Bloody hell you two. You do not seem to be having the trip of a lifetime. You are having the trip of TEN lifetimes It is fantastic that all the planning and research, that you both carried out before you left the cold, boring UK, is really paying off. All of the sights and expeiences, that you are having seem wonderful. They are so random, and not the general touristy stuff that you would expect. We are begining to miss you both like crazy, but these blogs and messages are just about keeping us going. We look forward to the next exciting instalment of your fantastic adventure. I am sure that you will be able to dine out, on your tales of what you have done, for years to come. We are all ok at home, and are so glad and happy for you both. You really did do the right thing by going, and not listening to the old foagies. Carry on having a ball, and we can't wait to hear from you both again. Always in our thoughts. Mum and Farsh. xxxxxxxxx
