It knows it must run faster than the slowest gazelle, or it will starve. It doesn't matter whether you're a lion or gazelle - when the sun comes up, you'd better be running." - Anonymous

The beginning....

Well, the earth as we know it was created in 6 days.... and that is how we started. 6 like minded people, all with a lust to explore the most intriguing continent on earth in one room... brainstorming ideas and deciding who will take ownership of what. Some pivotal points were decided upon:

• Climb Kilimanjaro
• Mix both the explored with the unexplored
• Ensure we are prepared enough for most eventualities and under prepared enough to allow for serendipitous events
• HAVE FUN NO MATTER WHAT
• Explore areas we may never get to again in our lives
• Attempt to determine whether smuggling a staffie all the way through is at all possible

Lots of ideas were thrown around, some concerns viced but in the end the next target was decided upon. EVERYONE to submit a preferred route by 30th September for a vote in the next meeting as well as a list of what equipment we do have thus far.

Below are the fruits of our initial mental labour... slightly red wine smeared but boerewors fueled!

Good times team!
