day 2 & 3

ok, where to start. Rio was cool if not scary, we landed very very early in the morning and got driven to what looked like the favelas but turned out to be a pretty sweet hostel
Did Ipanima and Copacobana the next morning got burnt within hours even through the clouds.

Met some cool kids who i said i mention, Kate and Laura was great to meet you both and good luck with the rest of your travels. look us up if you get bored sunning in Copacobana.

bumped in the one and only David Dowling, who told us how he shot down a helecopter over Rio the night before, i thought he was lying until i saw the news the next day. NICE ONE DAVIE


Sau Paulo was a blurr, we arrived checked into a formula 1 hotel (cos we had to) and walked for hours around trying to find a party(exactly what the guide books say not to do. but nothing. not a sausage. Was up and at em this morning with a 5am flight to Lima where i write this from now. found a champion hostel in the best district, really cheap, very clean and oddly but satisifingly served us Coca leaves with our breakfast. not that i could taste it by this time...

A big thanks and hello to Raul an Ximon who mark a I sat next to on the plane (respectivly). Raul thanks for the advice. Call us for a beer boys.l

3 days to the off!!!

Lloyd (G) & James (T) pit them selves against india in this epic dash across the entire length of country. taking in Jungle, coast lines, cities and the foothills of the Himalayas!! what have they got themselves into here? With a NO bribe policy and an ever so mild disregard for driving enforcement this adventure is going to be a learning curve and smiling nicely while nodding enthusiastically. We will be taking on all India has to offer, in return we'll be taking Cricket and gin and tonic. this have never failed an englishman and we wont be letting the side down on this occasion!

Will they come back?
