Well! time for another little ramble. Ive just been looking through the blogs of some of the young travelers on the offexploring site they are amazing, travelling thousands of miles through wilderness, mountains, jungles and desserts. One of the bloggers was concerned that she was being woken up at night by hyienas in their camp! I feel such a fraud here in the heart of rural Hampshire where the height of excitement is a drive down to Bournemouth to see Doddy! Mind you we did see some animals on the streets outside the clubs on the way back at 1:00a.m.! The most ferocious thing Ive seen today was a herd of killer rabbits in Winchester Street, and some evil looking rooks in Big Wood

Still just 13 days to go and we will be joining the ranks of the brave and foolhardy, thousands of miles from home finding out first hand about other parts of the planet we live on.
