Hi El...

Just looked through your shots of Equador...thanks for taking us there with great shots, and especially beautiful of the forests....loved the market shots of course too...and it just seems to get more and more exotic, yet simple...hmm....my imagination is stretched through your steps into the colourful tapestries of culture and simple livestyles...So practical, and real.... the life in the mountains hey... I know this will find you with a happy heart, somewhere there on the coast of Columbia....telling stories and loving every moment of of being together with JP....have fun......loveyouzillions...Mamaxxxx

You have reached the magic of far far away ma bella, these beautiful photos are truly what dreams are made of!! It's hard to even comprehend that these landscapes exist somewhere out there... such a big beautiful world hey!!

Yepa will be tangoing with papa on Thursday :) And then I'm helping mamma paint my bedroom in the blue house on Friday, us two with paintbrushes.... can only imagine... and we are painting it CREAM... yeah I know... mamma and cream??

Living juicy three days a week down at the fruit bar and still looking after the gorgeous boy on Thursday, we are having so much fun at the moment... lots of exploring and movement... and many many smiles!

Ma bella keep on enjoying this colourful journey.. Step by step... from sunset to sunrise!!

I love you xoxoxoxo

Hi darling, got your package will look at the photos when Hannah comes over for my birthday on Thursday evening, thanks so much ...i'm sure we will all be tangoing around !! how is your salsa going !!? xxxxx dad

Hi darling,

This may find you in Cusco....all safe and sound after travelling over more high belts of mountains...and into the exotic ruins that we can only dream of here....Bravo my darling for making it real....Have a great time hey...I hear the Cusco markets are just amazing...and then on to Machu Pichu.. I'm sure you are taking your time..in these places where the 'now' begs you to reach far into the past, with overwhelming sights before you... I imagine you climbing hundreds of steps...and being so high..Love you to the highest step to find you...Mamaxxxx

Hi Elle....all sounds soooooo amazing!! Am so so so so so happy for ya that your're out there seeing the wonderful sights of S.America!!! Will be joining you soon! Right, gonna be a quick mail as have to eat, dress (what to where in 36degree heat!??) and go see Prince in concert tonight! Should be fun!!

So-- I spoke with Flight Centre today and they have put a flight on hold for me till tomorrow (Sunday 4pm)- last seat on plane (apparently!) -

- Leaving London Gatwick Weds 29th September flying to Argentina
- Returning from RIO, Brazil Thurs 21st October
= 679.00 GBP (around 800 Euros).

I can get a bus from Buenos Aires to Rio or even fly if needed, was also thinking the same to get from Buenos Aires to where ever you are to start doing Patagonia etc.
I see from your message that you're thinking of extending your trip, doing Uraguay and then onto Brazil? Is that still on the cards? I don't mind doing Rio on my own for 2 days if you head off to Uraguay. Or I may still fly out of Buenos Aires (but Rio has more availability).

I know with the time zone difference that you prob. wont see this message in time for 4pm CET time Sunday 11th, but just in case, let me know what you think as it's an average price from what I see overall on the internet but will get much more pricey in week to come (UK summer hols etc).
Posted this messgae on your facebook also

Hope Bolivia is as breathtaking as I have heard it is! Am saving my pennies for our trip! Am sooooo excited!!!

Hugs and love xxxxxxxxxxxxx
