Thanks for your blog, you wouldn't catch any of us near those lions.

The animals that you mentioned I see on the television "Animal World"

Just wishing you both a very Happy Easter!!! We look forward to reading your messages.

Love to you both x x

Hi you two....hope you are well.....been enjoying catching up with your travels and hope the past week has been another exciting time for you!

Just been chatting to Rhiain on msn....you'd think on holiday in Mexico she might be having too much fun to think of those of us in not so sunny England.

Look forward to your next installment...take care

Love Aunty Rachel, Uncle Martin

Hi again Tom & Emma

Catching up with you again and glad you're having such a great time.The nearest we get to being on Safari is watching 'Wild at heart' on TV! Mind you, grandma gets homesick if she walks to the bottom of the garden and it takes granddad all his time to get her to go to Blackpool. It was lovely to get your postcard.

Loads of loveGrandma & Granddad

Here we are communicating at last! Delighted to know that you are having a wonderful time - hope the photography is going well - must be lots of marvellous things to take - look forward to reading your next update. Take good care. With our love. G & G S.

Hello again. Glad that you enjoying yourselves still. Hope you not finding that teaching lark too hard going!! We're very jolly at the minute as just started two weeks Easter hols! Yippee. Sam had a great time in Whitby and reckons he walked ten hundred miles!! Hope you managed to find some nice Easter chocolate over there. Cadbury Mini Eggs are going down a treat at this end!

Take care. Lol xxx

Hi Tom and Emma

glad to hear you are still enjoying yourselves. Sorry that we can't get your easter egg to you this year Tom, but we will eat it and think of you!! Betsy has just recieved an email from Rhiain, she sounds like shes having a fantastic time in Mexico. And Freddy is in Rome at the moment (on a school trip) also having a great time. So Uncle Guy, Betsy, Rosemary and I are feeling very jealous of all you globetrotters!!

take care, lots of love to you both. xxx

Hello. Just to let you know your horse prefers me. I am now riding like Zara Phillips after only 2 goes. We will make the 2012 olympics. Hope you have stopped frightening Clifford with your driving. Love Aunty Josie XXX

PS your Mum says I am now walking like John Wayne. It's a lie.

hi tom glad you are having a good time. Did you see any hippo's on the safari? Were their bums as big as yours? i am off to whitby on monday. Leeds are doing well but not sunderland! mum and dad say hi.xxx

Just received your pre Safari postcard when you were still in Capetown, old news but nice and amusing to receive. With regards to the trinkets, if there are any nice Giraffe's about that you can fit in your bag, that would be ok. Just on with the big muck out, in the wind, hail storm and sunshine, so you see it isn't only you that is having the fun. Happy and safe travels. Love mum.

Dear Tom & Emma

Sorry for the delay in messages. Only just learnt how to communicate. We were born in the stone age when messages were hacked out on rocks (not elephants!) So glad you are both OK and enjoying the experience. Me, grandma, is used to writing six page letters- make nothing of these new fangled things called laptops(old fuddy duddy!) Take care, love you loads.

Hi guys, just been catching up on your adventures so far - sounds fantastic and very jealous, great to know your really enjoying it. Sounds like your making better progress on four wheels than your previous expedition on two! (At least the chain can't fall off a car!) All well here, football results not good (lost again today) but still above than the mags! Took Debbie to see the Killers last week with Luke - awesome! Keep enjoying all the opportunities your getting, take care, love and best wishes, D&D, x
