Hi Chris, Glad to hear your okay and that the floods havent affected you. was so relieved when i got an e-mail off you!!!! stay safe mate. photos are great. lets be having more of them soon!!!! XXXX

Yeah i've seen a fair bit in the papers & it looks absolutely devistated! Been adding captions to the photos today & it's hard to imagine what it's like now. We nearly didn't go when I was there - think there was two coming up from the gulf but turn away in the end - Lucky!!!

Hey Jen! Yeah was doing a Forrest Gump impreassion there, was the road in the film where he decides he's had enough! Couldn't blame him really.

p.s. Thank God you weren't in New Orleans when this terrible hurricane hit - have you seen any of the footage? It's a disaster zone. As said previously, stay safe and keep in touch.

Hi pet! Keep enjoying this time - it's "once in a lifetime stuff" so make the most of it. You might just have to get a job when you come home - ha! ha! Good job your birthday is coming up so we can all send you some money to top up, what I'm sure is a depleting bank balance!! Best wishes to your travelling companions. Stay safe bonny lad! Love as always Auntie C xx.

Hey Chris, glad to hear that you are well. It looks as though you are having an amazing adventure! Loving the photos, personal favourite has to be the one of you going for a strenuous looking run in monument valley!! Long may the good times continue, take care, Jen xx
