The Story So Far ...

We said farewell to our work friends at the RSPCA and BBC on 14 September, farewell to our families on 3 October, and set off for Africa to save cheetahs, decorate school buildings, and look around a bit. After a trip home for Christmas, we headed for South East Asia on 6 January -- where we were stunned by Qatar and Cambodia, taught novice monks in Laos, and acted as security guards at an Elephant Festival. It was back home for four weeks to look after John's dad, before we tangoed our way through five South American countries in fifteen days. We then snooped our way through New Zealand, dipped our toes into Fiji, drove-thru California and were home from home with family in Vancouver.

Now, we are home itself. Fulfilled, happy, and ready to earn the respect of our friends and family by knuckling down and earning some money once again ...

Best of the rest...


Well, seeing as we're enjoying some time back at home with friends and family, I thought I'd take the opportunity - while John's not looking - to post a selection of photos that I liked but somehow didn't quite make it onto the blog.
This lot are from Namibia and South Africa, another lot from east Africa will follow....

  1. Henry those photographs are just magnificent. What wonderful shots of the animals. One question though, the fifth photo, could you possibly have got a picture of the "missing link"?
