Fantastic photo!
Our visit to Wat Pho was on a VERY hot Saturday with massive crowds - I'd love to see it again on a less busy day.

Looks stunning!
Really enjoyed reading this post. Greece is on our medium term travel list, but I think it's starting to sneak up into the short term list :)

Thanks, glad you liked the post! I was pleasantly surprised with Greece; Athens was really cool, Meteora stunning and Santorini, well, the pics speak for themselves...don't think I'd want to do it in peak season though, think it would be a zoo...

Santorini is for lovers
We loved our time in Santorini and hope to go back one day. It is one of the stunningly beautiful places on earth.

Boots or Shoes?
Hello I am training for my trek in June is it as cold in the mornings as they say it is? I have got myself some boots but apparently people do better in hiking shoes? Or should I take both? thanks shoesprayloveldn.blogspot.com

El Trail
Not sure how cold it is in the mornings in June but the second night for me (October) was about -5 degrees Celsius, the third night a bit warmer but about the same...never thought it was all that bad, the sleeping bags G Adventures provided were very warm, and tea was always ready for us as soon as we got up. As for the shoes, I wore boots and was fine, most important thing is that they be comfortable and broken in, blisters be bad...you can only bring so much on the trail anyway so not likely practical to bring shoes and boots (recommend waterproof, we had rain for half the day on Day 2)...any other questions please let me know...

Tour Group used
Hi! I'm in the process of researching what group to go with for the Inca trail four day hike. Could you tell me which one you used and if it was a good one? Or any others you could recommend after doing it? Thanks so much! Danielle

Inca Trail
Hi Danielle, I went with G Adventures for a full two week tour, which included the Inca Trail...I was impressed with them; it was well organized, great guide, good food and the porters seemed to be well treated and compensated as far as I could tell (they ate what we ate (no scraps or leftovers), they all wore G Adventures shirts and jackets etc.). There were other tour companies on the trail that looked similar but I can't comment on them, I would highly recommend G Adventures though...hope that helps, any other questions please fire 'em my way.... Jeff

Oh man, no idea, sorry...I did the Inca Trail/Machu Picchu with G Adventures, and the same guide did both the trail and MP...
