ViaggiatoreHi Jennie & Leigh - I was having trouble keeping two travel logs - most people are following my posts on WhatsApp so I continued with just that. I posted a WhatsApp message to you but I assume you are not active. If you want to see what I’ve been doing with photos I’ll provide the group link (no travel map unfortunately - only Penguins does that…!)
