Hi Kathy and Noble bike crew :-) keeping up to date as often as I can, all I can say is wow! -- what an adventure.  Please be carefull and know that once you reach the U.S. you will be able to make up any lost time -- safety needs to be your priority now. 

Andy Kuiper :-)

p.s. as for Sean's 'accident' with the llama: knowing you were all hungry, and aware of Sean's penchant for exotic food, that llama is dam lucky to still be alive <!-- s:P --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_razz.gif" alt="Razz" title="Razz" /><!-- s:P -->
