Day 1 of the big Adventure

Well i am actually writing this on Day 3 - this is the first. Hance i have had since we began - it has been absolutely non-stop!

Day 1 was a special day. Not only my 50th birthday but the start of what I hope will be the trip of a lifetime!

Last night we packed all our remaining worldly possessions over to Mike's place (thanks Mike!) and then headed up to the club. One small drama - the motorway was closed due to roadworks so we spent half an hour in traffic. Finally got there at 12:30am. This morning was spent sorting out the camper and storing the car in the back of the hangar, then this afternoon we got the clubhouse ready for the party. Dave had made huge quantities of all our favourite Indian dishes - Libby threw in a big serving of special rice, and Fran contributed a yummy dessert. The meal went really well, Charlie made a really nice speech, and all in all I think it was my best birthday party ever! Thanks everyone for making it happen. An amazing night. Hopefully some photos soon.
