Voyageur Hi Eloise! Libby and I have just been catching up on your travels! It looks like such beautiful countryside to be walking through. I wish we were joining you for some of it!
Voyageur I really wanted to see a photo of the giant bees (real bumble bees!), but I couldn’t see one. Could be challenging to get a picture of one, but can you try? They look like teddy bear bees to me. So fluffy!

Voyageur Buenos Dias Eloise 🥰🤗 sorry to hear it was so hot and not great to walk in. Sounds like you all made the right choice getting a taxi for the last bit. Hopefully tomorrow is a bit more pleasant weather for walking. The signs on the trail really are beautiful as is everything I can see in the pictures so far. Hope you are now cool and having a restful time before the next leg. Lots of love x

Voyageur Bonito post Eloise! I am amazed by how green everything is ❤️ That picture of the bog is beautiful and has stunning detail. What do you think makes the orange juice amazing? Is is because they don't sneak ginger and turmeric in it like your mum does 😜🤣🫣

Have fun [JJ]
