Godspeed on your journey. You'll need it!Scary Mc said:I've been away fro a few days, sorry. I am well aware that 2-months Cairo to Cape Town is unrealistically ambitious, but that is the time that I have. We'll see how far I make it.
I was in Mongolia for a month last summer and in the name of saving space and reducing hassle I just took a ball cap. Stupid move! By the end of the month on horseback my ears and lips were not a pretty sight to behold. I vowed after that trip to always travel with a wide brimmed hat. Always.
I appreciate everyones thoughts and opinions and will be taking a felt I'm fond of with the knowledge it might be lost along the way. A ball cap and a crushable Tilley will also be in my pack.
I leave Jan. 5th and Need to be in Cape Town no later that March 5th. Wish me luck.
