Had a long wait at Heathrow, special thanks to Aileen's hubby Gordon who met us in departures and brought us a few drinks (little does he know how much Aileen spent when he left!)

Met up with the rest of the Action Challenge squad, 15 people in total including Simon the trekking leader, same guy we used in Kili.

Arrived in Lima after one of the most horrendous flights ever. Iberia are not my chosen airline from here on in! Pictures on the inflight meal can be seen on the blog suffice to say I was offered either pasta or burger and I am not sure which one I actually got!

Graeme spent most of the flight with his legs wrapped around his neck. He removed his boots for more comfort only to be introduced to Peruvian urine when he went to the loo. Soaking socks.

(Another flight over. And despite the wet socks, Graeme is still sporting the same t-shirt he was pictured in yesterday.)


Aileen had a very memorable flight. The Steward took a real fancy to Aileen's new very expensive watch (£15) remarking "I like your colourful cock!". Obviously he didn't overhear Aileen when she was telling everyone that she got a bush (hair) cut every 6 weeks.

Ellen thought that she was in with a real chance with the steward however it turns out the he only had eyes for our Graeme. However Ellen didn't miss out. When we arrived in Lima, she was singled out for 'personal' frisking at security. Rubber gloves will never feel the same again.

Couple of hours wait now before we board the 4rd flight, to Cusco. Numerous debates about what time it is both here and at home.
