The final prepartions before we depart on our adventure

---

We have spent the last 6 months down sizing, relocating furniture to different places of storage, selling stuff on, cleaning and painting the house we have called home for the last 7 years. Tomorrow we are going to say good bye to the childern here in Alton before catching a train to Gatwick airport staybing over night in a local hotel before starting our jounrey to South America and beyond.

We are slighty apprehensive and very excited at the same time it is like being a child again waitng for Santa Claus to come on christmas eve night full of mixed emotions about what will be.

Everyone family and friends have been suppportive about our mid life crisis or as we like to say gap year

T minus 2 days, its getting close, first stop Madrid airport for 3 hours of retail therapy, then on to Buenos Aires to we hope a hotel pickup, otherwise we are going to have a crash course in Argentinian taxi services.
