Motorcycle Diaries

35,000 Km Motorcycle Diaries - From Aug 04 to Feb 05 across Europe, Middle East and Africa. Started in Stuttgart Germany and ended in Cape Town, SA. This was my second trip across Africa, which I enjoy travelling through BECAUSE it is the toughest continent to cross on the planet, going through by far the poorest countries in the world, where you are constantly amazed at how generous the people are, and how the children constantly smile even though they have so little.

Countries on this trip included Germany, Austria, Italy, Greece (including Crete and Rhodes islands), Turkey, Syria, Jordan, Egypt, Sudan, Ethiopia, Kenya, Uganda, Rwanda, Burundi,Tanzania, Mozambique Zimbabwe, Namibia, Botswana, Swaziland and South Africa. This is a fairly detailed diary. You need to click on to the second and third pages to read it all
