The visas arrived yesterday, now everything is in place. We had a nice Italian meal with the the children for Peggys Birthday. And it rained. and rained.
We wonder about how how different everything will be. We are looking forward to the adventure....

Tom - You might want to consider picking up one of these before you embark:
ReplyDeleteThe USD$880 Solara Field Tracker 2100 is a handheld GPS with text messaging – no voice, no video, no apps, just text. This may not seem a particularly enticing value proposition, particularly when you consider the USD$30 a month subscription fee, but wait … there's more! As it operates over the Iridium satellite network, which offers truly global coverage, it means you can stay in touch even if you're trekking the Himalayas, or the Silk road or Antarctica. Throw in extreme ruggedness, automatic position reporting and a two-way Emergency Alert notification system and it's a very compelling proposition if you're an adventurer who enjoys getting well off the beaten track.
