Hi R and K, Alastair and I are loving your photos and commentary. St Petersburg pics great, and we noted the sun shone once or twice. Dubai looks great too. Wet and humid here in dull old Aukcland.

Thanks Lew and Tracey, Happy New Year, sorry to hear it was wet up North. Our last night in Dubai tonight and then off to the Mountain.

Fantastic, great writing and great photos. Really enjoying your blogs. Keep it up.

Hello dear ones. Well, we back in communication again. Came back from a very wet Northland 2 days early. Merry Chrisitmas and a very happy New Year AND a big birthday wish! Just read all your new blogs and looked thru your photos. What an amazing place Russia is, stunning! Hope you two are pacing yourselves, not even 1/2 way thru and you've had huge adventures! Well done, fab blog, missing you heaps xxxxxxxx

Great to hear from you Robert. I certainly have not forgotten about the hunt and look forward to the chance to get out with you two again. We had a good Christmas here, but missing everyone at home. I hope you had a good trip North and have a veryHappy New Year
