New Road Trip Under Construction!

New Road Trip Under Construction!

Just so you know what's coming...

Donna Odete* and Granddaughter (hers, not mine) are discussing women's stuff over dinner.

"I need a break," complains Granddaughter.

"Klein Kariba," quoth I. 

(Klein "Klane" means small; Kariba is a lake with a waterfall; Klein Kariba is a holiday resort named after, but nowhere near, the aforegoing.)

All agree (as in: none dissent).

So after the all-important matter of who feeds the dogs gets settled, I raise a matter of principle: "You two drive; I ride."

They love driving. I manage to endure riding.

Thus, the seed is sown

In the near-as-possible future, bearing in mind me and my wallet are still comatose from the last trip, plus I need a new helmet, plus new tyres, plus the South African economy is in a recession that makes 1929 look like a picnic... 

Oh bugger the excuses, let's start planning.

In the foreseeable future I shall be regaling you with the narrative of my forthcoming 2-wheeled pub crawl through the Blue Mountains.

Until then, keep it rubber side down.

*Wife is Portuguese. In Pora you don't just say "Sheila", you say "Miz Sheila". So she's not just Odete, she's Donna Odete.
