Out from groaning in my tent.

Hi all

I am finally out of my tent and I have to say that I was sick for two and a half days with a shocking fever, but I am all better now and I am getting to be part of the tour. It is good to be back in society.

Not much has happened in the last few days. We have driven in Doris. That is it. No more, no less, just driven in Doris. For 2.5 days - travel. It has been boring, but Brazil is the fifth largest country in the world and we are going through the widest part.

Well that is it really, ummm write soon

Glen

hi. so glad you are back on planet earth. actually it's a relief to know you are ok now. yes, that's the mum coming out in me.
we are all good, today is blakey boy's 2nd birthday, and he's lovin it. he loved opening the presents. however now he opens anything that is covered in paper.
brock is going well, so far everything is going well at school. he is in a split year 2/3 class, but seems to deal with that. the teacher said he is a very well adjusted young boy, and he is very clever. she said that every year you get attached to a student, and brock was the one. she said that she will be exremely disappointed when he goes. whether she says that to all the mum's, i don't really care, the fact is that she said it!!
Matt is working hard, but other than that he is fine. it was his birthday last week a nd brock nd i made a treasure hunt for his present. we woke him at 6.ooam and gave him this huge book we made with lots of clues. the book lead him all over the house and in between that there were presents hiden. he was quite thrilled by this, and says that it is the best birthday he's ever had, even though he grumbled about getting up at 6.oo. mind you it took an hour to go through the treasure hunt and find all the presents.
me - well i'm going ok. i've been bitten another 2 times by white tail spiders. Fortunately it hasn't made me sick, though lately i have the biggest craving for flies. i just can't eat enough!! so needless to say, i freak out at spiders at the moment, even if they are only millimetres big. they leave a nasty scar. once the poison gets in, it eats at the skin, then it starts eating into the skin, and you end up with big holes in your body. nice eh. give me a tranchular any day!!
but other than my friends biting me, i'm ok. still going through legal stuff, but i have all the faith in martin. there are more court hearings, but they don't scare me as much now.
now that i'm not working, i might start studying, thinking about becomeing a lawyer. they make millions. only joking, i'm not "strong" enough for that. I'd burst into tears to often!!
well i've managed to write another novel. but i miss you both so much and i can't wait to see you.
talk soon.

Hi Glen and Sandra, wow, you really have an exciting blog. I love your Costa Rica photos too. I have been dying to get to Costa Rica ever since I read about it at Costa Rica HQ. Sounds like you are traveling all over! Have a great time, and sorry you were sick, Glen.
