Rich,
HAPPY EASTER!!!!!!!!!
Dad.

Bernie,

Luckily, I was sitting next to a travel friend from Zurich when I read your message! He thought it was quite funny that you were not jealous of my face! He also translated this for me...

Ich bin auch nicht eifersuechtig auf sein gesicht ;) (das geschriebene uebersetze ich aber besser nicht...) liebe gruess nach deutschland auch von mir!!!!

I have no idea what this means but I hope it is hugely offensive!

Bye for now,

Kaiser Rich

Hi richard, wie gehts?

i hope you can find someone to translate this for you if not then tuff luck.
well mate i'm glad your having a good time and just hope you don't get stabbed or mugged.
me and lena are planing to come over some time in summer or early autumn maybe we could get together then.
have a great time and don't die

der HOFMEISTER

warum nicht. hoffmeister is a very good username. i am rather jealous. i dont know what to write except enjoy yourself which your already doing, it looks mental. take it easy compadre and remember. theres no i in team, but theres at least one in oscillation.

take it easy my friend and enjoy brathil and arentina. also like pablo said get yourself in one of them barrels, but fill it a little with cyanide, that way you get the aromas going and really enjoy the ride.

peace out and good luck my young padawan

hi richard i hope every thing is ok where you are and you are enjoying the fantastic sights you have seen and are about to in the next few weeks we have seen your pictures that you have sent on your travel journal keep them coming look after yourself and take care LFC

Hi Rich,
I have been a bit busy over the past few weeks, catching up at work and going to Thanet every weekend to start sorting things out. That's where I am right now (Sunday 9th, 10am GMT), but I will be back home at 4pm for the big one!!! I have seen all your pics and they look great. Having viewed them a couple of times I thing Iguaza Falls from the Brazilian side looks marginally better than from Argentina. Isla Grande looked very good too. A far cry from the M3 on a Monday morning!
Glad that you seem to be really enjoying your journey so far. Keep the pics coming and remember as Nanna said, "keep your hands in your pockets".
Cheers for now!
Dad.

Hi, it all looks absolutely amazing! Glad you're having a wonderful time. Take care xx

Uncle Jonny, rather than concealing, I am forming a one man wall in an attempt to avoid the inevitable stray shots that occasionally fly over from the Maracana.
