I finally got around to transferring my photos off my camera so here's one of me before the touch club EOS Gangsta themed party at a pool hall in Glenelg.  Looking the part?  I did win Best Dressed so it must have been OK!
Getting right into my count down to departure now - only 3 weeks left!  I have most things organised.  Still a few things to buy, but it's fun to spread it out over a few weeks as I don't normally spend much money.  My friend from Norway phoned me a couple of days ago to tell me that she is still alive and willing to host me for 10 days in August.  Phew.  I hadn't heard from her in months and was beginning to worry.  Hostel bookings have been made for Mexico City and Santiago now.  The rest we'll play by ear.  BV girl and I will be making things up as we go along.  After the Inca Trail Trek we're heading off to Bolivia for a while, then back across to the coast and head up to Isla de la plata for some scuba action - hopefully see some whales!  Then back through Quito to the Amazon, hiking up a volcano and rafting.  Rainforests aren't my favourite place - too many creepy crawlies in humid environs for my liking.  But it'll be amazing so definitely can't go past it.  I'll just have to hope I don't meet anything too creepy...
I am going to be starting up a new blog for my trip.  I like to keep things separate, a new blog for a new chapter and all that...  Keep ya posted on the address!
