Wonderful pictures from your epic adventure, Rob!
Thanks to everyone for the comments and likes as we have travelled, and after our return too. Many of you simply watched what we were up to and have made comments to us when we chatted with you in the following weeks. We really enjoyed doing this blog, choosing the photos from the phone and discussing what we'd tell you about each day. It was an amazing trip filled with visual delights and wonderful experiences. We are so lucky to have seen and done what this trip gave to us. Truly awesome.
