| 5th May 2008 Peregrine | Southern Africa - From: Kruger National Park I've enjoyed your last several entries, especially since I did a self-safari in 2000 with a similar itinerary. Amazing places, all of them! Can't wait to visit Kruger again in a couple months. What camp did you stay at in the Okavango? |
| 5th May 2008 hauteboy | - From: Canoeing down the Zambezi Great photos, I miss the sunrise/sunsets in Africa. We did this on our honeymoon, it brought back great memories! |
| 20th April 2008 Peregrine | Beautiful Country . . . - From: Canoeing down the Zambezi What an adventure! Gonna have to keep this one in mind . . . |
| 13th April 2008 Falc | buzzard - From: Ethiopia - Gondar That's actually a kite, black kite... one of the zillions all over Africa. You probably saw a million or so in Dakar alone. The best indicator is the V in the tail. We are still figuring out what the West African raptor picture is, though.... |
| 13th April 2008 Falc | Missed one - From: Fun with facial hair What about the goatee & moustache version? |
| 9th April 2008 Joyce | Art work - From: Malawi Thank you again for sharing this trip. I would enjoy seeing some pictures of the different art work...:-) The roads look good so did you hear any reasons as to why so many trucks end up on their side? |
| 16th March 2008 Emma | - From: Elephants, Giraffe, Zebra etc. just to let you know, it's called a secretary bird because their feathers were used as quills :) random fact hehe |
| 15th March 2008 Jo | - From: Abijata-Shalla National Park Extreme cook group!!! Yeah, it was fun... |
| 15th March 2008 Jo | - From: Elephants, Giraffe, Zebra etc. It was a bloody nice cardboard box to be fair... |
| 13th March 2008 Warren Olson | - From: Mt.Kenya, etc Glad you made it to Nairobi fine. Southern Ethiopia sounds pretty fascinating. I've mostly read things about Ethiopia north of Addis but did recently read a book on African Ceremonies which featured the tribe with the lip plates and the one with the bull jumping ceremony - so very interesting. Did you travel in convoy from the border to Marsabit? It was just west of Marsabit on the road to Lake Turkana that my truck (local, not Drago) got attacked by bandits in 2001. Hope it continues to be fun. I'm busy planning my next travels. Warren |
| 12th March 2008 Sonya | - From: Elephants, Giraffe, Zebra etc. Wow! These sure beat the bear we saw this summer! |
| 12th March 2008 carla | WOW - From: Nearly half-way done I've been following along your guys journey/adventure and I am still amazed at all you guys have done!! This is the most interesting story i've had to live vicariously through and I appreciate you guys taking the time to document it. Thanks and enjoy the next half!! Love Carla |
| 20th February 2008 Scott Fleming | Don't worry, the 2nd half is always better - From: Nearly half-way done Hey guys, great updates! Linds and I are reading when we get a chance here and you've seen & done some amazing things! I'm writing from Krabi, in southern Thailand and we're heading to Bangkok then Cambodia in the next couple of days. I can't believe we have only under two weeks left! I'm sure your first half has gone just as fast. When you guys get back, lets go for wings and beers at the Regal Begal. That will cure what ails the weary traveller. Take care! Scott & Linds |
| 16th February 2008 Patricia Wood | Hello to Jordan & Kathie - From: Nearly half-way done I used to work with your Mother, Jordan and she gave me this address when she sent a card at Christmas. I have really enjoyed signing in every few days and catching up with your wonderful adventure. |
| 8th February 2008 Joyce | - From: Ethiopia - Gondar It looks so peaceful, clean and orderly... You two are actually looking more relaxed/refreshed then when you started this trip... Thank you for shareing all of this - have really enjoyed it and look forward to the next batch of pictures and comments. Joyce |
| 8th February 2008 Warren Olson | Robin's Shirt - From: Semien Mountains - Part 2 Your "People 6" Entry - It looks like Robin's red shirt is fading even further. |
| 24th January 2008 Warren Olson | Market Name - From: Morning market I was told the market's name was Lafiabougou |
| 24th January 2008 Warren Olson | Sudanese Border - From: Ferry to Wadi Halfa I always used to wonder what was on the other side of that border every time I went to Abu Simbel. Very interesting! |
| 24th January 2008 Warren Olson | Very Cool! - From: Temple Overload!! Now I want to see Sudan. Looking forward to the Ethiopia pics - went there in one of my dreams a few months ago. |
| 30th December 2007 Anselmo | You're on Daphne with Driver Ben!! - From: Cameroon: Fix your roads! I happened on your blog by chance, and noticed that you're traveling on Daphne, and with Ben. That's fantastic. I spent two months in Central Asia last summer on that truck with Ben, and had a great time. Please say hi to Ben from Anselmo. Enjoy your trip! |
| 28th December 2007 uwem | - From: Afi Mountains Drill Ranch great pictures. a part of home i'm yet to visit. thanks for sharing |
| 6th December 2007 Ann | Hair - From: Fun with facial hair My vote is for the original |
| 5th December 2007 Jim Szpajcher | Facial Hair - From: Fun with facial hair Really, I felt the "Porn Star" look has a real Cheech Marin (Born in East L.A.) look to it. It gets my vote - whatever movie theme one is renting. I'd expect no less from a server at Taco Bell. "Trailer trash" reminds me of some Western. I'd recommend a brace of Colt Peacemakers, slung low, with a wide brimmed hat and perhaps crossed bandoliers... On the other hand, the full beard has a sort of Middle Eastern look to it, and with so much happening there, I'd call it the "Current Affairs" style. Thanks for the in-depth presentation on shaving. :-) |
| 6th November 2007 draak | Say hi to Dave from us! - From: Bushcamp We were both amused to see your blog. We have just done 3 months with Dave the Hat in South America. It was really neat to see your photos. If you are still with Dave say hi from us. Great guy! Enjoy your trip. Pieter and Rae. |

| 18th October 2007 Jim Szpajcher | Adventure photography - From: Essouira Kathie and Jordan - You guys have posted some wonderful images. It is obvious that you have been alert for opportunities to both 1. copiously record activities and sights which form a defining portion of your travel experience, and 2. pause to enjoy the magnificence of some special settings, given your limitations with regard to time, light and season. Congratulations to you both for so diligently posting your experience with we who are not with you. It is obvious that you are investing a considerable degree of time when the opportunity arises to share. Thanks so much for taking the time. Jim |
