    Wales ain't such a bad place...
    If Wales get to the Final, we the English may as well avoid ever crossing that bridge again. It'll take 50 years for them to stop laughing at us.

        +1 . Its nice for them to have something to look forward to.

        Of course they would not show us the same courtesy.

            There's no such thing as a free pass.

            I did the Inca Trail in 2014. Highly recommend, but you need to get reasonably fit. (The quarry trail is supposed to be just a good, and a lot less busy).

            If you book with Intrepid, you can pay with Tesco vouchers - they often do a 4x deal.

                Unless there's more to do on Easter Island than there was in the late 1980's, I wouldn't stay more than a couple of days.

                I liked Chile, Peru, Ecuador and Argentina. Paraguay and Bolivia less so though La Paz was OK. If you can make it to the Galapagos, do.

                  And if you don't make it back, even better.
