Liesl OMG - I'm loving your blog. It's great to be able to keep up with your adventures in far far away land. Oh how i miss thee. Your theatre experiences sound horrific - I still don't know how anyone can do that. Not for the faint hearted they say (finger points at Liesl!!) I hope you have a marvellous time. I will keep dropping you messages and reading your blogs. Take millions of pictures! Can't wait to hear about it all in person when you get back. Love you long time xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
