As title suggests, the objective of the trip is to get from Cardiff to Cape Town and back again...there is a bit of cheating involved, as I'll be flying to Nairobi first, so technically the trip should be called Nairobi to Cape Town but it just didn't sound as good!

Anyway, I'll be leaving the UK early in July to join some other crazy souls in a 'big yellow' truck making its way south from the equator through eight countries to the tip of the African continent.

I've outlined the basic 73 day route on the map below however this being Africa things really might not (or should I say won't) always go to plans! Already the Zimbabwe section of the map is outdated as we will now re-route through Zambia, after a Foreign Office warning.

I'll try to keep the map updated as we move along and get some photos and videos up if I can find enough internet cafés?

See you all in October.....
