If that is true, then Chris is spoiling you - you are all going to go soft! Yes, I am covered all over by mozzie bites, but I figure they are going to have had their fill of me soon, and will leave me alone.

A novel? Hmmm..... now that is an idea - that will be my excuse for setting up permanent camp out here and chuck in the office job ....!

Chris has gotten us all mini fridges stocked with beer and small HD TVs for our offices so that we can watch the Olympics. How come you never did that? I hope that you are enjoying the "Mozzies"

Dear Auds, What a start to your trip! A novel in the making :) Take care, enjoy it all and my family here in holland also looks forward to hearing your adventures, be safe, hi to your travel mates. Mieke

Hola Chris! Just got off th bus at Ciudad Bolivar, and am dying to brush my teeth and have a shower (hang on - this is deja vu ... didn't this happen at the cutover? I knew that experience was prepare me for bigger things to come ). I was not going to mention work - but I hope everything is going well!

Hola! Go girl! sounds like the adventure you were looking for! :o) Be safe, have fun, look forward to your next blog. Tenga buenas noches. Ciao.

I am definitely not going short on the wine. And yes, I do miss you all, but what I miss most now is a Hot shower! I wonder why they even bother putting a hot water tap in if there was no intention of ever piping anything through it!

Happy travels! David, I think Audrey will miss both in the Amazon :-)

What do you think Audrey will miss the most (besides us)? I am thinking alcohol...or LA traffic.

Are you still in LA ? We are pending your stories...
