hi all Am currently in Puerto Vallarta. I've been dropped back in to civilisation for the weekend, as i usually stay an hour south of the city just outside La Cruz de Lorreto and the camp i'm staying at is about about 4km away. The camp has no running water or electricity so a shower involves a bucket of water from the well (the toilet is along the same lines!!) We were really lucky on the 1st night of patrolling, as we saw a turtle finding a spot to lay he...

Was a really relaxing way to spend my time rather than just laying by the pool speak soon kaf xx

Hi Everyone Well this will be my last card from NZ, as i'm back on the Magic bus tomorrow for the last time before i get on a plane Wednesday. I'm currently in Paihia in the Bay of Islands where it's really hot and sunny so plenty of time to relax on the beach and watch the world go by. I've really enjoyed my time here, and i'm already missing the fantastic people of Kaiapoi who looked after me so very well - a very big thank you to all xxxx Next ...
