Claire Hey John Boy!!! Just been catching up on your blog. As always it sounds fantastic, what an adventure you've been on!! However I am sure the little rock is now calling and we are all looking forward to seeing you back home next week. I bumped into Mark the other day and he is certainly looking forward to your return. We will definitely have to catch up soon after you are back. I can't believe it is that time already. Have you been to Vegas yet? It is a great place and I am sure you will have lots of fun there. Anyway had better go and get on with really exciting things like house work!!!!!! . See you soon, Claire x

Celia Hi John! Hope your having a groovy time. Just to say hi really. You've sooo many photos I don't have time to look at them all (exams and all that jazz) but the ones I saw were very awesome! Looks like your having a super cool time, oh, and I loved the photo of the machine with the 'wait til the balls drop' sign. Tres amusant! Have fun, take care, Celia xxx
