Long Way Down

I am sure I must have commented on this over the winter.. I found myself sucked into the Long Way Round series on DVD.  It is a bit addicitve if you like a little Ewan McGregor and Stereophonics as a soundtrack...
So now I am watching Long Way Down.  It is slightly less entertaining.  I dont know why - I think because I am not finding the trip through Africa to be as interesting.  I dont know why I found the trek through Europe and Asia more interesting - maybe because I didnt know what to expect.

But with Africa you expect to see zebras, elephants, and monkeys.  And they keep saying I have never seen an _____ in the wild before.  Well isnt that why you are in Africa?  To see all that?  And how many in the audience have seen these wild animals in the wild?  Maybe it was that IMAX movie about Africa I saw in ATL YEARS AND YEARS AGO that ruined the surprise for me. 
Of course the 2008 version of Libya and Egypt was amazing in comparison to today's news.  And the fact that the Americans traveling with him are having different difficulties with some of the countires.

Anyways this is what the little guy and I are up to after this morning's big workout.
12 miles on bike, 2 miles on foot, not too sure how long that ride was.
Yes, I know I am supposed to go look at new bikes today - but I dont really feel like parting with any money today so why bother.
Instead I will just tinker around here...  Unpack.  Thaw out some food from the freezing for dinner.  And actually do some work... 
AND GO TO BED EARLY!!! to do it all over again...
