Reiziger 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!
Reiziger 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!

Today was a wired day, our hotel was 16 km away but we decided to only walk 12 so we had to get a taxi the last 4 km. But tomorrow we are getting a taxi back to where we leftMeer informatie
Reiziger 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

Today’s Spanish word of the day is BonitoMeer informatie
Reiziger 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 😜🤣🫣
Reiziger Go Eloise! So very excited for you and oh so very proud of you ❤️
Have fun [JJ]
Such an amazing adventure awaits! We are so excited for you and look forward to following along with your journey on this trail. Sending all our love and prayers, Nonno and Nonna [Elisabeth S]
