I wonder what the other half would say.. ;) I could try and persuade him that it would make a nice birthday present.

Nice, that would definately be an experience.

Just withhold the expected companion favours for a month & you will find he would organise your ticket express post..lol

How much do you think real total costings would be for us?

Felipe Cantera runs these collecting trips. This trip has been organised by Ed Burress if it's the one I think it is. If only we were allowed to keep gymnos in Australia.

If only we were allowed to bring home what we could collect. *sigh*

I should dig up the photos (old school film) of our trip to South America. My other half went "fishing" one day in Bolivia with the local guides and we ate catfish for dinner that night and something called a Pacu - its a vegetarian relative of pirhana - huge, at least 70 -80 cm long.

I'm sure there would be some way to bring home legal imports, such as apistogramma. Might have to go through South East Asia to do it though. I'm seriously thinking about a trip to Peru.

I'm sure that's what Chappel Corby (spelling?) thought.. and she's having a great holiday!! :lol:

It would be a fascinating trip. PLEASE make sure you take extra digital storage for your camera so you can share big-time if you go. Do it!! :wink:
