Since moving to the UK and living through lockdown we often look back over the daily diary entries the girls wrote and the blog to remember our trip and one day we asked them some questions. 

Looking back over photos it is incredible to see how young the girls were on our trip. We try to talk about our adventures as much as we can to keep the memories alive. They were so brilliant at adapting to all the varied experiences, it is something we shared as a family and is a time we look back on with so much happiness.
