Hi Graeme, sounds like you are having a great time. Watch out for the natives especially the Blow Pipes.

pics from Rio carnival made me laugh..........:-).....how you doing !! Hope your travels go well today to the Galapogas. Did you know the owner of Reading FC....John Majeski owns the major hotel in the Galapogas Islands...sure its worth a shout for a discount at the local YMCA !!

Hi Tina and Ken, pleased you like the photos, I have added you to the auto notification by e-mail when I do a new report .....bad luck there's no escape now ;o)

Hi Mattie, Yes trying not to take out any of the locals but there's still one night left so you never know ;o)

Hi Grae, sounds like you're having a great time, the photos are fantastic, look forward to seeing more soon. Tina & Ken
