Dylan I've finally managed to work out how to get on to this site so sorry for the delay in sending you a message. Technology is wonderful when it all works. By the time you get this I would imagine you would have done the village project and managed the jungle. No little surprises along the way I hope, no adopting any Orangatanges. I read they stole your breakfast they obviously know how important it is to eat breakfast - ha ha. All is well at home and we miss you very much. Adrian started his new job and has been flat out, Alex got into the netball grandfinal, Pat went to fill in for cricket for you but they got washed out again. Animals are all doing well, Russel's been in a few fights so a bit scarred, jack's being his normal sookie self. I can't wait to see the photos and hear all about your experiences. We love you!!

I wish I could be there with you all, it seems like you're having a fantastic time. The food sounds like it's delicious, especially the prawns. Yummy! The school is so quiet at the moment with only years 7, 8 and 9. There's not much in the way of news, but we're all thinking of ya. Be safe and we'll see you in '09. Take care. Hey, Mr Anderton here.

Are you used to the climate now? Is it getting easier to work for longer? Where do you eat lunch? What do you do in your free time? And most importantly -- Have you seen oranguatangs living in the wild? I have realised that you must be close to halfway through your trip, please make sure that you take lots photos. Grandad was looking well when I left NZ last week. Rach is in Sorrento. Thinking of you Auntie Kathy Hey Twins

I have been wondering about your trip and looking forward to reading about your thoughts and experiences. Are you used to the climate now? Is it getting easier to work for longer? Where do you eat lunch? What do you do in your free time? And most importantly — Have you seen oranguatangs living in the wild?

I have realised that you must be close to halfway through your trip, please make sure that you take lots photos.

Grandad was looking well when I left NZ last week. Rach is in Sorrento.

How about an email or blog, just so we know your ok. Hannah's getting a bit twitchy. The dogs are all bald now and fortunately they all smell a bit better as well, except for Stink of course. Glenn and Jayden came over again on the weekend and had a look at the blogs. Bit disappointed that you hadn't got on and told us what your up to, so better get too it. Jayden thinks your a weiner of course, but what do you expect. Hannie wants to know what you think of your book. She's counting down all the days till you get back, on the fridge like we did before you left. Hoping the jungle trek went well and you didn't come across to many giant spiders and bats, or whatever they have there. We don't know, cos you won't get on and blog and tell us!!!. Ok, think I've banged on about blogging and emailing us enough, so get to the keyboard and we'll hear from you soon. Love Mum and all the little clarkes!! Hey Becky, Haven’t heard from you for ages.

The work at he primary school sounds interesting, are you building a new walkway or is more like repair work? How's the food going, are you being adventurous or sticking to the basics, did you try the horrible smelling fruit? Are you sleeping in your hammocks while you do the project or in accomodation? It sounds like you all got a good rest the day you arrived in Bario, was the flight wierd in the little plan or scary! Everyone here is fine, just the usual, 8 sessions of soccer each week for Anthony, Thomas is currently doing swimming lessons with school, Emily is hanging out for high school musical 3, I am flat out at work and Dad has had to go up to Balmoral to finish the house for the new people to move in. Nan called in - she sends her regards and also everyone at kokos does to and said she was very jealous as the photos looked amazing. Can you access you hotmail address - let me know either way.. as I have sent you an email Send me an email when you get a chance - Take care, everyone sends their regards,Mum Hi David, just logged on to see what new adventures had been posted.
