african roads and twins

the last 2 years have been a little different, you see the african roads must have split linda's eggs and my good swimmers fertilized both and so we had twins - see the twins blog

however having said that - the warthog has undergone a view mods to deal with the logistic of 4 people and over the next while i will be blogging about overlanding with twins and especially our upcoming trip to the central kalahari in june 2010

Home sweet home

Day33-13jan-468km-Home

We arrived home on sunday afternoon to mixed emotions. We had returned home after 11000km odd solo trip around southern and east africa and had an awesome time. We are busy integrating back in cape town life with great difficulty and i am longing for our next trip.

For those of you map geeks - the garmin routes of our entire trip are transferred to a google map which i have just finished and can be found here

The photos 1845 are almost finished being sorted (75%) and should be up shortly, but the last 2 days of work hit me and i am now tired.

Till later, Brad.
