A few final words after our 2018 Odyssey from soggy Southbank.
After such an ‘action’ packed, amazing journey blogging all the way, there’s actually little left to say. Seriously?! Except “let’s do it again!” And also thanks to Wild Earth Travel who offers exciting destinations, to Sundowners Overland, and especially to our wonderful travel manager Bev Edwards who pulls all our wacky plans together and makes them work.
Four weeks back home and we’ve just about cleared the travel debris. We are now left with the enjoyable task of sorting photos, putting together a few slide shows and basically ‘chewing our cud’ - it’s been a deliciously rich feast!
I came home with close to 6000 pix and who knows how many Lindsay has. And while I’m on numbers, would you believe our journey Beijing to Dublin was over 22,000 Km including 1300 on the high seas and 5500 in a camper van around Scotland and Ireland. The rest? A wonder-filled adventure.
Can’t wait to get back on the road again next year. Where to? North to the Arctic Circle travelling overland as much as we can.
In the meantime we have a date with a live volcano in the Pacific and we hope to get some outback dust in our hair. Life’s pretty good!
We start our Arctic expedition in Longyearbyen, Spitzbergen. In summer so maybe a little less ice!! But we’re takingthe woollies nevertheless.
