Happy St. Patrick's Day
Did you find any Leppercon there? South America looks very green and fun too. You have me convinced, I'll have to start planning a trip down on bike. Guess you'll be finding some friends to celebrate St. Pats day in La Paz. Hope you brought green vegetable die with you. Guys and friends will do the annual Blarney Stone thing. BTW I hope the high altitude and the hill climb is getting you in better shape for the Sunrun. I’m telling you now I'm changing my method of once a year race day training regiment. If you fell behind training with the ladies (from work) you better start when you get back. PS: I had to edit 'from work' just in case Cara was reading.....haha...Hope to see you (Cara) later at Blarney's.

Hey Richard! You ARE still as white as an Englishman but that is just all part of your charm! :P As Kevin puts it, be very very happy you are where you are! There's a bucketload of wet snow today and a bunch of people who don't really know how to drive. Oh well! It'll be gone by lunchtime! ;) Enjoy your trip to the max and think of your dear friends in the schizoid weather back home. Miss you! Susie

Sunny pictures, but..
..but where's the tan?! You're still white as an Englishman! ;) Glad to hear you're enjoying yourself and getting sround all right. Pics look amazing! Just to make your trip that much better, last night we had high wind warnings and snow with it clearing up overnight and the temp dropping. Ted's comment sums it up: The best reality show to watch was the people trying to drive in the snow this morning. :)

So after Iguazu Falls you should go to Asuncion, Paraguay! Then you should take a bus to Filadelfia and the catch a ride on top of toilet paper tranport truck going to Bolivia but don't stay in Boiyube! I can't believe that is 8 years ago that I was down there doing your trip! Did I mention that I was really jealous?

Hey Dickie! If I'd known you were going there I would I asked you to go and visit the family that Garnet and I stayed with! They live near Kiyu which is about 1/2 way bewteen Montevideo and Colonia. Are you vegetarian? Otherwise I can't see you getting skinny in Uruguay! They eat the most meat per capita! So jealous of you being down there! Love Fi

Maybe you should stay away from bike riding for a bit, given your history.
