Hey Claire, sounds like you gals are having an amazing time. Was chatting to Rach yesterday and we were saying how jealous we are! You have some amazing photo's and its brill that we can see them and read what your up to as you go along. Well my travels are going great, next stop Manchester! Ok so it doesn't quite have the same ring to it as the places you are going and I certainly won't be taking any scenic photo's, but still... Any way, take careand I kook forward to hearing about what you get up to next xxxx

Hi Claire, Hope you are well and have not come down with whatever Tash has!! Your photos and descriptions are wonderful and you both look very well. Seems an age since we waved you off and you have seen and done so much, long may it continue! Peru here you come! Take care with love Sue (Tash's mum)

Hey Claire, great to speak to you on msn, just worked out this whole journal thing so will be able to look from now on!!! glad your having a fab time and lots of shopping going on! make sure you both stay safe and take care, love to tash megxxxxxxxxxxx

Hey honey,

Wow your trip looks amazing - I have read all your journal entries and it sounds so cool. You seem to be packing it in! Very jealous, but so glad you are having a good time.

Keep those piccies coming

Miss you
Lots of love Soph

Hi Claire (again!) - just looked at your photos - really good and the one of the falls with the rainbow across the bottom was superb. I have also now realised that I need to look at your photos to see pictures of Natasha and your Mum and Dad will need to log on to Natasha's journal to see pictures of you! I think you have scored in the "who is wearing the biggest sunglasses" competition! Keep the pictures rolling in. Roger

Hi Claire - Tash gave me your link so now I can cross-check both your versions of events! The whole trip so far sounds wonderful and thank you for looking out for my little girl!! Continue to enjoy and I am amazed at how restrained you both have been with the shopping - although I do detect a lot of thought going in to the "buy, parcel it up and post it home option" !! Keep in touch. Roger

Hi Claire - we are still missing you but enjoy reading up about bags.....Dave thinks this is so girly and so you - he requests can we have some South American football results or some beach shots to keep the boys interested....!! Anyway, just to let you know you have some bonus bonds waiting for you a home when you eventually do get home - a thank you from a department in Cardiff when you were helping them with the CBT enrolements - unless you want to come back home now and pick them up....!!!! I think not. Continue to have fun.

Great to hear from you Clairey. Sounds amazing! So pleased its going well and you got there safely. Missing you so much already. Keep us up to date and seething with envy! Tons of love, Em xx

Just to say Hi and hope your big adventure has started off well. Take care and remember to keep us all updated. Kind regards....Sara xxx
