Will update you all on my WA trip once I get a good connection ...am in Easter Island at the mo (7th June)...so connection is a tad slow! Pics are uptodate on site so thats the important thing, and I'm well and still having a fantablous time. So much to say, gonna bore you all senseless when I get back!
Bye for now....love me xxx
It's time to head off on my epic adventure of a lifetime...
to wander the great wall, accidentally knock down a few terracotta warriors, admire spectacular sunsets over ruins of the Khmer Empire; visit the land of the smiles, enduring Far Eastern delicacies "we don't serve cat, dog rat or worm" tasty; discover paradise where rainforest meets the barrier reef, get chased by a cassowary(try not to look them in the eye or let them smell my fear!), scuba with the whale sharks…

Hi Vic
I noticed you hadn't any messages on board since Jun 8th so thought I'd post one! I'm looking forward to seeing the photos of the Andes and Peru, as well as Easter Island. Hope the Galapagos Islands are all they're cracked up to be and that you're relaxing a little more. When you come home, I think a lot of pampering and remedial treatment on bones, joints, muscles etc is in order! Love you lots. Mum XXX

Just been looking at your latest pics which all look amazing. You are certainly looking well on it girl. You must have a magic rucksack because I haven't seen you in the same outfit twice!
