Day 10 but it seems like day 76: My head hurts nearly as much as my calves do after climbing out of that cave the other day. Can't think why my head hurts but I imagine it has something to do with the sound those bears were making last night!!! I think they had tickets to a chainsaw convention!!!!!!!!! Up nice and early again because we are all over 40 and our bladders, not our alarm clocks, dictate getting up time. Nathan, having surprisingly survived the night,...

Day 9: I had a surprisingly good nights sleep considering I was laying on tarmac and using a bottle for a pillow but I obviously had that "he's a serial killer" look about me so I wasn't disturbed. I got my ticket and got in the queue ready to board. I was actually looking forward to being back in Spain which is something I'd not planned on doing for a while but hey. I was keen to rejoin my two fellow travellers as the text messages I'd received had mentioned bee...

Day 8: Mixed emotions this morning. I seem to be really missing the company of those really annoying bears.

We then had to take a run up on our bikes to make it out of the underground garage then about 10 yards up the street where we then started to dismantle Darrens bike to see if w...

Day 6 I think: Well what a day. Woke up to the sound of those bears again but I'm getting used to them so not too bad. Got the kettle on and waited for the other two Not Top Gear travellers to silence the bears! All went well and we were packing away our stuff when Sparky asked the question "has anyone seen my bike keys?" After much searching, re searching and having a pretty hard look everywhere we had to admit defeat and just assumed the bears had knicked them!...
