Hola it's LauraAfter leaving the group in La Paz and managing to get to Copacabana it was time for us to make it alone through Peru. We booked a bus to get us to our first destination of Puno. It was all fairly straight forward although it was a bit odd that we had to get on three mini buses just to get to our bus (one of which was only a 3…
Hello and welcome to Laura and Lily's travel blog. We are going on a trip taking us across the world and covering three continents (Asia, Australasia & South America) in just over three months.
As graduates of Geography we felt it was about time we saw the world that we have studied at uni for the past three years. We hope that you enjoy reading our blogs as much as we enjoy experiencing them. xx

Great to see your pictures of Sydney - it looks as if you had some of the same weather that we had in February - very wet! isn't the opera house wonderful?
South America sounds very adventurous - and totally different from the other places you've been. looking forward to hearing more about it. Love Deb & Richard

Looking forward v much to the first South American blog and of course the photos to accompany the text. Occasionally it's nice to see a title on some photos especially where Ican then tell where you are. The "unnamed thumbnail" pictures either don't contain a thumbnail, or I know whose thumbnail it is. Joint 4th in the quiz last night. xxx

Hola Laura. While you are in the desert we have woken up to snow this morning!! 10 man Charlton beat Plymouth away 2-1 yesterday. Weaver was sent off in the first 3 mins. We are intrigued about the salt hotel. Lots of love. xxxx

Hello Lily and Laura! Just back from Istanbul. Had a great time- really good shopping and yummy food. Weather was really nice for the first two days and we didn't have any rain! Back to uni soon. Hope you're enjoying S. America- spotted any guniea pig on the menus yet? xxxxxxx

Yes, saw Em at the Society Rooms quiz on Monday: mum and me had debated whether to put "FA Cup" down as the answer to that question (see below) but as it was the wipeout round we weren't entirely sure and so left it out: otherwise we could have got the bonus points - even so it wouldn't have been enough to win the quiz. Better luck next time. Oh, how's South America?

Hey girls, the pictures of sydney are awesome, I can't wait to go myself now! I especially like the before and after poncho shots! I've just got back from sunny Madrid and tonight I headed to the pub quiz! Saw ur mum and dad lau:) We came bout 16th or something, but would have been second if we hadn't have got one wrong on the wipe out round! Laura you'll be pleased to know I got the question right about which sporting award was stolen on sep 11th 1985 - the fa cup! I was proud of that answer! lots and lots of love xxxxxxxxxxxx

You are doing very well in keeping us informed of your experiences so promptly as you go from place to place: and already you are both in South America so will be interested to hear about your new adventures there. Heathrow T5 still causing much amusement to the travelling public. xx
