Still insanely jealous BTW... that definitely looks like a holiday I would want to do when I get better!!
It shouldn't slow down the album in theory.... the album code shouldn't access the photos until you actually try to view them. Maybe that single page is slowed down where the big photo is, is that what you mean? It's also saved in quite a high resolution and at quite a low compression, I could probably compress it a bit more and not lose too much detail.
I have to add...before you do do this holiday...it is bloody tiring. The first few days I wished I wasn't there. Trudging up to a height difference of 1500m in the first day in 30 C heat with a 20kg backpack is not fun. But you get stronger and in the end it is definitely worth it. Also, the weather wasn't always that good, some days it rained and poured and the fog was so bad we couldn't see more than 10...I'll have to post some foggy shots

ah here we go...to anyone interested, to save me wearing my keyboard out:

If you read the guy's log of his journey, that's almost exactly what we did.
