Hi Rick and Dolly, I can’t believe it is all over for you two! It doesn’t seem that long since we have met! And yet, you are going home! I hope you had the time of your life during this trip!
I hope we will keep in touch, and you know where to follow our adventures.
Big hug and tell them hello there in Europ from us!

Rick and Dolly, I know it has been over a year since your travels but blogs and videos live on.
Planning a trip to Machu Picchu I came across you excellent videos and I think I watched everyone, even the drunken football one! I love your sense of humor and adventurous spirit.
Rick you are a very wise man to marry that Dolly she is a keeper.
Thanks,
Brian

Dear Rick and Dolly, I would like to thank you very very much! It was because of you that I knew about Antarctic Dream! It was a boring evening and I was on Internet and I didn’t know what to search or what to do…when suddenly I saw your video of Antarctica and I felt in love with it! I saw it a lot lot of times….and finally I decided. Last november I joint Antarctic Dream with my husband and it was the most exiting exoperience we’ve ever had. It didn’t seem to be on earth…it is really another world. Really really thanks for making us possible to see such a great place!! With my best regards from Italy Camilla
