
Thanks for the map and card also. Bolivia is touted as the most specy place in S America. Enjoy.

mate!! all sounds amazing and brings back soooo many memories!! on copacabana beach make sure you eat the churros with dolce de leche and also try the hot corn with butter...sold by non other than the little stall men!! and tell anyone who tries to put a henna tattoo on you to bugger off!!!
Torres - my point of view Hi Daniel,
Great to read your story about Torres (and all your other adventures),
I do need to comment of course.
First of all, you didn't wriggle into your tent, you most of all giggled in your tent. You sounded like a bunch of chica's!
Second, I dind't wimp out for a shower. I absolutely needed one, otherwise you guys might have left me behind.
By the way: I did stick to my opinion ' never change a winning sock', so I used the same socks for five days. Did you notice?
Last, thanks for making me sound like a courageous girl. You guys certainly made me push my limits and I quite liked it!
Hope you have the best of times in Brazil and after and talk to you later!
Chau,
Ramona
G'day Dan,
Sounds like you are having an awesome adventure ... you've certainly made the right choice in terms of life experience!! youre stories are great, you describe really well and the photos are fab.
We miss you here, corridor club is not the same, in fact it rarely happens anymore!
Keep having fun, and its great to hear your adventures!! :) Meigs
Some people have all the fun!!!! Well Well....some people have to stay home and keep the home fires burning!! Really enjoying reading about your trip. Same old same old at home. Taking kids to Gold Coast 9th March. Should be a nice diversion. Have bought a 2 storey holiday house on the beach in Kingston South Australia. You might like to stay there for 12 months to get over your trip.
Cheers and have a beer for us!!
