Well now that really is it. We are both gone back home to our respective homes after a gruelling overnighter and a day shopping in Bangkok. Its great to be home now though I am very tired and probably need to go to sleep very soon!!!! Quick summary then of the travels, it was amazing, time of our lives and all that stuff. Favourite place was probably Rio or the Inca Trail. Favourite day was the day we did our too last dives or the day we dived with the dolphins....
