This is a site for friends and family of me, (Dan) and Jo chronicling our trip from Cape Town to England during mid 2009. The site name is taken from our means of transport, Rhubarb - a 1998 Land Rover Defender. He's helpfully got his name badge on in the photo. On our previous trip in him he was as often truculent as he was helpful. He can be forgiven this as he certainly wasn't the only one who had a sulk from time to time.

We are planning on the taking the following route listed by country:
South Africa
Lesotho
EDIT: Swaziland
Mozambique
EDIT: Zimbabwe
Malawi
Tanzania
Rwanda
Uganda
Kenya
Sudan
Egypt
Jordan
EDIT: Syria
Turkey
Greece
Italy
France
At this point depending on time/money/still talking to each other we can either drive through Libya (whacky Gaddaffi,) Algeria, Morocco and across to Spain and France or get a boat to Greece and drive back from there. Option three is to Jordan, Syria and Turkey. There is, of course, the very real possibility that one or other of us will be safely home via a nice fast comfy 'plane long before we have to make this decision.
