Farewell...next stop Rio!

Thanks to Mum, Nan and Scott for depositing me at the airport safe and sound. It was a good day to be leaving England for sunnier climbs as it was cold and raining. A far cry from Rio fingers crossed!


Me and my ridiculously heavy bag outside Heathrow's Terminal 5.

Hey mate,

How glad are you that I talked you into removing some of the things you wanted to pack!!!
The amount of things you wanted to take was unreal and definatley not ideal for backpacking!!!
Hope you are having a good time in Rio, put some pics on when you can preferably showing the sunshine as all it has done here is rain, thunder and lighten!!
Dave is slighty worried as the USA coach has resigned and he thinks he may be on his way to Villa-he's not happy!!!
Take care, lots of love n stuff
Love Linz, Dave & Baby Joey xxx

Hi Guys, Thanks for all your messages. Rio is mind blowing, so many contrasts. Ipanema is really cool, huge waves and tiny bikinis. Weather has not been too good though the last couple of days, it is winter here though! A bunch of us went to the Maracana stadium today. Absolutely awesome! Fluminense beat Internacional 3-0. It was a good game but the atmosphere was truly something special and it was nowhere near full to capacity. I promise to upload some pictures soon. Take care. X

Kelly said...

OMG Lee that sounds amazing, shame about the weather but you don't want it too hot. Be careful with those tiny bikinis you don't want them rubing round your bits

Take care
Kelly, Ady and Daisy

Hi Lee,

How's it going boo? Looks like your having a fab time, missing you already haha.
Your pics are great and making me soooo jealous and wishing I was there, but I don't think your mum would allow it.....mind you I could say i've gone shopping or something like that,it would cover my tracks eh haha.(Nah she would kill me!!!!)
Hope the weather has picked up for you and your still enjoying the trekking and the views. Keep posting the pics and keep us updated okay.
You take care and be safe....
Lots of Love, Hugs and Kisses Sandra x x x

Hi Lee

Just to let you know that Dani, Raven & I are following your updates closely (Solo can't be bothered, as it doesn't involve kicking, throwing or hitting a ball). Sounds like a great trip so far - glad you liked the motorscooter trip - photos look brill.

p.s. Leicester are definitely looking like relegation certainties with only 1 from 4, while The Mighty Rams are powering-up into 15th with a huge 4 points. COYR.
