Boat

I had dreams of hoofing around the lagoon at break neck speeds in a cool white speed boat, but instead when we turned up, we got this hunk of scrap:

It had a 6 hp engine which barely moved us, but still we had a wicked day cruising around the islands, stopping to snorkel, then mooring by a deserted beach and swimming around for a while, chasing sting rays etc.

Hope you are all insanely jealous and that's why nobody writes comments on the blog anymore. Its not like any of you have important jobs to do or anything. This blog is a two way thing you know! This excludes Harry, and Viv. Mom, dad, i know you are moving house this week but thats no excuse! Ruth, John being on holiday in France is also no excuse, I hope you are ashamed of yourselves.

OK - you're right. We are insanely jealous. But we love you both tons, and have to say that we are really enjoying the blog - problem is that our lives seem so dull by comparison that it feels like there's not a lot to tell you guys... Loved the dolphin photo

Yes, as Deb and Steve said, it's true. We are insanely jealous. We probably have similar temperatures to you at the moment (35c in Bristol) but instead of boating, snorkeling and kissing dolphins we're stuck in the bloody office!

Ruth would like to comment but she is suffering from post-traumatic stress after facing her fears in the "Tunnel of Darkness" in Annecy. It's safe to say she still fears the tunnel.

We're all still here, still reading about your adventures...but it's hard to find things to say that may compare or be of interest!?

Although Sam, you always complain that British summers are too cold, well it's roasting here now!

Amelie sends a big kiss to Mad Aunty Sam and likes the picture of Chris with a flower in his hair.

Hi both of you lucky, lucky people. Have followed your trip with deep envy - don't even know why I've never sent any comments! Probably the jealousy took over !!!!! Saw Matt & Sue at the start of the house move on one of the hottest days of the year. At least you have the heat without the work. Continue to enjoy the wonderful experiences - love Vicky (H)
