You can't hike up to rainbow lake in Dec but it is an area that you can Heliski instead apparently! if you fancy trying a bit of that while your out here!

And the rain has come back Evie so you didn't just take it with you unfortunately. Hopefully it will be snow v soon. xxx

Hi both, youve just reminded me how beautiful it was up there - im not jealous at all!! Im loving being back in blighty in the wet, which we seem to have brought back with us. But thanks again for entertaining us it was amazing. Enjoy the new pad & I hope the remondelling comes off well, also keep away from the bears... Take care Exx

Hi guys - love the New Home pics - can't wait to visit! Am liking the idea of hiking to Rainbow Lake - looks amazing. Or will it be totally frozen over in Dec? Take care guys and see you in 11 weeks! xxxxx

hello! vegas pics look great - looks like you 'really roughed it'! can't say i'm surprised that you thought LA was a s***hole. where are you now? we're back in the gorgeous swindon after retreating from a very wet devon. think the only reason why the tent didn't take off is because we used our body weight to keep it down, good job for alex's thorpe ass. alex is off mountain biking with mikker and toby next weekend and I'm off to see Laura who'll hopefully manage her skydive soon! take care and have loads of fun. love alhen

Wow the Vegas pics are amazing mate - looks like a bit of a change to the hostels you've been used to! And you managed to find Godskitchen out there too... excellent xxx

Thanks! can't believe another year has flown past and how different life is now, it was my birthday last year that I first got told redundancy was a real possibility and look whats happened from there....!!!!!

And we did visit Santa Monica on our way back to the airport but it was rank and muscle beach was extremely disappointing, not a musclein sight only rusty old poles!

Hey sweetie - Happy birthday! xxx

Shame you missed Santa Monica , Venice Beach and Hollywood, but agree there's not much else there. Really interested to talk to you about this leg of your trip when you're back as we're going to take a similar route I think

i agree with you on LA- really no idea what all the hype is about. canyon sounded wicked tho- when do you two estimate reaching canada?

Hey there loved the pics of the Canyon - it's stunning isn't it? Kepp em comin xxx

I thought your mum was crazy, but she has nothing on you two. Enjoy enjoy

or i guess now its "have a nice day" and "i love your accent". the animal sanctury sounds mental. skining a horse sounds interesting. if you get bored of cutting up wood you can always be a butcher. had a great birthday got very drunk with toby in cardiff after a great day mt biking. thanks for the card i cant stop singing latino life ar kid. we are off to the lake district on wednesday to go climbing and walking. helen cant wait to dangle off a cliff in her rock boots! . your task is now to get jobs in a ski resort with a big comfy couch. have a greart time in vancover sounds like a amazing city

take care

love alhen
