Well, We arrived at Puerto montt yesterday afternoon early and after a bus trip to Puerto Varas quickly settled into the best hotel on this trip by far with pool,spa,games room and heaps of different living and lounging areas and my room overlooks a graet lake that is massive. The town has a very european look thanks to the German settlers.…

Arrived in Santiago yesterday and finally, a clean modern city not unlike Melbourne. Back to being able to flush toilet paper and feeling very civilised here! Bus leaves in 30 minutes to take …

Yes it has been a while since my last blog but I have been in the Jungle (no reception) and some hotels are also without WiFi and the pace has been generally fast with little time to sit down …

Hi Dave,
HAPPY BIRTHDAY. Now you are an old 50 yr old. Welcome to the club. Hope you have some celebrations today.
When are you back in Melbourne?????
Speak soon.

Hi Dave,
Interesting reading your entries. You will be exhausted when you get home! Which incidentally is sometime next week I think. I went to the photos tab and it says that you have all your photos uploaded there. I can't access anything as all it has is that one sentence you put in and no info on how to look at the photos. Am I doing something wrong? Has anyone else been able to look at them? If so, tell me how to do it.

Hi Dave,
Looks like you are going to some great places. Will be very interested to see all the photos when you get back. So far have seen 2 photos that you have posted. Looks terrific. Have you made any friends along the way (apart from just being sociable with your group!!) What is the weather like? Obviously it was cold where the snow was, but generally what sort of weather are you experiencing? Hopefully you have been able to eat all the local food and water and not getting sick from guinea pig! Sounds disgusting! Look forward to your next entry.

Hi Dave,
Great idea for the blog, although we rated your entry at only 1 star.....not much info coming from you. So far you went to the hotel and then had a walk and then went on a cruise and drank beer all day!!! Must be more to South America than this! You have been there nearly 2 weeks and only 2 tiny entries. Where are all the photos? What else have you done? Assume it is more than NOTHING. Get to a computer and start writing! If we can't be there, at least make us jealous. Waiting to hear from you, as is the rest of the fam........get cracking boy!

Hey Davo, good to hear the trip is progressing well. Not too many entries though?! When are you going to post some pictures of your WC (not your toilet). Plans for your big bash are progressing well. Need to talk asap when you return. Keep these threads coming.

Glad to see you are safely in B.A. Sorry i didn't get to wish you well prior to the trip. Looks like you are going to have a great time. Message blog is great and will be waiting for further updates and photos. Please email me your credit card details so we can organise your 50th party for when you return.

Hi Dave,
Found out how to do this. You click on the msg board tab and then follow the prompts. So tell the others this is how you do it.
