Under a week to go now and everything is starting to fall in place. All visas, hotels and ferries are booked. The car is in for servicing (8000 Riyals - GBP 1200 for 4 new tyres- Ouch !!). The situation in Greece is causing some concern. I have to watch what happens there to gauge whether the border with Turkey will be open when I get there. Plan 'B' is in place which involves a slight diversion and taking the ferry from Turkey instead.
I am looking forward to Friday and actually getting underway. As the excitement builds, so does the trepidation at an undertaking of this size. I realise that you can't mitigate every possible risk on this trip; and will have to improvise at some stage if something goes wrong.
