catharine pearce ive loved reading these the last few months! cant wait to see you x x x

Suzi Dillon sounds amazing! this so makes me want to visit Peru. have a great time in Costa Rica!

Juliet Campling What great experiences! Love Mum

freddypops Belated catch-up with reports! Gobsmacked! Can't imagine how much you've done, met the challenge, and survived! (And how do you find the time for your graphic reports?) Costa Rica, and then return home: will you be ready for re-entry? I guess that Post-traumatic Stress Debriefing counsellors (with medical qualifications) will be available! L&BW.

Angela Campling What a good idea to theme it in this way - 'Metros of the World' is a really good essay - publish in the National Geographic? Grangie and Gramps enjoyed it. Lots of luck and love x

Joe Thank you, Briony came up with many of the best lines, hope all well x

Suzi Dillon I like this account! Very interesting.

Angela Campling Sounds tiring! - full marks for stamina! Brilliantly impressive! Much love, Grangie & Marcus x

Sam Mason can't believe you chose a tour over the Champions League final. Disgraceful :P

Rachel Campling Great to catch up with you...I loved Iguazu...La Paz sounds fab...you've long left Peru now and are in CR but good to fill in the gaps! lots of love xxx

James Campling Wow, it all sounds incredible; especially the food! Glad to hear from you, James, Hannah, Marcus and Rae

Rob Gooding Top stuff mate! S. America was the bit I was waiting for, its sounding pretty good! Have a quality time at Iguazu and doing the Inca trail! Rob

Rachel Campling Can I please have a handmade snakes and ladders board for Christmas?
