    A new blog and a few tweaks to the website. We have been having some problems with the Landy in the Desert but have decided to do all the mechanical work ourselves and so far so good. We are in Cusco at the moment. http://www.a2aexpedition.com/

    A2A Expedition - From Africa to Argentina to Alaska

    Us Africans don't have any clue when it comes to snow. We are going to head up slowly and camp in Mexico for a month or two while we wait for summer in the US. No way we are going to be heading to Alaska in Winter. Southern Argentina and Chile was cold enough for us. -10 in the Atacama was...

    A2A Expedition - From Africa to Argentina to Alaska

    I understand, it is an unfortunate reality. I guess that is why I only took a photo of the flag. We are enjoying Montevideo but have just heard that the Landy will probably be delayed until Monday so we wont be having the camping weekend we were hoping for. But, everything happens for a reason...

The family and I had gone for a long walk along the Montevideon waterfront until we eventually stopped parallel to the...
