At this point (we, the parents) take over Angus blog, as the Young Explorers head off to the jungle without mobile phones and computers; and in the remote region of the Manu National Park they will be exploring, modern technology is probably of little use any way!
After a very busy day yesterday packing and repacking, tweaking his kit to get it to the required weight of no more than 17kg (this required him to make the very difficult decision to leave his binoculars at home). The pictures show him in his travel outfit (yes, they fly in their rubber boots as they are too big to fit in the packing).
After a hearty Roast Lunch, later followed by an English Afternoon Tea, Angus was at last ready to set off into the unknown (feeling both nervousness and excitement).
