Great Blog
I have enjoyed reading your blogs. It seems Bangkok has not changed much since we were there.

Bangkok
Fantastic photos and thanks for the invention of digital cameras! Great hat James and we can't imagine how you can top the splendour of your first stop on the trip. trust Nicole to find a few cats to photograph too, how many have you adopted so far! Happy New Year to you both and enjoy the next stage of the journey. Looking forward to the next instalment. Brian & Lin Maslen

Flying and languages
Hi Nic and James, glad to hear everything is going to plan, I hope that Rio doesn't totally empty the bank account. Anyway just thought i'd share this with you given the flight problems. Just arrived home from Munich with Easyjet, sitting next to me on the plane was a very nice young lady (27) who was looking terrified, it turned out she was from the Ukraine and studying for a BA in languages, Russian, English and German, her accent was wierd given the fact that she has spent 6 years in Los Angeles (scholarship), 2 years in UK and 3 years in Munich. And to cap it off she now lives in North London with a Greek boyfriend. Anyway she proceeeded to talk to me for the whole journey so the plan to doze and listen to music was ruined. I was very tempted to relay your flight experience to her just so that I could get some peace! Anyway enjoy Brazil and take a look at Copacabana beach for me!

I love the pictures of you both rafting - you look like you are really having fun. Every time I look at James I think he is putting on weight (it must be all that Llama and chips!) Love mum masxx

Football news
Sorry Nicole a boring one for James. Forest played 2, drawn 2 ,both 0-0. Man U played 3 only 2 points. Chelsea v Liverpool 1-1 draw, Chelsea got very doubtful pen. Cam U beat Ox U 2-1 last minute goal. Man C top of table played 3 won 3(beat Man U 1-0) Chelsea 7pts. Have you done your bike ride yet? Looks dodgy but should be a great experience. Got your bank statement through up to 11-8-07 looks reasonable. Have fun, take care. Dad
