My first proper jungle experience and a nice one.
Best wishes for Richard, Alisa and their lovely daughter
Seriously she went out of her way to help with things that needed doing and fitted straight in. The kids loved her, she was great with everyone and could not have managed doing what we were doing at the time with out her ( organizing 1 Christmas fair at a school and a kids's play at another...)

Thanks for everything!
Great hosts!
