Hi Folks, just a quick note to say this blog will be up and running on 15 April 2008, which is the date we set off on our epic journey. So far its all been a gradual build up, some people joined the expedition 14 months ago and so the build up has been a long one. Last weekend we had a group gathering, so everybody got to meet the crew and fellow travellers. Over lunch and a couple of drinks we ran through the plan and answered any questions people had, as well as a quick slide show of some of the highlights of the route from past tours to get everybody really excited. Then it was on to visas, as Odyssey will run all the applications for everybody to make sure it all runs to schedule.
As per normal this style of trip has drawn a great group of people ready to really explore and appreciate this great journey. So if you are thinking of joining us for the 2009 trip, keep an eye on this blog to get an idea, but remember to book early, as 7 seats are already taken for the 2009 trip and we expect the trip to full up early. Cannot wait to hit the road, and Penelope, our trusty expedition vehicle, is ready to role. Picures coming to the website soon. http://www.odysseyoverland.co.uk/
