Final Destination
No we’ve not finished the trip quite yet but as I said were almost there with one continent. Our Carnet de Passage (“vehicle passport”) runs out in a month so this means today my Mum is waiting for a very special delivery that means…
Deception
So after a few days of missdirection we’ve arrived home for a visit. Suprising Sister, Mother, Father and Grandmother in the process as we didn’t tell many people. So if you feel the need to contact us, we’re back for…
Total Recall
Yes it was the same film. Worth a watch, not really. So today we went shopping and also to see a film. What we watched is a remake of the Arnie fest with the popping eyes. Would it have been…
Cape Fear
They thought we’d never leave…….Almost a week of madness and generosity staying at Des and Hennie’s. We’ve got a refurbished transfer box with a new sleeved Intermediate shaft. I know the Land Rover fans reading this will be jealous! Its…
Room With A View
So here we are in Cape Town having spent a night with the Langebaan Sunset team who drove to their new home a year or so ago all the way from the UK. Nick and Vicki looked after us very well…
Catwoman
Now i’m a bit partial to a rubber dress or catsuit but this has to be one of the worst movies ever. Not only is the actress in question,,,,, (literally),,,STOP….Theres no point in saying any more. She was better in…
The Waterboy
More waterfalls and more tenuous links to dodgy films….Yes we could smell the flowers. Quite nice actually. They also follow the sun so if you get on the right side of them they are quite bright as you can see.…
Momento
A few photos from the last few days.
Austin Powers
Last few days we were at Augrabies Falls another SAN park but to see the Falls strangely and not the animals (we’ve seen them). Now were are at Springbok and leaving to see the flowers. We’ve had another near miss this time…
V
Not exactly a film/movie but its got a pilot movie.There you have it. We’ve done it. We’ve finished. Thank goodness!!The last animal to tick off the BIG five. Leopard has been spotted (LOL). We also manage to get a better…
Driving Miss Daisy
Julie drove Matilda today…..OMG (in true teenage style)She drove exactly 100 Km….. of the 50,000Km we’ve driven so far. In honor of the event I decided to start messing around with the camera (as she does) and also cut my…
Metropolis For Those That Just Don’t Get It
OK so it wasn’t obvious but its not far off. Julie says the top has shrunk in the wash. I think she’s feeding triplets….
50000 Leagues Under The Sea
OK so its 20,000 leagues but today we passed 50,000km. 10 Months into our journey and not even half way round or half way through. We’ve started preparing for a trip home to do Administration. Dentists, Doctors, Tax Return, Visit…
Metropolis
Can you guess why the title is the famous Metropolis ??Anyhow some pictures of Fish River and a few other places. Today we camp at Upington and the reasonable price of 60rand pppn. Two other Landies in the camp, both Pumas.…
Grand Canyon
Its not quite the Grand Canyon (but its a good film) although Fish River Canyon is better to look at in my opinion. The river shows its curves more and so it gets a thumbs up. Its typical NWR prices at…
