We are following your exciting journey with great interest and the fact that you are doing something which has not ever been done before as far as we are aware, makes us very proud of your achievements. I would like to see a bit more of the reactions to the car from the people you have met. The London Scheys. You guys have the eyes of the world on you!

We cannot thank you enough ! Perhaps-maybe it is an explanation and compensation for the missing daily reports about the progress and associated experiences . We hope that you have been able to resolve the charger unit debacle successfully , although some of us would like to know if possible how you did it . Wishing you all the best as you continue the great strides ahead , from Ladysmith ( Kwazulu Natal ) in a very very cold sunny South Africa , where there has been a big snow fall further down south in the little Karoo , Charles and friends . 13th July 2010
Dear RGET ,
the photos are rapturously wonderful and words are
inadequate . We cannot thank you enough !

unit debacle successfully , although some of us would

Wishing you all the best as you continue the great
strides ahead , from Ladysmith ( Kwazulu Natal )
in a very very cold sunny South Africa , where there
has been a big snow fall further down south in the
little Karoo , Charles and friends .

However , the road surface and topographical conditions , the distances between towns and services are going to presumably be the deciding factors , which Route to take until Prince George . Route 97 , while a longer detour seems to offer possibly more services and support since the satellite maps show a larger tapestry of farming lands which could imply more farming services and support and possibly road upgrades for better conveyance of produce . These type of decisions are probably adding value to the Great Adventure that you have undertaken . Hopefully the local people will be able to advise you the best route to follow . Wishing you all the best from Ladysmith ( Kwazulu Natal ) in windy sunny South Africa , where the people have reached fever pitch for the World Cup Football Finals between Spain and Netherlands tonight at 20H30 local South African time , after Germany beat Uruguay 3 : 2 in an exiting match last night . The Cycling Tour de France is now starting to come in focus as the World Cup is winding down and the highs of 31 days of football are prompting people to ask what will they do when all the previous excitement has ended , Charles and friends . Dear RGET ,
you seem to have reached a milestone by arriving at
Watson Lake , from where you will have to “ limp ”
onwards with some strategic choices , whether to follow
Route 37 or Route 97 which have some significant detours
around the Spatsizi Plateau Wilderness Provincial Park and
the Northern Rocky Mountains Provincial Park which are as
big as some political provinces elsewhere .

The Cycling Tour de France is now starting to come in focus

Spanish flags are all over the city and there is no other discussion than football. The San Fermin traditional festival (Runninig with the Bulls)which takes place in Pablona, northern Spain) took its toll:One person died and 2 got injured. You guys would come across so much forests,green and water so you will start.... appreciating Sahara! Take care and watch out from the bears. Which team the group will be betting on tonight?
