Hello All!! My final blog!! I hope I haven't bored you all to tears with my inane ramblings! I will be putting up photos at some point when I get a chance to go through them. So the flight home was little fraught! The only flight of the 19 I've done that couldn't be delayed was delayed! I got to the airport and after a bit of a panic that my flight number didn't exsist I found the flight I was meant to be on and it was delayed an hour - I had an hour to t...

So the last week hads been very chilled.

We had our meeting and pretty much everyone was feeling a bit nervous about the trek - 3 of the group weren´t ...

(wrote this a while ago but it wouldn´t up load so here it is and the next update to follow!) Hello! I hope you are all well? So I am now in Peru! I managed to get one more day of sunshine in Rio before I left!
