It's funny how similar Mexico City is to Portsmouth; remarkably similar landscape, inhabitants, weather... No, wait... This is Portsmouth, not Mexico City. We had to come back because a volcano in Iceland decided that after 200 years it fancied blowing its top. Cracking. Some say it's Mother Nature taking matters into her own hands and reducing everyone's carbon footprint for them, others that it's time that Northern Europe got a bit of natural fertilisation from all this wonderful ash... Who knows? But I really wish it had waited just 24 more hours, and would like to make it clear that this volcano won't be getting a Christmas card from us.
We've been told to head back to the airport tomorrow morning, but as Volcanos Spoilingus Holidayus is still erupting, it's not looking likely, so we'll probably be taking in some of Pompey's famous tourist attractions for the next few days instead. Mayans Schmayans!
Hopefully the next update will be from Mexico!
