Hi all. Photos from South Africa, Hong Kong and the first few from Nepal are now updated so take a look. Kathmandu is like nowhere I've seen before and has to be experienced at least once. Having a great time but really looking forward to getting out in the mountains on Sunday.

Hi Rich, while you already made it to Hong Kong, Chris and me are meanwhile back home since Friday, 13th. After leaving Buccaneers we went on more or less to where you came from and had another great two weeks, met Sebastian again finally in Cape Town, where we finished our journey with a few days staying around there. I was curious looking in your online diary and think I'll do again from time to time just to get a little piece of an idea what travelling around the world feels like ;-) ? wishing all the best for you, cheers, katrin

It's a hard life - remember us poor b*****s back in Blighty!

As I look out today, visibility is about 50 yards and decreasing.....not quite the views you're getting from Victoria Peak......you sense I'm jealous

 Take care in the big wide World and keep sending the photos

Zo, everything happens for the best and I know you'll do well in whatever you decide to do next. It would be great to see you in Thailand if you can manage it.

Matt, good to hear from you matey. Glad you're still working hard. I tried to get you a present from South Africa but no amount of bribery or bartering could prize the uniform Baseball cap away from the employees of 'Mr Price', a South African chain store. Sorry mate.

Hello hun,

Glad you are ok.  Sorry for not logging on earlier.  Pics look amazing - am totoally jealous...but hey, i may be joining you!!!!  You know why!  Maybe Thailand again..that would be lovely.

Trust you to be swamped with the ladies already! The guys n girls all look like they're taking good care of you but i'm not sure about taking you caving...are you mad!!!? What has all that fresh air done to you?  Shark diving i'm fine with as you know but did you actually do it?

Have fun in Hong Kong - don't forget to try and do the dragons back walk.

Lots of love x

Hiya Rich,

Pic's look wicked mate - only going on this site when am having a good day. Seems like your having a great trip enjoy it dude.

Take care,

Dewi

Rich,

Certainly looks like this travelling idea beats working for a living!  Just been reviewing your snaps from the comfort of my Hotel in Kilmarnock - lovely hotel but alas the scenery here is not quite as spectacular as that to which you have now become acustomed!?

Glad to see you've found some travelling companions and as for Linda - you make a lovely couple!!

Take it easy matey and look forward to hearing about the next leg of the advanture - HK here you come!

Matt

Rich,

Just wear them inside out baby

Hi guys. Thanks for all your messages - it's great to have some contact with friends and family back home. I've updated my postcard and added some photos of South Africa so check them out when you get chance.

Having a great time and will respond to you all as soon as I can find a cheap and reliable internet connection.

Billy - Thanks for the advice but what do I do if I run out?

Hello Richard your Mum is here using our computer and is now to give you a message,

Hi Rich,  Hope you are having a fantastic time.  I have been following your weather reports today it is getting better.  Talking about white sharks my worry is the ones "on land" not in the sea. 

Keep us posted,  Ps, Sorry we keep missing your telephone calls.   Paul is coming to us on Friday night for the weedend so will fleece him for a slap up meal!  Shame the Ivy's not local.

Thinking of you lots,

Love to you, Mum xxx

Hi Rich, I am missing Germany on your travel plan! :) Take care.
