Hi There,

I realise being on a trip you are busy, when you have time is there chance you could fill me in with the details on traveling through Egypt, what documentation do you need for vehicle etc.

I have tried consulate 5 times with no info.

I am driving from Cape To Cairo.

Good luck on ya tour.

Regards

Justin

GREAT ACHIEVEMENT Well done and God Bless. love mich patrick steven and sarah.

Hello you two - hope you are still doing this blogsite thingie! Your last message, dated 29 April arrived here today!! Something went awry somewhere ...

Say "Hi!" to Luisa for me!

You done it - and you've MADE it! Incredible experience as we all travelled with you through your photographs and message board. Wow! Soon you will be back in the good old RSA ... in time for the World Cup! Take care and stay alert.

Will catch up with you once you get back home - meanwhile, bon voyage back home.

Love and Light, Maria & Donald.

Dear John and Marina,

I feel as though I have been a very silent passenger though still following and enjoying your adventure from the back seat behind my laptop. I have been doing my own little bit of travelling locally, Karoo and at the end of the month Northern Cape in my own old 4X4 - Defender. It must be strange to be heading homewards again but maybe it is starting to feel like its time to be migrating south. I hope that you continue to enjoy your time away and safe travelling.

Love Di

sorry didn't realise you were with eugene and luisa....send my regards!

Hi guys!!! Not sure if I got the sum right??? A few glasses of wine and I can't add anymore!!

I haven't sent a message in a while, but still following your progress and wondering if you missing home yet???? Nearly time to get here. The UK pics look great and I am sure you had a good time meeting with family. Pity about the Iceland thing. But it is a good thing it happened now - imagine this kind of thing extending your trip just a little bit longer?? I wouldn't mind - you have travelled so far - may as well fit Russia in while you there?? Okay jokes aside, I am looking forward to your return - so hurry on 28 May!!

Lots of love

Sim
