Hi all, I (Faye) thought I would add one blog entry seeing as Michelle has done most of them so far. We left Mexico on an old 70s American school bus to travel over the border to Belize. We had planned a night in Belize City before heading to Caye Caulker for a few days just off the coast of Belize. Belize is hugely different to Mexico due to a strong Caribbean and American influence. We found this far easier as everything (signs, menus etc) were all in English ...

Hola and Merry Christmas to all! Once again apologies for the long delay in update.. We have had one hellish week trying to get across Central America in time to spend Chrsitmas in Nicaragua! So I will catch you up from where we left off..So we left San Cristobal De Las Cases on Sunday 13th December and took a day trip to The Palenque ruins.

We then headed into the Kruger National Park for 2 nights where we were surprised with a beautiful luxury tent that had been booked for us by our tour. For the first time i...

From Vic Falls we headed into Botswana to visit The Okovango Delta. This is one of the things Faye has been most excited to do out of our whole trip so we got up nice and early, showered and packed our stuff for 3 days of bush camping and walking safaris. We were picked up in a huge open top lorry and realised 20 minutes into the drive that shorts and flip flops were not appropriate attire! Bloody freezing, we had to undo all our nicely packed sleeping bags and w...
