Back to School
Hola,
Today was my first day back at school for 9 years, and my first lesson was Spanish, 4 hours of Spanish. I realise that it would have been more logical to study spanish at the start of this trip, but i've never been a conventional type of guy - Remember who woke up in a puddle in the driest place on earth?
Yo tengo another 4 houros of spanisho eacho morningo foro the nexto 4 dayos, and will ci how it goes, I will also bolster this by hanging around in baros and talking to the locals, purely as homeworko you comprendo?
I have been asked what my plans are from here on in by a few people so here goes....
I need to get back to Santiago de Chile by 30th November, from where I will fly to Easter Island to kick the famous stone statues to see if they fall over etc, expect to see photos of me doing so on the website soon.
From there I will fly to Tahiti to establish exactly why Captain Blythes men mutaniered when they were asked to leave...and then on to Sydney in Australia ready to show the Aussies how to drink properly in time for Christmas and New Year.
I then plan to spend a year travelling and working in Australia, repairing my finances and contemplating my next move.
Depending on the Efficiency of the FBI and Interpol the above plans may change at any time or as and when circumstances dictate, rest assured you will be kept informed unless you request otherwise.
Dickie Alto, my erstwhile travel partner left Equador yesterday bound for Argentina (sniff), and left me with his glass mounted display of Amazonian Insects, which he thoughtfully left under my pillow! I suspect more because he couldn't be arsed carrying it all around south America.
I shall miss his cheap haircutting, chair falling , head banging, poor spanish speaking, pizza paving, public school, legal speaking mishaps - especially when I am detained on entry to Australia for importing endangered species.
Kirsten can you arrange to arrest me before I get arrested for real?
(Cheers Ritch - hope you can reach the food there - if not the stakes are too high!)
Thats all folks, remeber to tell me how your getting on if you can be bothered
Mi Vida es Muy Bueno
Muchos besos para la chicas
Hasta la vista
