Hi you two Japan sounds great and we,ve added it to our "Bucket list" See you both tommorrow and have a great trip LOL Dad

Hi again, sorry speling wrong before you get back to me about it, should have been showers etc, having trouble with the wwwww it keeps getting stuck and then not working at all, keyboard probably needs cleaning

Love again to you all

Hi Guys - So Japan sounds great fun, the temples sound lovely and can't wait to see your pics. All ok over here, cold foggie the usual bet you can't wait to experience the good old blighty weather again. Been really busy in the house with decorating and new shoers ect. your opinion will be appreciated when you get back. Take care lol to you and yours from us over here.

Abrigado - or is that Shakespeare?? We have been following religiously (OK - not in a church) and it has been a delight to follow your trials and tribulations?!. We've also heard that Japan is an awesome place to visit, and the fact that you still have the energy to really appreciate such different experiences is commendable (sounds like the knights of the round table). Enjoy the rest of your trip, and all the best from us (4) for 2011 and beyond. LoL Carol, Maya, Monty and the other oke

Hi Guys - Can't believe that it is a year ago you were here for Christmas. The gang asked after you, all a bit jealous that you have done so much more than all of us put together. Maya is practising the snout at the bedroom window, but has a long way to go yet. Enjoy the rest of your trip, and watch out for the short, fat guys with nappies on. LoL Carol and Geoff

Hello! Hope you got my email - I'm telling baby Imogen all about your travels and about how you're doing some of the trips we did in NZ! Sounds like you're having a great time - keep up the blog, it's great!

Thought I'd beat the official blog to say 'Congratulations' and wish you a happy, adventurous, harmonious and long life together.

Love to both, Dad

Hi Both - interesting how Tahiti is revered (spelling??) as being paradise - but not so! Had a chat to all the visitors at Holly-Wood, and it sounds like Lake Windermere might be above Tahiti in the bucket-list. Carol has found us a bull-terrier puppy to be called Maya who arrives in two weeks time - will send a piccy. Went to Finsbury two weeks ago - water very low, but then the heavens opened. Probably over 100 mm of hail (mostly) and rain for the afternoon - caused quite a bit of damage with all the "waterfall" gulleys eroding the hiilsides. Fish hopefully are still there. Weather here hot - still a bit too dry. How is Danny, by the way? Samantha won the under 19 SA climbing championship last month - but she doesn't like it to be broadcast. (Modest - a bit like your Dad and .......me??!!). LoL to you both - hope that it picks up after Tahiti. C & G & Monty

hahaha like the San Jose discription!

Loved the Macaw picture and back a bit the Turtles to which Mum refered So jealous. You seem to be having a great time. Were off to Egypt on Wednesday and fortunatly there are NO wasps nest in our Attic so we can use our suitcases
Love to you both

Blogs and photos area a great way of keeping up with your adventures. They are getting better and better. Really enjoying reading.

Just off to Switzerland. Went into loft for suitcase and saw a football size wasp nest in the corner and angry occupents emerging. Have bought new suitcase! Love to both Dad xx

Hi you two. Mum here. Photos and blog really interesting and I am not at all jealous re turtles etc!! (I love turtles). Dad is also jealous as he would have loved to have snorkelled with both. Nice to see pictures of Nils as well - I hope he is well - give him our love if you speak to him. Just come back from Cornwall where we spent a week on the Polwheveral Creek - absolutely stunning but you know what I am like in that County! Back home to normal stuff like getting allotment tidy, picking produce and trying to get Caroline's room decorated (I did say trying!!). All okay here, except now I am a football widow again. Go to Egypt in a couple of weeks which should be hot, hot, hot! We will hopefully get a chance to do our own bit of snorkelling. Enjoy your trip Love you Mum xx
