The day after

Hi
Today we are cleaning up the truck and getting it ready for the long trip back to BA. Tomorrow we travel to Chilecito through the Andes on dirt tracks and some tarmac. We will be traveling in the convoy for about 10 to 12 hours. Two more nights in the bivouac and then we are booked in hotels til we come home. Can't wait to have a hot shower every day and a bed to sleep in.

Thank you again for all your support it means a lot to us!!

The people here have been wonderful and it will be sad to leave them. We are wishing Darren Skilton and his driver Sue Mead all the best and hoping they cross the finish in BA.

  2. It's been great following your progress. Watching the nightly Dakar Rally program on television has given some idea of the conditions which look brutal. One can understand why it is very difficult to finish, let alone win.
